DME payment file Citibank Paylink

Does any one have experience with payment file generated in tx F110 in format that Citibank uses, called Paylink?
Before I start to program myself in ABAP maybe there are ways to save time and money to get the payment orders (open items with vendors) extracted from SAP.
Thanks for your attention!

Thank you.
The sum and the number of credit lines (payment to the Vendor) was available. I wasn't sure how to get the debit line info, as it is our information, as to how much payment has been made from our bank account.
To ease the process, we will just hardcode the number of debit line items as "1" and then aggregate the Amount fields for both total Debit and Credit sum.
Thank you for your information. It was helpful.

F110 DME payment file: add a number of lead days to posting and value date

Hello,
For an Italian company, the DME payment file (F110) needs to be checked and approved by an accountant after it is created. This takes 3 to 4 days after which the file is sent to the bank. The bank will reject the file if the value date is three days late (date which the bank uses to process the file on). For fiscal reasons the accounting clerks need the have the same posting date as the value date
I managed to set the value date in the DME files a couple of days later. The setting I used (FBZP -> bank determination -> value date) adds the number of lead days to the value date on the basis of the posting date as defined by the user in F110. For some reason I cannot set it to 0 days, it always adds up 1 day. Is that a normal effect or have I changed the settings in the wrong way?
I found another setting in customising ("define value date rules") which seems to have the same functionality. In the help function it is said that the setting does not influence the payment program and that the program manages the value date. Is there another setting? Can this problem be solved without the help of a programmer?
Thank you very much!

Issue in Turkey DME payment file

Hello Gurus,
We have an issue in F110 payment file. We have configured DMEE for "GARANTI BANK" for Turkey country. we have encountered an issue while creating payment file in F110. System is not considering into the payment file if a vendor is having multiple bank accounts in the vendor master and invoices are posted with different partner bank type. We are not facing any issue for mutiple invoices paid for same vendor with same vendor bank account. The below example will give clear picture.
1) Vendor-1075847 having two different bank accounts in vendor master with partner bank type-0001 & 0002
2) Total three invoices are due for payment out of these, two invoices are posted with bank type-0002 and remaining invoice is with bank type-0001
3) When I run F110 for all three invoices, invoices gets cleared but in payment file to be sent to bank showing only one invoice amount which was posted with bank type-0001.
4) I believe that I need to do some changes in DMEE tree configuration to get all invoices information in the payment file but no idea that in which segment & tag to be done.
It woudl be great if any one shares their ideas/experiences in this regard.
Thanks in advance

Hello Friends,
We have come to the conculsion that whenever line items are splitting in F110 as shown in the attached screen shot, system not picking up the entire amount into the payment file which was cleared in the payment run. This issue is encountering only when payments are dividing into line items for that particular vendor.
For above example: first line item having two invoices to be cleared consiting of amounts 258,00 & 129,00(partner bank type-0001) and second line item having only one invoice(amount-119,00) related to same vendor(with partner bank type-0002). Because of this split at F110 level..., payment file which is sending to bank getting only first line item invoices amount-387,00(258,00+129,00) instead of whole amount-506,00.
This issue might be resolved by combining these two line items into one line item or by making changes in the payment medium workbench format(DMEE tree). I have considered & tried all possible field in FBZP & vendor master and unluckly nothing workedout.
Please share you inputs. It deliberately need at this point of time.
Thanks in advance

DME payment file to be exported automatically

Hello
We currently generate a payment medium in the form of a text file in different formats according to the payment method. This file is created when the last step of the payment run is carried out, and then the relevant person goes to DME administration FDTA and exports the file to a folder in the network. This file is afterwards imported into the bank system.
The problem we have is from the point of view of security and auditing since the file can be edited once exported and before being imported into the bank system.
For that, we are trying to automate the export of the payment medium. I have tried using the "file name" in the output control but although the log tells me that the output was transferred successfully, this is not happenning. However if I go again to FDTA and export the file (the system tells me that this was already exported although I can not find the file in the specified folder), then this is exported correctly (to the same specified location)
Can anyone tell me what we may be doing wrong? Also, does anyone know of a way of making the output file non-editable?
Or any other possible solutions to this issue?
thanks a lot

