Taking the snippet below as an example. If I try to add a Property below My
Bank using C-c C-x p I am offered completions for the Properties defined

misunderstanding the scope of the Columns directive?
The COLUMN property just defines the column view, not the properties
themselves. When you set a property with `C-c C-x p', the prompt offers
completion over all the properties that are found in the current buffer.
Does that answer your question?
Thanks Bastien. Yes and no:) In my example if I type ACC in the mini
buffer Emacs returns No Match, whereas I assume it should offer
ACCOUNTNO as a completion.
This is not the current behavior.
You have to actually use a property as a property (not as a column in
the :COLUMNS: property) so that the prompt offers it for completion.
But I agree it would be useful if Org were recognizing values in
:COLUMNS: as properties, even when they are not yet in use.
Yes, I just fixed this, thanks.
