Use the new Extract Unmasked Bank Information (ORA_PAY_UNMASKED_ACCOUNT_INFO) process configuration parameter to display either the masked or full numbers in the reports. This new parameter ensures:

Consistency across the three reports

Control how you display the numbers on the reports

The figure shows the following:

The first stream layer shows the table columns that store the account number information.

The second stream layer shows the XML tags and process configuration groups.

The third stream layer shows the RTF fields shown on the report template.

As explained in the previous section, the application stores the account number information in three separate columns.

The new ORA_PAY_UNMASKED_ACCOUNT_INFO process configuration parameter controls the MASKED_ACCOUNT_NUM tag to display:

The masked account number when the process configuration parameter is by default or set to No, or

The clear or full account number when the process configuration parameter is set to Yes.

For example, if you mail a copy of the Third-Party Payment Register to the payee, you may want to mask the sensitive bank account information. If the same report is shared securely within the Payroll Department to verify the bank account details, you may run the report with the process configuration parameter set to Yes.

All the three reports use the MASKED_ACCOUNT_NUM XML field to display the Account Number.

You can use the BANK_ACCOUNT_NUM field if you use an older copy of the three reports. If you do so and you have turned on encryption, you can use the ORA_PAY_DECRYPTED_ACCOUNT_INFO parameter to switch between a clear and truncated number.
