Payment Media Run

Hi Experts,
I'd like to know what are the pre requisites to successfully complete a Payment Media Run.
Upon executing / releasing a Payment Proposal from a "Payment Run" in the Payables WC, the relevant item is set to "Ready For Transfer" in the Payment Monitor.
I understand we could manually create a Remittance Advise and a Payment File [to be sent to the bank] and then manually "Set to in Transfer" from the Payment Monitor itself
OR
we could use the "Payment Media Run" in Payment Management WC to do all of the above in one go.
What I would like to understand is what are the pre requisites [any config activities]
1) For the creation of the Remittance Advise
2) For the creation of the Bank Payment File
Thanks
Puru

Hello Puru,
Please see the thread : Re: Not Working Payment Media Runs
First of all, Lets see what Payment run and payment Media run does and difference between them.
Payment run : This will propose the payments for the open items based on the due date , Total Balance of the business partner.
Payment media run will determine the payment for which system has to generate the files.
Payment media run will check for the below details in order to generate the file.
1) Payment should be in status : "Ready for transfer"
2) Payment file format should match with the file format entered as parameter (Which is mandatory field for the payment run).
So Payment Media run will not create any payments but it will only process the payments and generate the file.
To answer your question
1) For the creation of the Remittance Advise
A : In the master data of the business partner,Under the Financial data, Remittance Advice required checkbox should be ticked. Please see the screenshot for the same below.
2) For the creation of the Bank Payment File
A : for the Bank transfers, Payment method , Check business configuration activity : Outgoing Bank Transfers
which will determine the Payment Medium format.
You will also need to set up the payment Medium format in the bank master data. You will find this under the Payment formats tab of the Bank.
Please check this and let me know if you need any further details. Close this thread if this resolves your issue.

Harshal

Payment media file not saved on the local PC in FBPM

Dear all,
In transaction FBPM, if I choose the option ouput to the file system and point out the path to the folder where the file to be generated on my local PC, by the running of the transaction I am getting the following error:
BFIBL02182 - The file XXXXXXXXX cannot be opened.
If I want to download the payment media file I have to download it manualy.
I don't have some access limitation on my computer.
For this error I found the following explanation in teh forums: The error message BFIBL02182 normally is showing because the directory that was used when starting the payment media program (for example, in background processing), cannot be read online. You should therefore choose a directory that can be written to and read by different machines.
Acctually I don't understand this.
I would like the system to download the file automatically by the running of the transaction.
Please could help, what I have to do, ? How to check if the chosen by me dirictory is possible to be read online?
Thanks in advance for the help?

Hi,
Please validate the Payment medium: Selection Variant in T-Code: OBPM4 and then search the variant in T-Code FBPM, for the relevant Payment Medium Format, type the File Name something like this: C:\Documents and Settings\My Documents\Payment
Save
After the payment run is completed. You need to go to Menu in F110 screen and select Environment-> Payment Media->DME Administration, select the line and click Export button and select Download.
This is the only way you can download when the presentaion server is used.
Hope this helps....
Thanks,

F110 - Runtime error when creating payment media

Hi experts,
I use t.code F110, payment proposal is OK, payment run is OK, then I click on print job but there is no payment medium created. If I look at the print job log it says ABAP/4 raise exception.
In the testing environment everything is fine (payment media is created) but not in the production (I get the error)
Any idea?
Many thanks
Ben

Hi
Check the settings under
SPRO - Financial Accounting (New) - Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable - Business Transactions - Outgoing Payments - Automatic Outgoing Payments - Payment Media - Make Settings for Classic Payment Medium Programs
- Assign Payment Forms for Payment Method in Company Code
- Assign Payment Medium Program for Payment Method in Country
On completion of F110 run, you would get a print out option on top. Execute that and if required check in SP02 for any spool requests
Thank You,

Payment advice sent by e-mail, payment media file to be created before

dear all
We have implemented e-mail as a way of sending out the payment advices automatically to suppliers.
Currently we execute the payment run, generate the payment media (which at the same time creates the payment advices and sends them out by e-mail) and then we import the file into our bank system, where payments have to be approved by a finance manager.
We occasionally have the problem that the payments are not approved on the banking system on time - however the payment advices have already be sent by e-mail because the printout program does it at the same time as the payment file is created. Previously, because the payment notes were sent by post, we only sent them out after confirming that the payments had been actually executed in the banking system.
What the finance department is asking for is whether the payment advices can be sent by e-mail only after the payments have been approved at the bank (and for this to happen the payment file has to be generated in a previous step) - Is there any way of achieving this?
thank you

Hi Rafael,
For this you will have to do the following.
Frist check with the ABAPer that whether there is any std. Program or function module in the system that can sends mail.
1) With the help of ABAPer create a SAP Script form as per the requirements of Client as Payment Advice.
2) Do the Configuration required for the Correspondence.
3) You will have to develope a Z program or functionmodule to shoot mail as soon as the APP is completed. This you will have to do with the help of ABAper.
4) Last but not the least you wil haveto maintain the email addresses of the vendors in their master record.

