Automatic Payment Program-problems with check printing/viewing
Hello:
I am new to the SAP field. I have been trying to make the automatic payment program work for me. I have been having trouble trying to view the print preview of checks by going to system->own spool requests.
Steps followed ---Automatic Payment Program:
I checked the open invoices -
FBL1N
I ran F110 and finally print out with the start immediately option checked
I checked the open invoices FBL1N again and all the open invoices have cleared
However I am unable to view the checks that should have printed for this payment run. Can anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong here.
Thanks,
Mahesh
Mahesh,
Go to F110, Enter the run date and then click enter - After that click on edit and then proposal and proposal list and you can see all the details - which actually runs the program RFZALI20.
Hope that helps..
Thanks,
Nandita

Problems with check printing RTF template
To BI Publisher Gurus,
I am working on the check printing RTF template and facing a few issues with page breaks, filling the insufficient invoice lines with template and positioning of the table(s) itself inside the RTF template.
For page break, am using the following piece of code just before the end of all of my FE loops.
<xsl:if xdofo:ctx="inblock" test="position()-1<count($inner_group)"><xsl:attribute name="break-before">page</xsl:att:attribute></xsl:if>
the $inner_group is my group for G_INVOICES to loop through all the invoices of a check in G_CHECKS group.
The problem I'm facing is, everytime a check is printed its printing a blank page in between. Searched all the earlier forum posts but none of the solutions worked in my case.
Second issue, for filling the insufficient invoice lines (in my case, am printing 26 invoices per page per check), the call to the blank lines template is repeating twice and found no way to get rid of it.
Third issue, if the check is running into a second page, the call to the blank lines template does not work and the position of the bottom part of check is getting misaligned.
I am ready to send my template and the sample XML file to look at. Thanks for your time and effort.
-UdayHi Tim,
Hi Tim,
Could you please send me the sample rtf. We are also using APXPBFEG program for check printing..
Also I have problem in generating dots(....) in the check where if total invoices lines are 37 and we have only one line of invoice then I have to generate 36 dots (.) in the invoice porition of the check..
I appreciate your help..
Thanks

Automatic Payment Run - Problem with downloading DME file
Hi,
My client recently went live with the Automatic Payment run. But when trying to download ( or export) the DME file he is unable to do so. The message says like "There is no source data for this data record".
Please help.
Regards,
Raj/Hello,
You have to give the destination path where the file needs to be saved in transaction code OBPM4.
Hope you must have maintained proper variant for your Payment Medium Format.
Unless, you maintain these values, the file will not be generated at the destination.
Thanks,

Since upgrading to Mavericks - Problems with PowerPoint Print View
Since I upgraded to Mavericks recently, my Print View in PowerPoint 2011 has changed. Prior to Mavericks I was able to see the full slide in print view. Now when I preview a slide, the right hand side of the slide is cut off (about half inch). Is there any thing I can do to fix it? Any advice will be most appreciated.
The driver should be part of OS X, not something you download.
This link shows supported HP printers (6800 but no 6840).
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#HP
I suggest you delete the printer, turn it off, restart your system, and turn the printer on and add it back in.

Regs,
BhaskarHi,
This error comes when you dont have authority to run the job. If this is the case go to SU53. You can find the object for which you are not authorized below "Authorization check failed". Take a screen shot and talk to your Basis for giving you the authority.
For the second possibility Check SM37, select the job status scheduled and then click on execute. It will show all the jobs. Select the particular job and release.
Hope this helps

How to generate checks when executing Automatic Payment Program (F110)
Is it possible to generate checks automatically when I execute the automatic payment program? Will reward points to any suggestion. Thanks!
hi patrick
try this.....ur problem may solve.....
Create Automatic Payment Transactions (F110)
Purpose
Use this procedure to generate checks proposals or ACH proposals and then subsequently issue checks or set up ACH files to be transmitted to the bank.
Trigger
Perform this procedure when through either an ACH or a check, a creditor of the University needs to be paid.
Prerequisites
Open invoices with reached due dates have to be present in the SAP system.
Menu Path
Use the following menu path to begin this transaction:
· Select Accounting Financial Accounting Accounts Payable Periodic processing Payments to go to the Automatic Payment Transactions: Status screen.
Transaction Code
F110
Business Process Information
The automatic payment process will be centrally managed in the Accounts Payable Office. The automatic payment program will be executed each day for all open invoices (across vendors) in the system. There will be separate payment run execution corresponding to each payment method category:
Check payments: clears the open invoices and issues a check output
ACH payments: clears the open invoices and issues an ACH file output
Foreign currency payments: clears open invoices but no output is issued
State/Grant payments: clears open invoices but no output is issued
The process steps executed during the automatic payment program are:
Enter Payment Parameters
Edit/review Payment Proposal
Post Payments
Generate Payment Medium (print checks or create ACH payment file)
Generate Positive Payment File
The payment parameters are entered in order to limit the open invoices and credits selected for payment. It is important to note that the payment terms that are defined on the invoice will drive whether a invoice is due for payment during the current payment run. During the payment program execution, the invoices that are due for payment will be presented to the user on a payment proposal list.
The payment proposal is a list of expected payments grouped by vendor account. Invoices that are due for payment but cannot be paid due to some kind of accounting or system error are listed as exceptions. Examples of typical exceptions are missing banking information (for ACH payments) and blocked invoices. Some payment exceptions will be resolved at the Accounts Payable Office. However the Department must resolve some exceptions. When these types of exceptions appear on the payment proposals, the Accounts Payable Office will inform the Department of the blocked payment in order to get a resolution. Key personnel in the Accounts Payable Office will be the only resources to have access to the editing function of the payment proposal processing. Typically, there is no business reason the edit or change a payment proposal. Editing options for a payment proposal includes: changing the default disbursing bank account information or changing the payment method.
After the payment proposals have been reviewed and edited, the proposals are posted as payments. It is important to note that any open credit on the vendor's account is also taken in consideration when creating the vendor's payment. The payment method supplement defined on the invoice will drive the check sorting.
In addition to the printed check output, the payment program run produces an ACH file and a Positive Pay file. Both files are sent to the bank for further processing. The ACH file contains the vendor's payment and banking data. The Positive Pay file contains the check data (check processed, voided, etc) and is used for confirmation of payments.

