BAI2 file format- 6 record / Check DDA Account
SAP Guru's
Can any one confirm for me what the position and characters should be for check DDA Account. In my last assignment, I used the following:
Position 27-39 Field Size 13 Right justify and zero filler
The BAI/ BAI2 file format white paper for SAP I believe is out of date because it says that the check DDA account should be 10 characters.
Can any one confirm for me which is right and if I am right which I assume I am since my last lockbox implementation was successful, why is the white paper say 10? Is there a latest version?
Thanks!

Hello SAP Guru's-
In testing the lockbox functionality, I have a client who has a customer that remits with over several hundred line items in one check. In the 4 record, the bank sent me a file with the following format
Record Type 4
Batch Number 001
Item Number 001
Overflow Type 4
Overflow Seq Nbr 01 to 99 then start 01 again
Last Ovfl Flag 9 (on last record)
On the Overflow Sequence number, when they got to 99 they started over to 01 on the next line item. Is this correct? I understood that they should change the overflow type from a 4 to a 6 and restart with a new 4 record?
Please help!
I will AWARD POINTS.
Many thanks!Hi,
Please go through the following regarding Record 4 for BAI2 file format:
<i>Record 4: Table FLB24
4002003401716000002 00000100000000000000
4002004402918000018 00001000000000000000gh
The item in blue is the Record Type indicator. Record Type 4 can appear numerous times in the Lockbox file. Record 4 is the Item Record and it is used to hold one invoice each. (Field name OR001)
The item in green is the Batch Number for the Lockbox. This item will have 3 characters. (Field name OR002)
The item in red is the Batch Item Number for the Lockbox. This item will have 3 characters/spaces. (Field name OR003)
The item in purple Type of Overflow record (1 space). In this case, it is a 4 record because it contains only its own item, not an item overflowed from a preceding 6 Record. (Field name OR004)
Bright green is the Sequence Number for the record (2 spaces). (Field name OR005)
The item in yellow is the End Indicator for the Lockbox. A 9 indicates the last record of a Lockbox (1 space). (Field name OR006)
The next items in black are the Invoice Numbers (16 characters/spaces each). Only 1 invoice is placed into each 4 Record. (Field name IVCNR) The best field format convention would be to use left-justification, blank-padding right for the invoice number(as shown in the Record 4 above).
The items in dark yellow are the Payment Amounts per invoice (10 characters/spaces). (FiT)
The items in gray are the Deduction Amounts per invoice (10 characters/spaces). MT)
Dark Blue is the External Reason Code for the payment. (Field name RESTG)
Up to the next 30 character spaces are available for short text. They may be left blank if desired. (Field name OR011)</i>
In BAI2 overflow type is not changed, 4 is correct. Only in BAI format it is changed.
Thanks

Hi Guys
We are using BAI file format as the format which has been send by our banker and the same is working fine. T- Code used to upload is FF_5 and the algarithm used is 011
Now our banker has changed the file format to BAI2
In the given file we have cheque number in 16, 475 line and we are using 011 as algarithm. When we upload via FF_5 the first entry is passed for debiting the Cash Disbursement account by crediting Cash Main Bank account, this is in the file with ZBA transfer credit
When it comes to the second entry of debit check clearing a/c to cash disbursement account credit, we are getting an error as the difference is two large. When we checked the same, the system is picking document number as * and hence the entire list is displayed without selecting the correct payment document number with cheque number which is in the reference of the payment document number
To take it further, we have changed the algarithm to 015, where the cheque number is given in the assignment field in the payment document number. In this case the system picks the leading five zero which is available in the uploaded file along with the /
We tried to remove all the leading zero in the upload file from the cheque number which is available in the line 16, 475 as well as the / in that line and the system gave the correct output
In the above, we are not sure why 011 algarithm is not working ( we tried by giving only the BELNR, only XBLNR, BELNR and XBLNR etc) the output was always " the differnce is too large for clearing ) since the algorithm has not searched for the proper document AND in case 015 algarithm, why the system is taking leading zero as well and why its picking the \ in the assigment while its clearing. Because of this / the system is not picking the cheque number
Can any one show some light on this
Thanks - BalaHi Guys
We are using algorathim 011 for our EBS. The file format from our banker is BAI2
When we are uploading the statement, the accounting entries got cleared. But the issue we face is encashment date is not updated in FCH1 (Check Information)
With this if we check, at any point of time in the check register the entire check are still open. We have verified the following why the check encashment date is not updated
- In line 88, checked MICR ACCT and MICR ABA is same as our bank key in our house bank configuration
- Checked the Global setting on EBS, for external transaction 475 the interpretation logic is 011 and processing type is "clearing with check"
- Verified the check lenght
After all this if we upload any EBS statement using FF_5, the accounting entries are posted and not the encashment date is updated in FCH1
Thanks in advance