Diego - Here I have just corrected the spelling mistake in the above posting:
If you use DMEE (payment medium workbench) then in the variant, which you define in OBPM4 and assign it to a specific house bank and account ID, you specify the file name and path.
e.g./usr/sap/interfaces/R3Q/out/common/CGS_OUT_TAXACH
Here '/usr/sap/interfaces/R3Q/out/common' is the path to the SAP server and CGS_OUT_TAXCH is the file name. The path is case sensitive and typically you use lowe case letters.
When you run print program, the files get created and stored in the SAP server as per the above path. SAP also adds a 4 digit number to the file name and the file will be CGS_OUT_TAXACH0163. The four digit number is incremented every time a new file is created, something similar to our FI document number, to prevent the old file being overwritten by a new file.
After the file is created you can access the file using T-code AL11. In this screen " SAP Directories", you can then drill down to the final destination where the file is stored. So first you will see '/usr/sap/interfaces' (which will be at the bottom of this AL11 scree). Double click on this. Then you will see R3Q (which is the SAP system in this case Quality. In Production it will probably R3P). Like this keep double clicking on each sub directory 'R3Q', then 'Out' and then 'Common' and you will find the file which was created by your print program.
In order to prevent people from changing/editing this file, nobody (except the administrator) gets access to this directory. There will be a batch job (which is event driven and it will be kicked off as soon as this file is saved in this directory) which will pick up this file, encrypt it using PGP encryption program and send this file to the bank using FTP program. So nobody ever handles the file manully.
When the bank receives the file they can decrypt the file (based on the keys or passwords given by you) and then they can read the file and process.
We can also ask the bank to send a confirmation. This confirmation will contain total no. of wires in the file and the amount. Once we get the confirmation we can cross check the total with the number of wires sent by us and the total amount. All this - the process of encryption, FTP to bank, receiving confirmation and checking the confirmation sent by bank within SAP - requires custom program. SAP also has a standard product called Bank Communication which is a
add-on product with a separate licence fee etc.
Hope the process is clear. By this process you can ensure that no user ever handles the fie manually.

After F110 run in the payment file the account holder details are missed

Hai
After running the F110 pament run, In the payment file the ACCOUNT HOLDER name is missing . The ACCOUNT HOLDER details must picked up from VENDOR MASTER. This is happening when ACCOUNT HOLDER and VENDOR are different. When ACCOUNT HOLDER and VENDOR are same it is displaying Correctly.The Bottom line is when VENDOR=ACCOUNT HOLDER, in the payment file it is displaying the VENDOR name correctly. But When VENDOR is not= ACCOUNT HOLDER, in the Payment file ACCOUNT HOLDER name is blanked out. The bank requires the name in that field in the payment file.
Kindly Assist me
Thanks in advance

Payment Files - Irish Stdrd 18 for HSBC - 'Hub' account

Hello,
I'm working on config to enable us to send payment files to HSBC Net in the Irish standard 18 format.
HSBC have a requirement to transmit to them only a 6 digit account number; referred to as their HUB account number.
I have created a house bank & am able to generate the files ok, but this 6 digit account number is giving me problems.
Although I only enter a 6 digit account number on the house bank, the output file adds in two additional leading or trailing '0'.
I thinking that I will probably have to make a change to the program that creates the file, but was wondering if it is possible to acheive by the way the account number is formatted alone.
Has anyone come across this 'HUB' account number for HSBC Net themselves & if so can you offer any advise as to how you got the file to output in their required format?
Thanks
Steve

Louise,
For HSBC Net we are using two payment formats. MT103 & Irish Standard 18.
For both types I had to use T-CODE DMEE to create the two formats.
These are then linked to payment methods & are then used when generating a payment through F110. There are a number of things to setup to make these work & it took me a lot of playing around, testing & then fixing & trying again to get it right. there's not a lot of help out there for DMEE, I found looking at some existing formats helped, so you can see how they were built.

Payment File Download

Hi,
I am trying to download the payment file generated to my presentation server. This file is generated for Greece company code and has the vendor name in greek language. When downloading it gives me an error that "Individual characters could not be converted from Code page 4102 to Code P.1100.
I have maintained DCP 1704 (for Greek) and also 4102 in my user parameters. This allows me to download the file but does not display the vendor name correctly. It changes the name to some different characters.
In case you are aware of a possible solution, please revert back.
Thanks & Regards

Downloading Payment File

Hi All,
I created a format in DMEE transaction and in FBZP- Payment Method/Country i selected Use Payment Medium Workbench and i specified the format which was created in DMEE. In the screen Format Supplement was given.
Whether it is mandatory to give Format Supplement..? If mandatory what needs to be given.
I know Autopayment is created using F110 , but how to download this payment as File in the format created in DMEE.
Can anyone provide help for the above issues.
Regards,
Prakash

Hi
As per my previous experiance.. you need to create the payment file directly with transaction F110 and not with transaction FDTA.
What you need to do is to change in your program variant the "output medium" field in the program RFFOF__V (look at the bottom of the parameters screen). Change this field to value 2 (read the help of this field).
With this the file will be directly saved to the path you indicate in the field "File Name (for DME)" and you won't need to download it with transaction FDTAI hope this can solve your issue.