Payment Media issue

Dears,
i recieved this error while running program SAPFpaym from se38 , any advices plz ?
No Payment Media Created in Format BNK_HSBC
Message no. BFIBL02159
Diagnosis
No payment media were created for format BNK_HSBC for payment group 0

Hi,
Go to the background before excuting the programme SAPFPAYM and create a variant.
Assign the variant which you have created to the payment method in transaction code: OBPM4
Before the second step, after creating variant in the first step, please assign the created format in FBZP settings in payment method.
This will resolve the issue.
Please revert back if having any more issues.

Control printout and generate payment media

we have two F110 run id, one is for payment method: T, if I click payment run, there are two checkbox, one is "start immediately", the other is at the bottom " Generate payment media".
the other F110 run for payment method check, if I click payment run, only one chekbox "start immediately" is availble, but "generate payment media" checkbox is missing, anyone knows how to bring "generate payment media" back?
the second issue is "printout" button, currently if we click printout, DME is generated, I want : when we click "printout", only payment advice will be generated, is it possible? any T-code to control this, thanks

Check the difference between 2 payment run cases.
In one of the cases in the output control for e.g. RFFOEDI1 you must have mentioned a variant name.
Hence the generate payment medium box is coming.
In other cases none is mentioned and no variant is maintained hence no box is coming.
Check and reply.

Configure Payment Media

Hi,
Could anybody please guide me about:
How can we Configure Payment Media? While running FPY1, in the job log it says u201Cno payment media were scheduledu201D. Please guide me.
Thanks and Regards

Hi Vashishth,
You create payment media if:
·        You want to transfer the data required for electronic payment transactions with banks in the form of a data medium
·        You want to issue checks
In Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable, you create payment media in the payment program
See SAP note 533686 for the settings in the note to payee.
    1.      In the payment run transaction, choose Environment -> Payment Media.
    2.      In the corresponding fields, define a variant for each of the payment media to be created or for   the payment list. Use the input help.
    3.      Save your entries.
To create your own variant for creating payment media, proceed as follows:
       1.      In the field Payment Medium Variant, enter the name of the variant that you wish to create.
       2.      Place the cursor on the variant name and choose Variant -> Maintain Variant.
       3.      Maintain the settings for screen assignment and choose Continue.
       4.      On the subsequent screen, define the required payment medium format.
       5.      In the Print Control area, set the indicator Data Medium Exchange to maintain the print parameters for the accompanying sheet, and the indicator Error Log to maintain the print parameters for the error log.
       6.      In the Output Control area, you can define the following settings:
                ¡        File Name: Name of the DME file if you output this in a file system of the application server. However, this output only takes place if you have set the indicator Output in File System.
               ii        Form Accompanying Sheet DME: Here you can define a different SAPscript form for the payment media format to the one defined in the system settings if you want to create an accompanying sheet for a DME file (see the Implementation Guide for Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable, Business Transactions ® Payments ® Incoming/Outgoing Payment Creation ® Define Specifications for Paying Company Code (Payment Media Formats in Company Code)).
              iii        You can also define the use of the ISO code for currencies.
              iv        If you set the indicator Texts in Recipient Language, the information forwarded to the bank for the customer account statement is output in the language defined in the business partner master record.
       7.      Choose the button Attribute and enter the required meaning.
       8.      Save your entries.
In event 0699, you can start your own program/workflows or output additional logs once you have created the payment media. This event is processed once all payment media jobs started have been completed.
Using report RFKKPAYMJOBC you can get a current overview of the status of the payment media jobs and display job logs.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Manish

Payment Wizard Run does not create Payment/Check

Does anyone know possible reason/s, why payment wizard run will not create payments and checks?
The wizard goes up to Execute Step, after execution, it shows:
0 Payments Created
0 Checks Created
I have compared settings (Banking, BP, Payment methods) with Demo Company (Where wizard runs to create Payments and Checks)
The client is on SAP B1 2007A
Thanks in advance for help

I've found several reasons for the Wizard not creating checks. I don't know if any of these are relevant to you, but take a look.
1. The vendors do not have default pay-to addresses. They may have pay-to addresses, but if there is not one that is designated as the default for each vendor, the wizard will not select any checks for them.
2. The vendors have a default house bank that is different than the bank you are using for the checks. It is OK if the house bank for a vendor is blank, but it cannot be different from the bank you are using.
3. If the vendor reference number on any AP invoice is more than 34 characters long, the wizard will not select any invoices from that vendor for payment (yes, the reference number field is 100 characters, but SAP support confirmed this limitation). Since you are not getting selections for any vendors, this is probably not the issue in your case - but keep it in mind.
I hope this is helpful.

