New Bank Import Format

Hi Experts
We have a situation where we had to create a "new bank import format" for a customer through the "SDK". The new import format was created in our "partner" test system. We have tested the new bank import format all seem to be working fine.
My question is how to transfer the "New Bank Import Format" from the "partner" tenant system to the "customer" test tenant as the customer would like to perform there own testing. Do we have to developed the "new bank import format" through the SDK again but within the "Customers" test tenant.
Thank you for you help
Antonio

Hi Antonio,
Each type of transaction on a bank statement is identified by a particular transaction code. These transaction codes are not globally standardized, and they vary from bank to bank as well as from format to format.
The system uses its own internal transaction codes to identify types of bank transactions. To enable the system to interpret the external transaction codes on your electronic bank statements, a mapping between the internal transaction codes and the external transaction codes that are used by each of your banks must be created. The formats that are predelivered with your system already contain this mapping. However, you can edit this mapping to fit your business needs. .
You define your own mapping in the Business Configuration work center, in the Activity List view. In the Fine Tune step, choose Edit Import Formats for Automatic Generated Bank Statements.
If the same set of external transaction codes is used by several of your banks, the same mapping can be used for each of these cases.
For more details, please go to Help Center check ' About Import Formats for Bank Statements'.
Hopefully, this helps!
Regards,
Wendy

Error: Imported bank file format does not correspond to selected format

Hi All,
I am trying to execute FF.5 transaction - Import Electronic Bank Statement - for brazilian bank (Banco do Brasil) but I got an error message no. 8B795 (Imported bank file format does not correspond to selected format), I tried format B (Cobrança/pagar itau) and 1 (Cobrança/pagar bradesco).
The file that I am trying to upload has 400 positions.
Does anyone know which format I should to use?
Regards,
Daniel

Hello,
In my case our bank was sending us a file using the version 085, while we were waiting for one of those: 030, 040, 050, 084 or 087.
Now they will send these files using the version 087.
Thank you!

"Skip" in Import Format not skipping some rows

We are currently using FDM 11.1.1.1.00 and we have a problem with skipping lines based on currency (which is our AccountDescription).
We first extract 28392 lines from Oracle EBS (27921 CAD and 471 USD). No mather what we put in the skip condition, the generated .dat contains exactly the same data (file compared with UltraEdit).
If we set our import format to skip USD lines, 11 of them are still imported. It's the same behavior if we set the import format to skip CAD lines (1136 of them are still imported).
For example this line still load
2021;1115562;50308;E;;006;806050;0000;55365;001;0000;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;USD;P02-13;A;;;2013;3.06;22.08;-19.02
while this one don't
2021;4368;50308;L;;101;000000;0000;21350;001;0000;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;USD;P02-13;A;;;2013;2400000;17100000;-14700000
***(Skip is on field 36 (USD))
I looked at some of the lines still loaded in hexadecimal to find any invisble character or differences in codes used to display characters but they are the same as lines that are skipped.
Three persons has been searching for pattern in data that could lead us to the problem without success.
Any ideas on why thoses lines are still imported ? Where should I look at ?
This may be easy to solve, but I'm new at this stuff (I actually had to learn FDM by myself as all technical administrators knowing it left the company).
Thanks.

Thanks for your help. It works fine with the script. Now it return only the rows I need.
I only inverted the condition so if it's CAD, the function return the value, else it skip the line (to exclude USD, EUR or any other currency it may encounter in the future).
Thanks again.
My script looks like that :
Function SelectCADLines(strField, strRecord)
'UpStream WebLink DM DataPump Import Script:
'Created By: Francois Robineau
'Date Created: 2/19/2013 10:35 AM
'Purpose: Select only CAD (skipping USD, EUR or any other possible currency)
Dim strAccount
'Store first value of account
strAccount = strField
'Check to see if value is CAD
If strAccount = "CAD" Then
'Return line
SelectCADLines=strAccount
Else
'Skip line
Res.PblnSkip=True
End if
End Function

Import Format Audit FDM

I have a few questions around import formats as I have recently seen some new approached that I have not seen before:
Firstly are Import Formats auditable? Can the changes etc be tracked?
Secondly the formats I see are concatenating GL accounts and a few things from the GL to create a new "unique" account that is then mapped in FDM.
E.g.,
in the GL
GL Account
810000 - Revenue $10,000
GL Attribute1
BL - Blue
GL Attribute2
T1 - Dakota
FDM Import
Then creates a source GL Account of
810000BLT1
FDM mapping
810000BLT1 = TO_00001
HFM
TO_00001 $10,000
Has anyone seen this before, where effectively a new account is created from the import format ?

1. I can't make a comment on FDMEE, but what is now 'classic' FDM does not audit the import format table. However if it is a requirement, then i am sure your DBA could sort something out
2. Yes, this is quite common, but perhaps more for the other dimensions rather than the account dimension.