EBS BAI2 file - Transaction 475, check clearing - extra character appending
Hello experts,
We are using Algorithm 13 for processing checks which are processed using the transactin 475 on the incoming bank file.
In the BAI2 file format, the check numer is contained in record 16 in the following format-
16,475,58740,0,9180914733,67689/
88,CHECK NO=0000000067689
The problem that we are having is - if the EBS program is run as a automated batch job then SAP is appending the '/' (that appears at the end of the line in record 16) in the check number that it uses to match the documents for clearing. Therefore in the above example, our SAP system is trying to find the check number '67689/' in the check lots to match against the payment document. However our check numbers are just 67689 therefore SAP is not able to find a match and posts the document in 'On Account' state.
But if the same file is run manually in the Workstation upload mode, then there is no extra '/' appearing in the check number and SAP correctly clears the Cash Clearing account. I know there is nothing wrong in the file sent to us by the bank. Plus running it manually does not cause this issue.
Has anyone else faced this problem before and if you can suggest on what possibly could be going wrong then it would be a great help for me.
Thanks!I understand wanting to find the issue - not just apply a band aid. And I understand the frustration of not being able to recreate an issue in a test system. But at least a search string is only configuration and not ABAP code in a user exit.... And if it works, it will relieve your users from clearing the checks manually.
If you do go with a search string, you should be able to isolate the last 5 digits by only mapping those. For example, you'd set the search string to:
CHECK NO=00000000#####
Then in the mapping, blank out all values except for the 5 # symbols - so the mapping would be 17 blank spaces followed by 5 #'s. I've been able to successfully extract reference numbers for ACH deposit clearings this way - I don't see why it wouldn't also work in your situation with check numbers.

Hi,
We are in planning to implement Lockbox functionality for auto cash application in our European company codes. I have few questions:
1)What file formats can SAP read other than BAI2 format.We are using standard SAP program RFEBLB00 (Transaction FLB2) to read a BAI2 file for our US company codes and they work fine.
2)Ours is Bank of America and they are unable to provide BAI2 format? Has anybody faced this kind of situation where Bank can't provide BAI2 format for Europe transactions? What are the alternatives?
Thanks in Advance.
RakeshCurrently, only BAI and BAI2 file formats are supported by SAP. It includes
the following:
BAI Record Format: Specify the length of the document numbers (10 in
the standard SAP System) and the number of document numbers in record types 6
and 4 of the BAI file. Your bank must agree on this format information.
BAI2 Record Format: It is not necessary to specify the length of the
document or the number of document numbers in record types 6 and 4. This is
because BAI2 file is designed that each document number is on a different record
type 4 with its corresponding payment and deduction amounts. Your bank must
agree on this format information.
NOTE: while the BAI and BAI2 formats are supposedly standard, experience
has shown that they can vary by bank and many SAP clients have contracted for a
customized format. The format received will need to be mapped to reconcile with
the SAP delivered data dictionary layout (Tables FLB01, FLB05, FLB06, etc.) to
ensure proper processing. If the format does not reconcile and the user does
not want to have the bank change the format, SAP recommends that a user-written
ABAP be used to reformat the file or alternatively the SAP data dictionary can
be modified (this is a repair that will need to be re-applied in future
releases).
Batch Input Sessions [Posting Functions]: Specify which postings the
system creates (general ledger cash postings and/or customer cash
application). It is recommended that both choices are selected if you are using
the general ledger and accounts receivable modules. For the general ledger you
can decide whether to post one aggregate amount to the incoming cash account or
one line per check. This depends on your reconciliation with the bank. In
addition, you can choose to create and name a batch input session to insert any
missing or new customer bank details into the customer master records (this can
only be done if the system identifies a valid document number).
Important Note: The lockbox program first attempts to identify the customer
with unique bank information in the customer master record matching to MICR
information on the check, so maintenance of unique customer MICR information is
important to ensure success. If there is more that one customer with the same
MICR bank and account, then the program cannot apply the check to an
account. This situation usually means that either the same customer has been
set up twice, or maybe what should have been only Ship-to or Sold-to customers
for the same Payer have actually been set up as separate Payers. Alternatively,
it may be necessary to set up a relationship where one customer is identified as
the main Payer and has MICR info, and the related customers do not have MICR
info but instead have the main Payers customer number in the Alternate Payer
field of the customer master record.
The payment information provided in the bank data file will create a payment
advice per check. This payment advice will be used by the lockbox procedure to
clear subledger open items. For more information on payment advices, please
read accounts receivable/accounts payable Payment Advice Notes in the IMG or

Presently calling a webservice to search for customer which generates a XML file. Requirement is to check the XML file format in case of success move to next step and in case of error exit from the application.
The file generated can have multiple formats as per input supplied.
Please advise how the file format can be checked.
Thanks
anyahi anya,
Try to use FM IDOC_XML_FROM_FILE.
or check the below code
data: temp_str type string.
concatenate '>' cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf '<'><' in XML_STRING with temp_str.
xml_string is the straing variable to hold the xml .
now use xml_string to show it in texteditor.

