ACH payments using RFFOEDI1
I am using RFFOEDI1 for ach payments with idoc type PEXR2002. Do i need to choose between CCD,CTX or PPD? Does it make any difference in the idoc generated?
RFFOEDI1 only creates IDOC with message messae types PAYEXT or REMADV (depending on the vendor master set up). For this program (payment method), there is no configuration distinguishing CCD or CTX. All the iDOCs created are identical. Once these iDOCs are created, the iDOC data is converted into CTX (with details) or CCD (without details) formats. This piece is completed by the EDI team and is not in SAP. For example, there can be a script for EDI conversion from iDOC to X12 based on the payment method or payment method and vendor combination to determine whether to write CCD or CTX data into X12.
Data in X12 format (a.k.a EDI 820 files) is transferred to the bank (one file per IDOC). Bank then converts this data into NACHA format before processing it. Please note that some banks do charge money for converting X12 records to NACHA format, therefore, it may be wise to use Payment Medium Workbench Format ACH. This provides a flat file that cant be FTP'd to the Bank's server in CTX, CCD, or PPD formats.
I hope this helps

ACH Payment Method for US Garnishments
Hi Experts,
We want to make Garnishment Support payments through ACH File instead of live AP Checks. I have a few queries:
1) We do not want to disturb the existing functionality of disbursing empl's salary through ACH file using pgm RFFOUS_T
But in case of garnishments Support payment, we want to generate the ACH file for the State Disbursement Unit using Payment Medium Workbench (PMW). Is this feasable.
1) For example, let's say there is vendor (say 108001 )and there are three employees whose Support Garnishments are going to this vendor.
Now If u201CIssue Separate Check to Vendor u201Cfield is checked in IT0194, does this ensure separate line items/entries for each employee in the ACH file.
2) Can we assign only one Vendor (say 108001 ) everytime in IT0194 for any employee with Garnishment Category u2013 Support.
3) Can a Vendor ask for the same ACH file in both the formats - CTX and CCD ? If yes, does that mean there will be two payment runs in FI, one for each format.
Can you please help.
Edited by: Somdeb Banerjee on Oct 7, 2010 12:11 PMHello Somdeb,
See my comments in bold.
1) For example, let's say there is vendor (say 108001 )and there are three employees whose Support Garnishments are going to this vendor.
Now If u201CIssue Separate Check to Vendor u201Cfield is checked in IT0194, does this ensure separate line items/entries for each employee in the ACH file. Yes it should create separate line item. At least it does for us. You can test it in your test system. We have custom remittance program for ACH. You can talk to your FI group and give them TP postings document number to identify if it creates separate line item.
2) Can we assign only one Vendor (say 108001 ) everytime in IT0194 for any employee with Garnishment Category u2013 Support. Depends on the client and vendor requirement. IF all of your garnishments goes to same vendor then yes you can do that.
3) Can a Vendor ask for the same ACH file in both the formats - CTX and CCD ? If yes, does that mean there will be two payment runs in FI, one for each format. Not sure about format. But you can search SMP about this.
See, each one of your requirements are mostly functional. So treat them on a trial and error basis in test system.
Let me know if you have further queries.

ACH payment method US- Value date in DME
Hi,
We are using ACH payment method. After the payment program is executed, through Environment>payment mediumDME administration, we download the txt file which is sent to the bank. In this file format, apart from the date in the header record, we find another date with record type 5 positioned at 70-75.
From which table and field this value is being populated? Also, if we need to change this date to the next day ( i.e. payment program is executed today, but this date should be the next day).
I did configuration in FBZP - value date ( put the days as 1); and also in SPRO: Define value date rules for bank transactions and assigned the payment method to bank transaction.
Despite all this; I do not see that the date in the DME file is not getting changed (position 70-75). I see that value date in REGUH table is changed to the next day.
So my questions are:
From which table this date is getting populated?
How to change this date to the next date?
Do we need to use any user exit? If so which one ?
Your help in this regard is highly appreciated.
thanks

That field in company batch header with record type is called "effective entry date". Please look at the attached thread.

Addenda information for ACH payments
Hi All,
We are using PMW with an ACH CCD format to send the ACH files to our Bank. But certain vendors require us to send ADDENDA record as given below for e.g. in the ACH payments
705ISA00NV 00NV ZZNV ZZNV 09100615300010000001
Can we enter this information in the item text of the vendor invoice, if yes then what will be the config to polulate this information
in the addenda record of the ACH files. Due you think activation of segment/item text check box in the NOTE TO PAYEE config of payment method in fbzp can do the trick?
Thanks

ACH Payment Process in F110 Program
Hi SAP folks,
I am having a small issue with ACH payment process through F110 Program.
I am using Payment program RFFOUS_T for a payment method " A" for ACH and all variant and other configuration is perfect.
When I execute F110 program, it create DME file for me and let's say I clear one vendor with one invoice only then in DME file I can see record 1, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 and file is 100% good to transfer to bank.
Now If I have two Invoice for same vendor and I execute the same process, record 7 with is Addendum record disappears and I will have only 1, 5, 6, 8 and 9.
Our requirement is that let's say we need to pay multiple almost 100 invoices per vendor and we would like to have records 1, 5, 6 and 100 7 records which contains all vendor invoice information and 8 & 9.
I am using CCD format but i guess with program RFFOUS_T it doesn't matter too much.
Has anybody face this issue before ? I have spent hell of the time on this issue but haven't resolved this. I would greatly appreciate your response on this.
Thanks
Perry

