EBS - File MT940 and BAI2

Hi,
In our current design we receive the electronic bank file from various banks in MT940 and BAI2 format. The requirement is to upload these file formats into SAP. Is it possible to do so using standard SAP transaction like FF_5? If not then what is the process to get these file formats in SAP for electronic bank statement functionality to work.
Thanks,

Hi,
It would depend on how you receive those bank statements from Banks.
Provided that you are downloading the bankstatement, you can use FF.5/FF_5 to upload SAP accepted format of bankstatement such as MT940, Multicash, BAI.
You will need to configure GVO or BAI code with posting rules, account symbols and transaction types. IMG path can be found in Financial accounting > Bank accounting > Business transaction > Payment transactions
Hope that this helps

  • EBS with MT940 format field 86 structure - the details of remitter

    Dear Sap guru,
    I am starting configuration for EBS with MT940 format field 86 structured. I have got the format from Deutsche bank.
    My problem is how to configure a search string to search within field 86 for Bank code of remitter (?30) and account number of remitter (?31). The search string appears to search the details of payment information (?20Bis?29) only.
    Could any of you provide your expertise on this so that EBS will pick up the remitter information ?
    Kind regards
    taro

    The field ?30 is stored in FEBEP-PABLZ.
    When the field ?31 contains an IBAN, it is stored in FEBEP-PIBAN (and the corresponding BBAN is stored in FEBEP-PAKTO); in the other cases it is stored in FEBEP-PAKTO.
    You should use these fields in a user exit.

  • EBS 2008 Console and SCE 2007 Crashes

    Hello,
    We recently had an issue where the EBS (Essential Business Server) 2008 Console started crashing.  We were able to identify that the OperationsManager database was exceeding the SQL Server Express 2005 DB limit.  We referenced the article How
    to Maintain and Reduce the Amount of Data Stored in the Systems Center Essentials Databases
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/essentialbusinessserver/archive/2010/05/03/how-to-maintain-and-reduce-the-amount-of-data-stored-in-the-systems-center-essentials-databases.aspx
    We also found that database size did not decrease and used scripts to reduce the LocalizedText database as it was very large.  Since the cleanup we continue to have Event Logs referring to failed inserts and also problems with the RunAs account.  All
    of the KB articles refer to solutions that require changes in the SCE Console, but the SCE 2007 Console crashes after attempting to run on our EBS 2008 Management server.
    How can we resolve our issues if we cannot start the console?

    Hi,
    Have you checked if event CLR20r3 in the application log? If so, would you please provide detailed information about the error? In addition, have you uninstalled WSUS before? If so, I suspect
    it’s because Windows Server Update Service was uninstalled. I suggest we could do a replacement mode install of Management Server. Please perform the following steps to see if it works.
    1. Install the management server using the EBS management disk
    2. Begin the installation of the EBS Management server and stop once you reach the EBS setup (OOBE) wizard.
    3. Press Shift+F10 to open a command shell. From here, install the EBS Preparation and Planning tools, but *DO NOT launch them* after they are installed.
    4. Replace WsusSetup.exe with the SP2 version using the following steps.
    5. Download the WSUS 3 SP2 x64 version. You can get it here.
    6. Rename the downloaded package from WSUS30-KB972455-x64.exe to WSUSSetup.exe
    7. Rename C:\Program Files\Windows Essential Business Server\Bin\SCE\Setup\AMD64\WSUSSetup.exe to C:\Program Files\Windows Essential Business Server\Bin\SCE\Setup\AMD64\WSUSSetup.old
    8. Copy the new WSUS package to C:\Program Files\Windows Essential Business Server\Bin\SCE\Setup\AMD64\
    9. Replace the WSUS_HOTFIX with an update for the Preparation and Planning wizard using the following steps.
    10. Rename C:\Program Files\Windows Essential Business Server\bin\WSUS_HOTFIX\KB954960_x64.msp to KB954960_x64.old.
    11. Download the KB 977195 update for the Preparation and Planning wizard to the server. Shortcut here.
    12. Extract the MSP from the CAB and rename it to KB954960_x64.msp. Copy this KB954960_x64.msp file into the folder C:\Program Files\Windows Essential Business Server\bin\WSUS_HOTFIX\ .
    13. Close the command shell and continue with the EBS Management setup. Select NO to updates.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to upload an image to EBS file server (Not store in database) with OAF?

