FF_5 : Electronic Bank Statement.

Dear All,
Need to get some inputs regarding t-code FF_5 (EBS).
1. When we import electronic bank statement (swift format) where is the entries are getting stored in the table level.
2. Can we create some customized field in the program through IMG, if so how to we do that.
A stet by step procedure is required.
Best Regards,
Rajagopalan

2. Can we create some customized field in the program through IMG, if so how to we do that.
please have a look at note 494777. there are several user exits, open-fi events, badi, .. for enhancements in the electronic bank statement process. maybe you can avoid a modification in the tables with these enhancements. moreover you can use BDC fields in transaction FEBAN (subsequent processing), if you want to fill certain fields in the posting, which are not included in FEBAN.
For Example: fill the taxcode in the subledger posting
("sorry, can't remember all the fields by heart")
BDC-fieldvalue1 = V1
BDC-fieldname1 = BSEG-MWSKZ
BDC-("account type") = 1 (first line, subledger posting)

Format file problem uploading electronic bank statement files FF_5 RFEBKA00

hello
I am facing a problem when uploading electronic bank statement files with the file format. The situation is as follows:
1- Electronic bank statement files are sent by FTP from the bank to a certain directory in AL11
2- we have developed a "z" program that just picks electronic bank statement files from AL11 directory and process them using standard FF_5 (RFEBKA00) program.
3- When processing some files had an error, when debugging we have verified that errors are caused by some "special" characters non Unicode as "®" (=Hex'AE') with UTF-8, a '#' is displayed.
SAP answers a question as follows:
AL11 is designed to display os-files (log-files, trace-files etc.)
from within the SAP-system for supporting purposes in order not to
logon to the os itself.
It was not designed to display any file-content in the system created
with any code-page.
AL11 opens the file in textmode with encoding option default, which
means UTF-8 in a unicode system and NON-UNICODE in the other case.
You cannot change this setting.
If you have the need to specify these options, depending on your files,
you can make a copy of report RSWATCH0 and customize the OPEN-statement
to yor needs.
On a Unicode system, the files need to be in Unicode format (UTF-8).
Eg:When you interpret a non-Unicode "®" (=Hex'AE') with UTF-8, a '#' is
displayed.
Case 1:
Who is creating those files? Are these files
1) created by you
2) are they written by a SAP application?
==>There are the notes 752835 and 747615 for cases like these.
In case 2) it may be that the application responsible for the file
download (not AL11!) should be the problem, considering note 752835.
There is also the possibility for you to convert the file to the correct format using our tool RSCP_CONVERT_FILE (note 747615).
System administrator has told me to copy standard RFEBKA00 program and modify the OPEN-statement but I am not agree because I think that the problem is when generating the files in bank's system and/or sending the files to SAP by FTP.
Does any body face a problem like this before? Any ideas?
Thanks a lot

Hello,
The files that are available in AL11 are in Unicode.
Can you convert them to text by using the following method and then try:
You must have mapped this directory and having access.
Right click on file
Open with: Microsoft Office Word
Then the pop-up comes: File conversion - bacs
Select Other encoding radio button
Then select "Unicode" from list
and say OK
Now the file is being opened in readable format:
File SAVE as PLAIN TEXT
Save the file in the same folder that you are referring to in AL11
Now if you try with this .txt file, it should work in FF_5
Thanks,
Ravi

Electronic Bank Statement (FF_5)

Automatic Import of Electronic Bank Statements (EBS)

Hi SAP Gurus,
We want to solve the following issue:
Daily we receive multiple Electronic Bank Statements by means of banking Communication Software (BCS).
Those EBS files are stored on our SAP Application Server, filetype = SWIFT MT940 format,
and the file name contains a date and time stamp.
File name example: MT940.90910077527_20101124_210421_167660
Currently the import of these EBS-files is done manually via transaction FF_5 (program: RFEBKA00).
We want to automate this import process.
Every time a new EBS-files arrives (in a specific directory) on the application sever
a signal (including the filename) should be send to SAP, so SAP knows there is a new EBS-file available for import.
SAP now runs program RFEBKA00, with the provide filename, in the background.
Any ideas how to do this?
Some tech. info:
Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 64-bit
Oracle 10.2.0.4
SAP R/3 Enterprise 47x200
Thanks,
Roger Vanaubel