I think this problem is because of all the payment is grouped as one payment. You need to make a separate payment for each vendor line items so that you get record 7 as many times as the number of vendor open items.
In FBZP, payment method in company code, there is an option where you can select SINGLE PAYMENT FOR MARKED ITEMS and also you need to give the payment method in each of the line items.
Hopethis helps. We had the same requirement and we getting the expected result
Thanks

PerryHello Rana,
Thanks for your help. I have already tried that option in vendor master and it works fine but issue is here.
Let's say If I have two vendor invoices for same vendor and each for $100 so as per your method SAP creates two line of record 6 and 7 in ACH out put file like below.
Record 6.. for vendor name and payment $100.00
Record 7.. for Vendor Invoice reference 1234 for payment
Record 6.. For Vendor name and payment $100.00
Record 7..For Vendor Invoice reference 2345 for Payment
So this way it cost more money to client because each payment is considered as a separate transmission.
<b><u>We are looking for following solution.</u></b>
Record 6.. with Vendor name and total amount of $200.00
Record 7 ..For first invoice with invoice number for $100.
Record 7..For second Invoice with Invoice number for$100.
I hope I was able to explain my challenge and if you can provide any help, I would really appreciate that.
I am sure somebody must have faced this problem before and I am curious to know how they resolved.
Thanks

Hi Experts,
One of our clients wanted to make the payments to vendors through ACH mode. Currently making payments through checks and ACH currently using for payroll. I want to configure new payment method in FBZP for ACH what other areas need to do the configuration like bank file etc.,.
Awaiting your suggestions.
Thanks & Regards
AdityaHi
Complete all the basic FBZP settings.
Also keep a note of the below points with respect to "Payment method in country" settings:
If you are using ACH classic format, assign RFFOUS_T to the pament method.
In case you are using PMW (payment method workbench) format, then assign ACH as the "format".
In the "format supplement", Use CCD for Cash Concentration and Disbursements, PPD for prearranged payment and deposit entry and CTX for corporate trade exchange.

Change addenda record in ACH Payment File
My requirement is to change the addenda records in th line item records starting with 7, which are generated after running ACH payment , i need to place some data instead of the original one starting at the position of 4th till 80 chars in length.
705ISA00NV 00NV ZZNV ZZNV 09100615300010000001
to be replced with few fields as per customer requirement at the underlined positions
705_ISA00NV 00NV ZZNV ZZNV 09100615300010000001_
I figured out that the Function modules being used are FI_PAYMEDIUM_ACH_30 and FI_PAYMEDIUM_ACH_40 dealing with these line items.
My question is to replace some chars in the line item i have coded by copying the standard to ZFM so is it sufficeint to replace the respective standard with z function modules or do i need ot create a new copy standard ACH format to ZACH and replace all the five event funciton modules to z function modules. If somebody worked in this area, please extend your help regarding the same.

Hi,
Our issue: ACH payment is release by the bank in a lump sum amount for a batch of AP payments via IDOC. ACH lump sum amount that feed into FEBA cannot match each other (ACH-AP Payment listing) for clearing. ACH items must be manually post to ACH Account and then manually clear the open items. In more technical words, we send multiple ACH Payment IDOCS to bank (BOA), but when bank return us via PDR, it is in one lump sum, causing FEBA cannot match each other and cannot clear automatically.
I read somewhere say we can request BOA to send back the DME reference number in the PDR file and then assign interpretation algorithm#019 to the BAI code that represents the lump sum ACH item on the PDR file. Anyone works on this before?Hello-
Use SAP Standard Program RFFOUS_T for ACH Payment. That would easiest way.
1. Configure new payment method ACH with program RFFOUS_T
2. Modify the program if you want a different kind of output (for example, email payment advices, print payment advices, if you want to do both modify function module in BTE 002040, etc)
3. Maintain vendor EFT information. If you leave reference details field blank, system will use CCD format and if you want CTX, enter CTX in the reference field.
This is all you need.
Hope this helps.

Hi All,
In my company, we are already processing Domestic Vendor Payments (USA) using ACH payment. We send EDI 820 to bank.
Our company requirement is to process Foreign Vendor Payments also using ACH Payment.
Could any one let me know what are the necessary steps i need to focus on to achieve our company's requirement.
1) Configuration part.
2) Vendor Master
3) Exchange Rates
4) What are the changes in EDI 820, which will designate that the payment is made to Foreign Bank.
Thanks
Rajanikanth.I cannot answer all questions but here are some pieces that you need to look at.
In FBZP ("Pmnt methods in company code" option), you need to check the checkboxes 'Foreign business partner allowed' and 'Cust/vendor bank abroad allowed?' for the payment method you want to use. You need to do this in all company codes in which you want to use the payment method for foreign vendor payments.
Assign the payment method in vendor master. You will also have (foreign) bank data in vendor master.
Maintain daily exchange rates in TCURR table (OB08 transaction). -

Hi Gurus
I've the following scenario and I hope someone throws some light on how to handle this scenario.
There is a vendor payment which is processed as an ACH payment. Next day, we get the EBS and it clears the banking documents. Now, couple of days later, bank decides not to pay to vendor (address mis-match etc). So, currently they are sending the reversal transaction.
My question is - how do we handle this to re-open the vendor line item so that F110 pays the vendor again? The problem with regular document resetting and reversal is that it is opening ALL the line items. We want to open only this invoice, not all.
I've suggested to create a new invoice with old details including baseline date, but business is not ready to do that.
Please help me.
Thanks.If you have created for a payment that has one invoice or more than one invoice, you would have to reset the clearing document using FBRA. You cannot reverse payment for only one invoice if that payment contains more than one invoice. So, in your case i guess would be to post a journal entry by debiting cash and crediting vendor for that invoice.
