Basic facts:

The Business Identifier Code (BIC) may still be required until 1 February 2014 
for domestic payments and 1 February 2016 for cross-border payments. Member 
States may defer the requirement relating to the provision of the BIC for 
national payment transactions until 1 February 2016.

This is expressed differently in different bank's specifications. One bank 
says: the BIC field is ignored, don't use it. Another bank says: the field is 
optional. You should use it if the bank cannot determine the BIC by itself.

I know it's not that well specified, but it seems to me that there is even less 
need for the bank to know the BIC of their own customers. Then again, it seems 
just good practice if the company BIC were stored properly in OpenERP (I think 
it is printed by default in the standard report footer). Maybe this is 
something that can be implemented as a contraint in the not_required module.