Dear all
herre client is introdusing business area for running business
when i check in oby6 business area financial statments as required
if am going to pass a entry in f-02 the after assigning cost center the error is cost center not assigned to business area.
if i am going for caost center to assign business area in tc-ks02 here business area is required entry if i enterd business area if i saved that one the error is The field change business area isnot possible (transaction data already exists)
Field change Business Area is not possible (transaction data already exists)
Message no. KS134
Diagnosis
To ensure the consistency of existing data, you can only change object Business Area if no transaction data exists in the change period; that is, neither plan data nor actual data has been posted.
As transaction data already exists, it is not possible to change objects in this time period.
Procedure
If you still want to change the object, select a suitable change interval by choosing "Edit -> Analysis period...".
if i follow above menu bar edit-analysis period it is giving same error
appricated

Dealing with negative amounts in payment proposal runs in f110

Hi Techies,
In the payment proposal run through f110 transaction is it possible to raise an exception and show the negative amounts seperately?

Dear Ashok,
The scenario is that during the payment proposal run,
if there are two amounts with different due dates, say
10.07.2008     8900 euros to pay
20.07.2008     -800 euros ( the total of the documents at this due date is minus than zero)
Now the program gives one record which says 8100 euros to pay.
But our requirement is that, insted of displaying a single record that adds up the amounts, the negative amount is to be shown seperately like this:
Due date      10.07.2008     8900        euros to pay
Due date     20.07.2008      -800     Exceptions
As this is a standard SAP functiionality, i would like to know any possible ways to achieve this requirement.
Regards,
Madhuri

Unsuccessful payment wizard run

Hello All,
Please help.
I have just done a payment wizard run.
In the recommendation report stage, 84 cheques/lines had been ticked to pay, but it has only successfully executed 4 cheques.
How can I find out why?
Thank you very much
Regards,
Yang

Hello there,
I have eventually found out what have happened, but the understanding doesn't solve the practial problems unfortunately. Also, the funcationality of payment wizard is rather confusing ...
The most confusing thing is that the non-included transactions in step 6 is definately NOT the same as the report in step 9. In step 6, the list of non-included transactions includes the transactions that are out of the range as defined in criteria (the first 3-4 steps). The list will be updated after execution, because more unsucessful could be added in for the failure of posting.
To simply put, 100 transcations are currently in the system in total relevant to outgoing payment including AP invoices, credit notes, etc. If I set the criteria, for example, due day is today, for all suppliers*.
Say, 51 transactions match the criteria, so the 51 transactions will be recommended to pay in the step 6, the rest of 49 will be found behind the non-included transactions button. The error descriptions for the 49 transactions would be "Document due date is later than the date calculated by 'AP Due Date' minus 'Tolerance Days' " It looks good now, and I could manually tick off some transactions (say 15)from the recommended report for whatever business reasons.
Execute the payment run, say 10 cheques have been added (one cheque for one supplier, 3 transactions on each cheque), which cover 30 transactions. So... 51-15-30=6 postings failed. Now the non-included transactions report (in step 9) will, however, show a list of 49+6=55 transactions!
The serious troubles come, that
1) we cannot use the non-included transactions report to re-do the failed postings, because the 49 have been mixed together, which are what we don't want to pay.
2) The non-included transactions report in step 6 doesn't exist anymore; it has been updated, so we cannot get any assistance from step 6. -- I tried to export the recommended report into Excel to know what had been ticked to pay, but the "tick box" column is not exportable, so we cannot use this list either, as the 15 transactions manually ticked off were mixed up.
3) The only way forwards seems to create another payment run, and spend awful lots of time to work out what the 6 failures were ... and it could fail again if not all of the errors have been corrected. In fact, we never know how many failures were there, as it cannot be tracked back.
In reality, when the numbers of transactions go up to tens at every stage, you can imagine what is it a nightmare.
'* One more confusing thing is that, if the criteria was not based on all suppliers (a/several range/BP groups), The non-included transactions wouldn't even take this into account, then the problem becomes more complicated.
All in all, I have written too much ...:-P Does anyone have shortcut or solutions for its practical use of the wizard? Is there anything I understood incorrectly so far?
Thank you very much
Regards,
Yang

Payment medium workbench vs. payment media program.

Dear Friends,
Anybody have idea about the Pro's and Con's for "Payment medium workbench" vs. "payment media program".
Regards
Rupesh

Hi,
There is no disadvantage by using PMW.
I repeat it is a tool for which we can create the file format as per our requirements.
You will create the file format in t.code DMEE.
You can create different format files for each payment method with a variant defined.
The user can decide on the layout of the note to payee, and select differing notes to payee according to origin (vendors, customers, personnel, travel expenses, Treasury, online payments.
There is no technical knowledge required to use this tool.
Please refer below documentation for more.