Hi
I think there are several ways to do it. In our case, we have a program which concatenates all received files into a single file and which launches RFEBKA00. It runs at fixed time, outside the working hours of accounting clerks. It is possible to trigger the program at file receipt, but there are problems if somebody is working in FEBA at the same time RFEBKA00 is working on the same bank account: then RFEBKA00 stops without doing all postings.
If you trigger RFEBKA00 at file receipt, you may have several jobs running in parallel, and if 2 bank statements received in separate files are for the same account, you will have the same problem.

Hi,
I am facing problem with clearing the cheque when uploaded bank statement through FF_5 (electronic)
If I use the following file, there is no problem in clearing the cheque (this prepared by me for test purpose)

The following is the real file (where it is failing to recognise the cheque number)

88, ITEMS 027827
I tested interpretation algorithms 11 and 13, but still not use.
Can you please tell how can I clear the items in sub account (cheque outgoing account) based on the cheque number when I upload the bank statement.
Any valid suggestions will be highly apprecicated.
Regards,
Ravi

Thank you very much for your answer.
I tested with leading exactly same as FCHN but still somehow it is not working. Changing the electronic bank statement manually may not be possible due to security concern. They the bank statement is week and it has high volume of entries.

Issue with electronic bank statement upload

Hi All,
          Presently I face an inssue in posting electronic bank statement upload (Tcode - ff_5).
The scenario goes like this.
         First we do payment to vendor using 'f110' transaction.Here the document currency is different from local currency.Let us say we paid 100 EBP i.e, approximately 177 USD.
After the payment we get statement from Bank (in this case BAI format).In the bank statement due to exchange rate difference the amount will not be exactly 177 USD but slightly different like 185 USD or may be 170 USD.
       At this point we have to upload this statement using transaction 'FF_5' to system.Here obviously the differential amount goes to the system ( 185 USD or 170 USD).
Now the issue is we have to post this difference amount like USD 8 or USD 7 to a specific GL account ( 11800 or any other GL acc number ).
The 'FF_5' transaction updates the tables 'FEBKO,FEBEP' by using the programs 'RFEBBU00',
'RFEBBU10'.There is an exit also like 'FEB00001'. We can put this difference amount in one of the fields of FEBEP table by using this exit.
   But the point I don't know is how to post this difeerence amount 8 or 7 USD to a specific G/l account ? I could not locate in the above program 'RFEBBU00' where the posting happens ?
Thanks for any help.
Vinod.

Hi Sharaad & Naga,
                     Thanks for the replies.One more doubt, Will I have to use these function modules inside the exit or do I need to change the sap standard program to incorporate these FM calls ?
Thanks
Vinod.

Electronic bank statement Germany

Dear all,
I should configure electronic bank statement for a German customer that should change from one system to SAP. Their format on electronic bank statement is MT940 and in the file they have all transactions that appeared on their bank statement; incoming payments (both manual and by direct debit), outgoing payments (both manual and automatic paymens by file) and other costs as bank fee (total to about 5 cost accounts).
When looking at transaction FF_5 i have some questions:
1. I guess in Germany, when having format MT940, I don´t need to convert the file in FEBC?
2. In FF_5 - elect. bank statement format should be entered, which one should I use?:
G SWIFT MT940- Field 86: Structure Recgnized automatically
I SWIFT MT940 international format (field 86 unstructured)
or
S SWIFT MT940 with field 86 structured?
3. What is the difference by statement file and line item file, should I have both? Today, in their current system, they only import one file from bank, so if I only have one file, which field to use?
Thanks in advance!
Best Regards L

Hi,
The ?20, ?21, ... are in the record beginning with :86:.
Here is an example:
:86:835?00PAIEMENT?20FRE / 22548?31xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx?32xxxxxxxx
In most cases, you have ?00 and ?20 but there are other possible codes like ?21, ?22, ?23, ?31, ?32, ...
Eventually, the ? may be replaced by another character but I think it is not frequent. In this case, the first character after the 3 digits following :86: is the character replacing the ?.
Look at your MT940 files and you will see the presence or absence of these ?00, ?20, ?21, ... codes in record :86:.
If there are present, it is structured; if not unstructured.