    Dear all,
    I can upload an image into database with blob type. But I want to know how to upload an image to EBS file server. I try to search the forum but I cannot find the solution I want.
    Anybody can reallize it? Please give me some advice or idea?
    Thanks.
    Kenny

    Kenny,
    Framework doesn't provide the option of storing the images as files. You can write a javascript to open a popup and provide a standard HTML file upload component which will save the file on specified location.

  • How do I install Snow Leopard while keeping files, applications, and settings

    I need to update my system, I realized that I need Snow Leopard (quiet late) before Maverick. My question is, how can I install it keeping files and all the data. I found this on Internet, does it work?
    Install Snow Leopard while keeping files, applications, and settings
    If you follow these steps, the installer will replace your operating system if one is already present, but will preserve your account information and personal files.  You may have to reinstall some applications, however.
    Insert the install disc (or the first install disc if you have more than one) into your disc drive. Restart your computer while holding down the c key. This causes your computer to start up from the install disc rather than your hard drive. When you see the gray Apple insignia, release c . 
    The Mac OS X installer should open automatically. Follow the on-screen prompts to read and accept the license agreement and begin the installation. When prompted to choose a destination disk, select your preferred location and click Install. 
    When the Mac OS X installation finishes with the disc, restart your computer. After the installation completes, a configuration program may begin automatically if you are installing for the first time. You will need to supply basic setup information for your computer. 
    Update your system software to ensure that you have the most recent operating system components.  From the Apple menu, select Software Update... , and then follow the instructions on the screen. Often, you will have to restart your computer, and you may have to run Software Update multiple times before it can completely update your system.

    That's why you need to back it up. You won't need to restore the backup immediately afterwards unless something goes wrong during the upgrade, but you'll need it later; the drive will eventually fail.

  • Pdf portfolio source file name and date in file details

    Is it possible to import the source file name and extension as well as the source file created date in the portfolio file details?  Need to document source to portfolio in working with 3rd parties that will only have the original source.  Need to document what was converted into pdf as not all files in a directory will successfully convert to pdf.  Sometimes need to convert 100's of files.  Manual entry is inefficient.  the file names and modified dates are displayed on the Combine Files dialog.  is there a way to capture the detail on that page?

    I don't need the detail of when the pdf was added to the portfolio.  I
    need know which dwg or jpg or word file was converted and the original
    created date of that file for control of information.
    That is impossible; sorry. For some *very specific* types of conversion to PDF the pdfx:SourceModified XMP tag will be set to show the last-modification date of the source file (for example DOCX files converted using MS Word), but there will never be a human-readable record of the source filename or its creation date unless you have manually added them as document XMP properties after conversion (this is what the "Custom Properties" dialog is for). To embed source data automatically would raise no end of privacy and security problems for customers, who most certainly do NOT want their recipients seeing details of internal documents.
    Without writing a plugin there's no access to the internal workflow of the Combine Files dialog, so you cannot use a script to read the names and dates of the files *before* conversion and store them automatically in the new PDF Portfolio's Fields array.

  • Exporting catalog, making changes, then importing catalog does not update file movements and deletions

    I export part of my master catalog to a laptop.  I include the image files so I can edit the files at full res.  After managing and editing files I import the catalog back into the master catalog. When importing I check to replace metadata, develop settings and negative files. I have been running some tests to be sure all my work is being captured in the master catalog by this process.  I find that if I change develop settings or photo ratings this is detected when the file is imported and the data in the master catalog is updated properly.  The surprise is that if I delete files or move files among folders in the exported catalog these changes are not detected and these changes are not updated inthe master catalog.  It seems bizarre to me that such changes are not detected but I do not see how to get LR to recognize these changes and include them in the catalog update.  Without this capability I don't see how to use catalogs to move part of a catalog to another computer for edits and file management and then move back to the master catalog.

    There are various reasons why Lightroom works this way, but you'll need use pick flags to indicate photos to be deleted, and other metadata like colours or collections.

  • Download Helper, even with paid converter upgrade, gives "Invalid Capture File" errors and will not record audio, with "File Creation Error - Unable to rename/copy audio file" Error.