How to create check in batch automatically after automatic payment program
Hello
SAP Experts i am getting a issue
how to create check in batch automatically after automatic payment program ( t code is f110)
Thanks & Regards
Narendra.GHi Narendra,
Please note the process below for cheque Printing:-
1. The pre requisite for Cheque printing is you have used program RFFOUS_c/or the Z version of this program in FBZP and that you have maintained the form name in the field Form name for Payment medium in FBZP.
2. You have a pre printed stationary on which you want to print and the Program & the form has been modified to print as per this.
3. In F110, you must have assigned the Variant name, which would specify the cheque lot no. and this should exactly match with the current cheque no. in the pre printed stationary.
4. Now, after all this setting, when you run Payment run in F110, then also only the Payment documents are posted but the cheque no.s are not updated in the Payment document no. nor the PAYR table is updated. It is only when you run the Print out tab, that a spool is created in SP01 for cheque printing as per the Payment documents.
5. Then in SP01, you can print the spool on your pre printed stationary.
This is the complete process of printing cheques from F110. Hope this helps..

Run date problem in F110 - automatic payment program
Hi.
I am trying to run the automatic payment program in F110. I am facing the problem with the run date in this transaction. System is not giving me any error if i give the run date as today's date or future date.
But in run date if i give previous date system is not executing the automatic payment program.
Eg: Inovice posted on 01.01.2012. It becomes due on 01.01.2012. I gave run date as today's date 04.01.2012 or future date the system is executing correctly picking all invoices. But if i give the run date as previous to the current date i.e., 02.01.2012 or 03.01.2012 then system is not executing this transaction.
This problem is coming for all company codes. So if there is any setting for restricting run date request you to help me in this regard where can i do such setting.
Regards,
PadmavathiHi.
My problem is solved.
Actually client is entering the documents with posting date for earlier months whereas he has entered the documents this month.
Therefore system is not picking the invoices in F110 - automatic payment program.
Actually the run date entered is getting copied to the parameters entered i.e., posting date and documents entered upto date.
Documents are entered in the system this month with posting dates of previous months. Therefore if i give the run date as this month date the run date is getting copied to doc entered upto date in the parameters tab as this month date. So only system is not picking invoices since invoices are entered in the system this month only.
Now we changed the date for doc entered upto with previous month date and system is picking the invoices.
Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi Gurus,
I want to reprint the cheques generated from automatic payment program in one go.From FBZ5 I can print only sigle sigle chques.But I wanna to reprint all the cheques in one go.

Automatic payment program- Payment list Fields
Dear Experts,
After running automatic payment program when I am trying to view the Payment list(Edit-Payment-Payment list), I donu2019t see the check number in the payment document. Basically we need to see the check number because when the user take the payment list print out it gives the vendor related details with the amount but the authorized signatory need to see the check number as well along with the amount before signing the check.
So is there any setting that I can do to flow the check number in the payment list?
Any inputs are appreciated.
Regards
PaulHi I have found the solution on this.
Solution system is sorting the correspondence bases on vendor name and this setting is done when you set the payment method company code wise.
Also we can sort the payment list vendorwise.
Problem resolved.
Thanks for the input

Hi Experts,
Can some help me on a real-time issue on FI-AP Accounts Payables - Vendors - Automatic Payment Program - Cheque Re-Assignment Problem - which I am facing.
I have assigned a wrong cheque No. to a payment document through automatic payment program. Actually, this Cheque No. should be assigned to some other payment document.
How, can I release / set free this cheque no. and re-assign it to some other payment document.
I will awards points with an open heart.
Thanks & Regards
Rajeev SharmaHI,
As u r use the automatic payment program - and when u use the automatic payment program the check number are assign in automaticly.
So this are assign when u do the check printing. So once u think the wrong number are printed , u have to void the check number and write manual check and assign to the line item.
FCHE - Voided Checks
FCH5 - Manual Checks : Write manual check
hope this is clear Assign some points.
