Whitelist bank account check

Whitelist is an application that allows you to verify whether a Supplier (SUP) is an active, registered VAT payer and whether a specific bank account is registered as belonging to the VAT taxpayer. The application enables real-time bank account verification and status history. The returned results from the verification can be either a pass or fail.

To open the Whitelist application, enter PLWHITELIST in the Program field and press ENTER.

There are three options for verification available in the Whitelist (PLWHITELIST) application.

  1. Bank accounts with pending payments

  2. Customer

  3. Supplier

Bank accounts with pending payments

The Whitelist (PLWHITELIST) application simplifies verification during the payment process.

  1. Select the Bank accounts with pending payments option.

  2. Select the row, then select the bank account number from the drop-down list. The account number must have been entered in the supplier information of the Supplier (SUP).

    • If the customer or supplier does not have a bank account set up in the Customer (CUS) or Supplier (SUP) applications, the verification returns an error. To successfully verify the customer or supplier, enter the missing bank account number in the Customer (CUS) or Supplier (SUP) applications record and redo the verification.

  3. The history of queries for previous verifications is always displayed. You do not have to run a new query to view this information.

Verify a Supplier (SUP)
  1. Select the Supplier option in the Whitelist (PLWHITELIST) application to verify the account status or status history of a Supplier (SUP).

  2. Select the line, then select the bank account number from the drop-down list. The supplier account number must have been entered in the supplier information of the Supplier (SUP).

  3. To verify the supplier, select Add new. A new line is created with the result of the verification of the account number for the supplier. The verification history is also displayed, with information about the user performing the verification. All queries are recorded in the status history as Reported, which means that the verification was successful or UnReported, which means that the verification failed.

  4. The history of queries verifying the supplier is always displayed. You need not run another query to view this information.

The Polish Whitelist extension

To enable the Polish Whitelist bank account check solution, the user must activate the corresponding extension in the MARKETPLACE.

There are three key columns in the Supplier (SUP) application related to the Whitelist solution:

  • The Exists on white list column indicates whether a bank account is listed on the Whitelist of VAT taxpayers.

  • The Last positive white list check column displays the date and time of the most recent positive validation of the bank account on the VAT Whitelist.

  • The account verification icon allows users to initiate a verification of the bank account on the Whitelist.

Whitelist validation process

If a bank account is successfully validated, the Exists on white list and Last positive white list check columns will display the corresponding positive validation details.

Alerts for Suppliers (SUP) with country code PL

When the extension is enabled and the Suppliers (SUP) country code is PL, the following alert boxes may appear:

  • Whitelist is not published alert appears when the database does not contain data for the current day. This could be due to delays or issues on the governments side, such as a late publication of the data file.

  • Whitelist validation failed alert is shown when the database is up to date, but at least one Polish bank account is not listed on the VAT Whitelist.

  • Whitelist validation succe... alert appears when all Polish bank accounts are successfully validated on the VAT Whitelist.

Alert boxes will not appear if there is no Polish bank account, the VAT registration number is empty, the suppliers country code is not PL, and the extension is disabled.

Payment options for non-validated accounts

If the Allow to continue payment even if bank account is not validated through whitelist checkbox is checked, payments can be made to a Suppliers (SUP) bank account, even if it has not been successfully validated through the VAT Whitelist.