Electronic bank statement upload to SAP....?

HI experts,
plz can any body pass some inputs on electronic bank statement.

we try to use the TCODE: FF_5 to import the statement.
but in that tcode need to specify the statement file and line item files.

if u have any documentation and file formats please send i to me to sandhya.rani at issconsulting.net
thank you very much...
Sandhya Reddy.

Hi Sandhya,
For this you need to do a lot off customizing and testing, perhaps to imlement an user exit.
When you have activated EA-FIN you have more options.
The setup is different by country, bank, record format,.
Have a look in customing and click on help. There are some examples available.
SPRO: Financial Accounting /Bank Accounting/ Business Transactions /Payment Transactions /Manual Bank Statement
The first step is to look to your bank statements from the last year and write down all possible cases and how you post it. (Like customer invoice, bank transaction code XXX in the text you will found the invoice number, bank costs, interest, slaery payments,......)
Based on this you can set-up the rule's (customizing - User exit)

Electronic Bank Statement - Check register not updated with encashment date

I need help in Electronic Bank Statement. After uploading the bank statement file, i got the document number posted, but when i looked in Check register for the checks it's still showing up as outstanding check and there is no encashment date updated with this check.
We received file from bank in BAI format and use t.code ff_5 to upload the bank statement file. Algorithm 011 already assigned in Config. Please help me to solve this issue.

Encashment field did not get updated....
This happens to us in the following instance...
Our checks numbers are as follows with zeroes in front... 0000000121558
The BAI file from the bank has the number listed as 121558. We have a process to convert the BAI file to a .txt format and add seven zeroes in front of the number in the file before processing. We had a new user that forgot this step. Without the zeroes added to the file to match the check numbers, our encashment field did not get updated. We had to do it manually.

Electronic Bank Statement BAI file format

Hi,
I am trying to upload electronic bank statement with BAI file format. When I select the file and executed in FF_5, it is not giving any error. Nothing is happening. The same file I have used I was able to upload it. I am searching where it went. I have maintained complete configuration.
Then I have prepared a simple file on my own in text format, that simple file is working fine and able to upload.
Can somebody have any idea why it might have gone wrong?
Thanks in advance.
Ravi

all the file lines are filled with " in the beginning and at the end. Then I replace all those " values and I am able to upload the file. I am not sure how these " values are placed in the file.

Electronic Bank Statement Reconciliation

Hi,
I'm currently implementing Electronic Bank Statement Reconciliation in SAP 6.0. I'm using the Elect. bank statement format I (SWIFT MT940 international format (field 86 unstructured)).
The bank specification for this format has several operations, like NDEB (Debit) and NLEV (take cash from account), for instance. If I have two open items, of the same value for each line in the statement using these operations, when I run FF_5 (for importing the statement), the system will not clear those items and post the document.
Is there any way to define which external operations we assign to which internal documents?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Go to t-code: SE38 and give Program name RFEBKA00 and select Variant radio button andd display and type the Variant name and necessary fields and click create button and save.
If you go to FF_5 and select the Variants you can see the variant created.
Hope this helps.

Ashok

Electronic bank statement global setting and search string usage

In electronic bank statement configuration, there are two major places to setup the data
1) Make Global Settings for Electronic Bank Statement
2) Define Search String for Electronic Bank Statement
When bank statements are imported and possessed via FF_5, which of the above configuration will take priority. I'm now using BAI2 bank statement

The Global Settings are required for loading bank statements. The Search String configuration is optional. Search strings are used in to override and/or augment the Global settings.
For example, you might have a BAI code that is used by the bank for 2 (or more) different types of postings. You can only assign one posting rule in the Global Settings. However, you can use a search string to assign a different posting rule to transactions based on the note to payee information. So this is a case where the search string overrides the Global settings.
Or you might have transactions that need to be cleared based on reference information from the bank statement. You would assign the posting rule and appropriate interpretation algorithm via the Global Settings, however you might need a search string to get the reference information from the note to payee.
Hope this information helps.
Regards,
Shannon
