[2] Create Payment Request or requests, created payment requests are shown in the second
half of screen for Open Payment Requests

Several further tips:
1.       System will create organization unit (t-code PPOCE) based on Bank Account Group
for all non-bank account nodes when clicking Create Cash Pool for the first time.
a.       As company code is mandatory attribute for organization unit, system will
pick the company codes of all bank accounts that belong to this parent node,
which leads to the restriction that all bank accounts belonging to the same
node shall belong to one company code, otherwise, organization unit cannot
be created successfully.
b.      Since organization unit creation only works when clicking Create Cash Pool
for the first time, if after creating one cash pool, end user modifies the bank
account group again, for example, adding one new parent node and bank
accounts, this newly added node will not create organization unit, thus
cannot be used in cash pool definition.
2.       You can create more than one cash pools based on one bank account group, but
one bank account cannot only be used as Target Account (Leading Account) in one
cash pool.
3.       Bank Account can be used as Source Account (Participating Account) in other cash
pool even if it is used as Target Account in one cash pool.
4.       Only one-level cash pool can be defined with one Target Account and multiple
Source Accounts.
5.       Customizing required: relevant configurations for payment request and payment
