Bank Code for Westpac in account set up

Question

I am trying to arrange bank feeds from Westpac.  Can anyone tell me what the Bank Code in the set up of a new bank account in MYOB. The Direct ID seems to be 00000 for all banks but the code changes but cannot find it anywhere.

Thanks Genreve, I found the information I needed.

FYI for anyone else - When creating a new bank account in the Chart of Accounts, where it asks for Bank Code and Direct User Entry ID if using the bank feeds or electronic payments, the Direct User Entry ID is always 00000 and the Bank Code for Westpac is WBC (CBA for Commonwealth & ANZ for ANZ)

Hi @BevColeman

Thanks for posting.

If the bank code is being asked by the AccountRIght we might be talking about the MYOB bank feed reference number. This is the number generated by your online banking to input into the portal to apply for bank feed. Here is a useful Help article Setting up a bank feed for a Westpac account, this will help you in the whole process of applying for a bank feed.

If you need further assistance or have any clarifications, don't hesitate to reply to this thread.

Cheers