    Download Helper Screen Capture worked to capture video if the default "no audio" option is active. But, no audio. The "speakers" or "microphone" audio options are confusing....the audio to be captured is from the video, so what do you choose? With either "speakers" or "microphone" selected, the captured file has poor audio and no video. Re-capture efforts (speakers) get "Invalid capture file error" and "File Creation error- Unable to rename/copy audio file"
    The paid upgrade of "Converter" doesn't work.
    Instructive documentation - not very good.
    Suggestions - Need time delay between initiation of "Record" and starting the video to be recorded.
    Could use timer tracking of the record process.
    Are there operating system limitations? (Have Windows XP Pro)

    That is an issue for the developer of that Download Helper.

  • I have recently updated my CC programs to the latest version and now all of my files wont open by default into their respective programs, only if I open the program and go to file open and open the file from there. How can I fix this?

    I have recently updated my CC programs to the latest version (CC2014) and now all of my files wont open by default into their respective programs, only if I open the program and go to file>open and open the file from there. How can I fix this?
    I have tried 'Open with' and the version of the program now installed on my computer isn't even suggested as an option and when I browse for it, the file wont open with it anyway

    On Windows (don't know about Mac), the latest version will always take over the file association, and become the default for indd files. It's impossible to change it.
    But there is a plugin for ID that makes this possible. Never tried it myself.

  • Best Practises for File Sharing and Print Server on Windows Server 2012

    Is it better to have File Sharing and Print Server installed on the same Windows 2012 Server ?
    Or, they should be installed on 2 different Windows Servers ?
    Hussien Sherief

    It will work just fine to combine them.
    But most people would recommend keeping functionality separate... if the budget allows.  That whole "single point of failure" concept.  If that server dies, you've lost both of those functions.

  • I'm having a huge issue with itunes locating my missing files..and it's too many for me to locate 1 by 1..It says I'm missing over 3,00 songs and They are all in my music folder..What can I do to fix this issue?

    I'm having a huge issue with itunes locating my missing files..and it's too many for me to locate 1 by 1..It says I'm missing over 3,000 songs and They are all in my music folder..What can I do to fix this issue? I've looked at all the tutorials on youtube and none of it works. I recently got a new computer and I Back-Up all my music and itunes playlist and I import it on my new computer with the new itunes and I go to play a few songs, it says I'm missing them I locate a few but it's still like 3,000 missing and again they are all on the computer and in one folder..Please Help !

    I did that and nothing changed half my songs still have examination marks beside them
    I also just tried dragging my folder of music int he playlist and it duplicated all of my songs? My playlist was at 5k now it's at 10k becuz of 3 duplicates of songs. Is there a way to delete multiple duplicate files?

  • I received a gift card and when I redeemed it an error message said that I had some itunes files missing and that I needed to reinstall itunes.  Will I still have all my credits when I download itunes?

    I received an online gift card for Father's Day.  When I tried to redeem the gift then I received a error message saying I had some itune files missing and I needed to reinstall/download itunes.  Will I still have my previous purchase credits after downloading and reistalling itunes? 

    You will, because the credited funds are on your iTunes account, not the application. When you reinstall iTunes just configure it with your old iTunes account and your credits will be there waiting for you.

  • File.delete() and File.deleteOnExit() doesn't work consistently..

    I am seeing some odd behavior with trying to delete files that were opened. Usually just doing new File("file.txt").delete() would work. However, in this case, I have created an input stream to the file, read it in, saved it to another location (copied it), and now I am trying to delete it.
    The odd thing is, in my simple application, the user can work with one file at a time, but I move "processed" files to a lower pane in a swing app. When they exit it, it then archives all the files in that lower pane. Usually every file but the last one opened deletes. However, I have seen odd behavior where by some files don't delete, sometimes all of them wont delete. I tried the deleteOnExit() call which to me should be done by the JVM after it has released all objects such that they don't matter and the JVM ignores any object refs and directly makes a call (through JNI perhaps) to the underlying OS to delete the file. This doesn't work either.
    I am at a loss as to why sometimes some files delete, and other times they don't. In my processing code, I always close the input stream and set its variable to null. So I am not sure how it is possible a reference could still be held to the object representing the file on disk.