Import Format with Invalid Character

I have accidentally created an Import format with an & which is bad character for FDM. It let me create the import format but now I am recieving a page error everytime I try to access the Import Format screen. This is preventing me from deleting the problematic import format. I have tried to export the import formats, delete the bad one from the xml file and re-import but this did not work.
Any idea of how to delete this import format?

You'll have to fix this through the database. Below are some SQL commands that will work in SQL Server.... Oracle is probably the same idea, but I won't claim those work in PL/SQL as I don't focus on it....
If it's in the Import Format details, you should find it by executing the following SQL :
Safe way (just to double check what you are going to change)
select * from tBhvImpItemfile where ImpfldFixedtext like ('%&%')
Update tBhvImpItemfile set ImpFldFixedText = 'new text here' where ImpSeq = <number(s) returned from first query>
You know what you're doing and don't want to see what records you might impact first
update tbhvImpItemfile set ImpFldFixedText = replace(ImpFldFixedText, '&', '-') where ImpFldFixedText like ('%&%')
If the & is in the Import Format (Name, Description, etc), then you would apply the same idea, but look at the table tBhvImpGroup and most likely the fields ImpGroupKey / ImpGroupDesc......

Import Format script required to work across multiple fields

I am currently constructing an Import Format, and using datapump import scripts on several of the fields to implement specific logic based on the values present. For example:
Function TBNetwork(strField, strRecord)
If Left(strField, 1) = "N" Then
TBNetwork = strField
Else
TBNetwork = "Network N/A"
End If
End Function
However, I need this to also evaluate the values across other fields too, but the default two inputs for the function are strField and strRecord.
How can I achieve this? Can I declare new variables and define as follows?
Dim strCustomer = varValues(23)
Or do I need to look at implementing a different type of script? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

strRecord represents the entire data line from your source file that is currently being processed. You can parse this to get any of the values from your data line to use/evaluate in your script. There is an accelarator script DW.Utilities.fParseString which will do the string parsing for you. As you probably know strField only returns the field from the data file that you have specified in your import format for the associated dimension.

GRC-AC v5.3 SP11 CUP Role Import format issues

Hi All!
Version: GRC-SAC-SAE 5.3_11.0 ( Build ID:05020110 )
Has anyone installed SP11 and found that the CUP Role Export format and Import format no longer match....by a long shot. Also, even you conform your export file with changes to the restrictive import file format, it still does not make any changes.
Has anyone seen this issue? Has anyone resolved this issue?
Much thanks!
John Stephens

Alpesh,
SP11 is only in our development system and you cannot look into certain functionality before you get in installed, except to look over current SAP Notes, SAP SP Release Notes and SAP SDN Forum posts for any current issues.
We are moving from SP8.1 to SP11 since it will solve 12 open SAP Msgs for our SAP GRC-AC system. It has solved 90% of those and has been performing well in tests so far.
We have sent this issue to SAP Support and it is a new issue that has not been reported before.

How can add electronic bank statement format into SAP?

Hi there,
As far as know, SAP allows to add new EBS format in ff_5.
where should i go for this in IMG?
Thanks in advance.
J.

Sorry,.,.
No that's not what i meant.
In FF_5, WE CAN CHOOSE FORMAT OUT OF "Elect. bank statement format".
Currently SAP shows MUTICASH, SWIFT94O something like that.
If i want to add new type of format like MT990, HOW TO DISPLAY ON "Elect. bank statement format" POSSIBLE ENTRY IN FF_5?
Hope it;s more clear to expalin.

Edit standard bank-file formats Payment Engine

Hi Everyone,
Is it possible to edit the standard bank-file formats for payment engine?
In swedish format is not correct in 8.81 PL06
All the formats are in dll-format...
We do not want to recreate a standard format from scratch

Hi Anders,
It seems the .dll formats used for the payment engine are superceded by the new formats created in the EFM Format Definition.
There appears to be no assistance available from anyone to convert the existing formats and I have found no documentation that aids the creation of new formats that will link to the Payment Engine.
If you have found any way around this, please share?
Thanks
The note referred to by Jitin explains how to amend existing BPP formats, of which there are none unless you have created one, and the suggestion to obtain them from support will get you sent back to the forums for support....

Need to Create a new Bank Layout.

In SAP standard Mexican payroll, we have only two bank layouts: Banamex and Santander.
But there are some clients who use another bank to do the transfer.
We need to have this new format to be used by the transaction PC00_M32_FFOT, report RFFOM100.
I have no idea on how to proceed with this requirement.
Please suggest how I create a new bank layout.
Thanks,
Suryakiran D.

Hi Prabhu,
Thanks for the reply.
I just checked HRFORMS, and dont see any existing layout for Mexico, all the data there being related to Payslip.
I also checked PE51 and couldnot find anything specific to bank layout. FBZP is a little clear, I could see the banks assigned to the company codes. But, I dint knew how this helps me.
Can you please detail on how I get these?
Thanks,
Suryakiran D.