Check image details like resolution, dimensions, color mode, file format, file size and file name
I have 1000 images in a folder, i want to check their details like resolution, dimensions, color mode, file format, file size and file name into excel with nice user interface.
Pls help me, m just learning ABCD in VB.The code in the file at the link below might give you a starting point. Firstly it gives you the opportunity to list all of the properties of a file type and then you can select the properties that you want and the second utility gives you the
opportunity to list the selected properties for all files in a selected folder.
Download and extract the file and open the file in Excel.
Click the first button List Meta Data for One File (Run first)
Navigate to and Select any ONE individual photo file. (Photo files because that is what you indicated you are working with.)
You will be presented with a list of the available properties for the file. Where the Item value is blank, that property is not recorded for the particular file. Different file types have different properties and it is also dependent on how the file
was created but generally if all of the files come from the same source then the same properties are recorded for all files from that source.
Now insert a Y in column D for all of the required properties. (Don't select any with the Item value blank)
Click the second button List Selected Meta Data for all Files in a Folder (Run after selecting the required properties).
Next select a folder where the files reside. (You might need to back up to the folder if dialog is blank because it will not show individual files because the code only allows Folders.)
You will be presented with a report listing all of the selected properties for all of the files in the selected folder.
The user interface is not that great but you can improve on that if you want to with a Userform as you get to know VBA a little better.
Download the file from here.

I've encoded a vinyl LP record into digital format and recorded it onto an usb as MP3 file. But when I tried to copy it onto my ipod classic, I get a message stating "was not copied to the ipod because it cannot be played on this ipod". Why?
I was refering to the "sample rate", normally 44.1 KHz, the iPod might not be able to play tracks with a non-standard rate. Otherwise I'm not sure what the issue might be.

Convert the Database records to a standard XML file format?
Hai,
i want to convert the Database records to a standard XML file
format which includes the schema name, table name, field name
and field value. i am using Oracle 8.1.7. Is there any option
please help me
Thanks in advance.You could put the files somewhere and I can export them as QuickTime. Or you could find anyone you know who has Director. Or do the 30 day trial download
Another approach would be to play the DCR in a browser window, and do a screen recording. But that’s unlikely to give the perfect frame rate that you would get by exporting from Director. -
Record Audio in mp3 file format using FMS
I am Recording Audio Using FMS which will record Audio file in FLV File Format default But I like to Record in MP3 File Format. Is it Possible.
And I also Record Video In MP4 File Format using h264 encode. Which Give me Video File in MP4 File Format but When i will try to play that MP4 File it Didn't play. So, I post-processed video with a tool called F4V Post Processor. Now That MP4 Video File Play But Didn't Give me Sound in that Video.
My Code is:
var h264Settings:H264VideoStreamSettings = new H264VideoStreamSettings();
h264Settings.setProfileLevel(H264Profile.MAIN, H264Level.LEVEL_3);
ns.videoStreamSettings = h264Settings;
ns.publish("mp4:"+FILENAME+".mp4","record");
I search Lot but didn't get the solution. So, Please Give me Solution for Both thing.The .flv format is a "container" format, not a video format.
So that means that inside the container, you can have a video file and/or an audio file or even just an audio file.. which most likely is already an mp3 file. Use something like "FLV Extract" to break open the container and see:
http://moitah.net/
But really, for any Web delivery of audio, the .flv (audio only) method works just fine. Lots of media players available for the Flash .flv file.
For example:
Sounds from my bunk on the Lady Washington
http://exploreolympics.com/reports/?p=2857
Scroll down to third media player.
A little quiet to start with... but this is a .flv file with just an mp3 audio file inside.
Best of luck!

Record audio file in a wav file format using QuickTime 7 Pro for Windows?
Is it possible to record audio file in a wav file format using QuickTime 7 Pro for Windows? The system I want to upload audio files that I record to requires they be in a wav file format / PCM - 112025kh / 8 bit mono / 11.05khz
Something tells me no...and I bought this upgrade for nothing...GRRRRRRRQuickTime Pro for Windows allows you to make audio recordings from some input devices.
You can then "export" these new files to .wav format at any setting you choose.