Nedd to configure DME(payment transaction) ve to change setting

Hi experts,
I need to change the standard entry class code in the batch header (batch is created by the programs SAPFKPY3 and RFKPYL00_MASS). Currently the batch header is PPD (for consumer and business).
I need to modify it like- PPD for consumer and CCD for businees.
Can you please tell me how can i run this batch....its giving me an error ACH:No payment medium created...(i am not able to create this)
Please suggest how to go about this.
Thanks,
Sanjoy

Hello Sam
When configuring the payment methods for the country (transaction OBVCU), choose the payment medium program as RFFOM100.
From se38, pls read the documentation for the program, which will give you the various options & the required config too.
You would also need to configure the instructions keys as required.
To generate the DME file, you have to run the automatic payment program with this payment method.
After the payments have been successfully posted, you can go to DME administration and with the help of dme manager download files on your PC.
SAP has determined that the standard print programs for automatic payments will no longer be supported, and will be replaced by transfer structures created by a tool called the DME Engine.
This tool enables the business to create DME output files without ABAP development, and can be attached to a print program and form for the creation of Payment Advices.
Outside of the DME Engine (DMEE), the majority of the configuration takes place within the following IMG menu path:
IMG Path: Financial Accounting -> Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable -> Business Transactions -> Outgoing Payments -> Automatic Outgoing Payments -> Payment Media -> Make Settings for Payment Media Formats from Payment Medium Workbench
Config
Assign Selection Variants
IMG -> Financial Accounting -> Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable -> Business Transactions -> Outgoing Payments -> Automatic Outgoing Payments -> Payment Media -> Make Settings for Payment Medium Formats from Payment Medium Workbench -> Create / Assign Selection Variants or transaction
OBPM4..select your format that you are using
Check in FBZP config that all is linked!
Although this is bitty but you need to work through it!
Start with FBZP, create all there than go to DMEE either to create your own format or use the standard ones.. than go to the menu path above and work through from create to assign...

Creating Payment File in SAP after executing Automatic Payment transaction

Hi,
Need to know how is the Payment file created in SAP after executing Automatic Payment Transaction and how do I see the file and the fields.
Regards,
Kiran

Hi,
If you are using EDI format for sending the file to the Bank, then you need to map the fields to segments. You can consider basic type PEXR2002. You also need to make configuration settings - like enable payment method for EDI etc.
Once the payment run is executed you can run DME - Data Medium Exchange to generate Idocs for the payment run.
Thanks

Outgoing payment file XML for Germany

Hi,
my customer wants to create a XML file for the outgoing payment file to the bank in Germany, when I look in the DMEE for the tree type PAYM, there is no format tree for Germany ? how can I configure this XML for Germany ? I have configured in the OBPM3 the DTAUS0 format as a XML, but is that enough or should I create a format tree for tree type PAYM for Germany ?
Kind regards,
Cor

You can download an xsd file from http://www.iso20022.org/message_archive.page?, then search for the format you need ( mine was PAIN.001.001.03).
This can be imported into EFM, then mapped as required.
Note that I did have to modify the xsd file, as the IBAN field was not set with min / max making it mandatory, but is not required in US.
Hope this saves someone else the 20 + hours I put into this!

Payment Advice and Payment Files

AT F110, i know it clears the open item line item and creates checks, but what is the Payment Advice and Payment Files that are created, where they will be created. How to see them. If it is to send to Bank how to send it. Please can any one eloborate.
Satish

Hi Satish
Payment advice is something you send as a notice to the vendor whoever is getting paid. Generally when creating the variant for the payment program you would have clicked the 'payment advice' check box for it to be printed along with the check. If you haven't clicked that, then please click that & you will see two pages, one with check & the other with the advice.
The second part of your question about files & how they need to be sent to the bank....if you are going to be sending for example ACH payment file to the bank, we need to use program RFFOUS_T to generate a file. The variant for this program has to be configured with output medium as '0' & file identifier as 'A'. But before that you need to make sure in FBZP -> House banks -> DME config there is something entered in 'Company number' field. Once that is done, please check all the standard settings like the payment method in country, in company code, etc. Also make sure there are bank details of the vendor in the vendor master. Then if you do the payment proposal & check the box that says 'create payment medium' & then if you goto 'Environment -> DME Admin -> PAyment medium' in F110 screen, it will take you to a user screen & then if you hit execute it will pull up the file that you generated. Then when you do the payment run, click on that 'create payment medium' box & it would have generated the actual file in DME admin screen. This file could be sent to the bank from that DME admin screen. Play with it for a little bit & I am sure you will understand that.
Award points please, if you find this useful.
Thanks

DME Payment Formats

Hi, I am working on a DME issue. Here the Funct Consultant has created a new payment format in which it ll pick the IBAN number in place of Bank A/C number of vendor for Automatic Payment transaction (F110) of Open Orders. The requirement is while doing the payments if the IBAN is blank then it should pick the bank ac number for that vendor.i might need to add a Function Module for this one but I ve debugged the program but not getting from where its getting the value for IBAN. Could you please give me some suggestion in order to solve this.
Thanks.