Framemaker 10 crashing when trying to import formats

I have been having trouble with Framemaker 10 (most recent version 10.0.2.419) crashing when I try to import formats from one .fm file to another, or more often a group of other files.
I am using Windows 7 64-bit for an OS. The documents are all unstructured. The files are small (less than 10 pages in general), no extensive formating or graphics. If I am importing to a group of files in a book, its 6 or fewer files. I have something like 13 crash reports over the last month, so its not a seldom occurance.
At least a few of the crash reports have also mentioned errors 6382424, and 6383085.
That is all the information I can think of.
Is there someplace I can look up the erorr numbers that are getting reported to me when Frame crashes? I would do self-diagnosing and attempt fixes, but I am having a very difficult time finding information to allow that.
Any help is appreciated.

Too bad about those error codes. I guess I can only use them to determine if I have the same problem over and over or brand new problems.
The files are nearly all unqiue text, and if not it was importated without formatting (edit > paste special > unformatted text) or washed through a pure text app like Windows notepad.
Since you mentioned it, I've see the MIF-wash suggestion. I'll give it a try.

Amount from 2 different columns. import format?

Hi all,
Im trying to import amounts from 2 different columns. If accounts are "123" or "234" or...etc
Then pull from column
else use column 9
can this be done in one import script? I want to know if I can assign import format amount to column 5 but only get the accounts asked for. else use column 9.
thanks

I made something like this, and assigned it to an amount column with all the amounts. Does it make sense?
Function This_Code (strField, strRecord)
Dim Account
Dim Ammount
'Field instead of strRecord
account = DW.Utilities.fParseString(strField, 12, 5, ",")
Amount = DW.Utilities.fParseString(strField, 12, 11, ",")
If Account = "123" or Account = "456" Then
Amount = This_Code
End If

FDM Fixed-Width Import Format & Multiple Accounts/Periods Issue

Hi FDM experts,
I have an issue that I wanted to reach out to you on regarding fixed-width import formats and how to cater for my current scenario for export to Hyperion Planning.
I am working with a flat file (.txt) I need to import to FDM with the current format;
A
B
C
D
E
F
G
Z
Year
Channel
Product
Jan-MTD-Account 1
Jan-MTD-Account 2
Jan-YTD-Account1
Jan-YTD-Account2
Dec-YTD-Account2
2013
Channel_1
Product_1
1000
2000
1000
2000
10000
These are all fixed in width so the field lengths will need to be defined in the import format. The requirement for loading to the system is only a speciifc Month YTD value for both Account1 and Account 2.
If my chosen Month is 2013 Jan, I will only require columns F and G to be loaded. These are the issues I have identified;
Can a fixed width import format cater for loading to multiple accounts in the same file? Or would I need a separate import format per account?
Can a fixed width import format cater for loading to a variable Actual Month period? Or do I need 12 import formats/locations per month?
Your help is much appreciated!
Many thanks
Aaron

Hi Aaron,
the solution you are looking for needs pivoting your source file.
Think that FDM, by default, only accepts files with one single column for amount. You have to pivot your file based on your logic and import the pivoted file.
For example:
Year     Channel     Product     ... Jan-YTD-Acc1     Jan-YTD-Acc2 ...
2013     CH1          PR1               1000                    2000
If your POV is Jan-2013, your data imported will look like:
Year     Channel     Produc     Account     Amount
2013     CH1          PR1          ACC1          1000
2013     CH1          PR1          ACC2          2000
All this process can be automated by playing with Import Scripts.

Import Format for Separte Debit and Credit Columns (comma delimited file)

I have a file that is comma delimited with a sparate debit column and a separate credit column:
Sample:
Ent,Acct,description,Dr,Cr
,1000,test,100,
,110010,another test,,100
My import format is this:
Comma delimited
Field Number Number of Fields Expression
Entity 1 5 SGB_ABC
Account 2 5
Amount 5 5 Script=DRCRSplit_Comma_Del.uss
I've tried writing the following script to pull the amount from the debit column into the credit column but it just skips the lines with no amount in field 5.
'Declare Variables
Dim Field4
Dim Field5
'Retrieve Data
Field4 = DW.Utilities.fParseString(strRecord, 4, 4, ",")
Field5 = DW.Utilities.fParseString(strRecord, 5, 5, ",")
'If Field4 has a value then fld 5 is to equal fld 4.
If IsNumeric(Field5) Then
Field5 = Field5
Else
Field5 = Field4
End If
'Return Result into FDM
SQFLD5 = Field5
End Function
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
Thanks!

I got it to work using this script:
Function DRCR_Comma_Del(strField, strRecord)
'Hyperion FDM DataPump Import Script:
'Created By: testuser
'Date Created: 7/22/2009 9:31:15 AM
'Purpose: If Amount is in the DR column move it to the CR amount column.
Dim DR
Dim CR
DR = DW.Utilities.fParseString(strRecord, 5, 4, ",")
CR = DW.Utilities.fParseString(strRecord, 5, 5, ",")
If IsNumeric(DR) Then
strField = DR
Else
strField = "-" & CR
End If
DRCR_Comma_Del = strField
End Function
