EDI 820 paying multiple customers

When I have an inbound 820 partnered with one customer but the payments in the 820 apply to multiple customers. I have entered the alternate payee as the partnered customer on the customer master of each related customer. The 820 enters the partner customer number in the atl. payee field in the payment advice and not the customer number associated with the invoice number? Is there a configuration guide of OSS note that shows the proper setting for this?

Inbound EDI multiple customers using 1 partner profile

I would think that it's possible to set up a single partner profile in WE20 through which you can process multiple idocs against multiple customers for order processing. Can anyone guide me on how to achieve this.
Thanks, Mart

Absolutely. You could have an EDI Partner called 'GENERIC' for example, and could use that to process inbound EDI Sales Orders. Obviously you would need an identifier to represent the correct Customer account, ideally this would be the Sold-to number. If it's not your Internal Sold-to, but another unique number, then you should be able to add mapping via transaction VOE4 to table EDPAR. I.e the Customers sends an external number 123 representing their Store Id, you map that back to your internal Customer Number. Only trouble with this is if two different Customers had the same external Id, as you would have no control over that. For our generic EDI Partners, the Customer Number is mandatory.
Cheers, Paul.

Is there a way for EDI 820 (remittance advice) to identify proforma invoice

Hi,
We have certain customers who pay by proforma invoices. These customers send remittances through EDI 820 which we create as payment advice in SAP. When the cash comes in, the payment advice is not being applied since the document number has the proforma invoice and in FI, the proforma invoice is not stored anywhere.
Proforma invoice in our case is a consolidated billing document that is not passed onto FI. Any thoughts to have the payment advice apply when the cash comes in even though the customer pays by proforma?

Lockbox - Multiple customers on one payment advice

I am having an issue with setting up an EDI process creating a payment advice for automatically clearing customer invoices when there is a head office paying for other branches that are set up as customers themselves. The payment comes over with multiple payments for multiple customers. I have the invoice nubmbers it is paying for, but when I run these through our process it puts the payment on the head-office customer and not the other customers that the invoice actually ties to. I have set up alternate payers in XD03 and have set up a worklist in OB55 with a length and prefix, but that does not seem to solve my issue - it still places the payment into the head-office account.
When I step through the code I see the worklist get called and it is picking up the customer, but I don't see anywhere where this gets used in the rest of the code. Is there something else that needs to be set up for this to work? I have seen another question on this topic before, but ends with the solution that a prefix needs to be set up. Since I have this set up and things are still not working I am not sure where to go.

Hi,
A payment advice is in principle a preselection of the open items.
In Trx f-06 enter header and payment details. In open item selection enter the first payment advice, and press enter. The next screen is then open item processing, from here EDIT>Select more jumps to a screen where you can add more open items (including payment advice).Repeat this step for each advice.

Lockbox BAI2 - EDI 820 Payment Advice

Hello All,
Thanks very much for your time.
We currently have lockbox with BAI2 format file coming in from the bank for all our customers.
As an enhancement, we want to implement lockbox payment advice to come directly from the customer through EDI 820 payment advice and will only receive the payment header (the 6 record) on the lockbox file from the bank.
The small customers will still follow the current process - send their check and payment advice to the bank and the detail will be transmitted via the BAI2 lockbox file.
I know this can be done - but have some questions regarding the timing of the files and the set up process.
When the EDI 820 payment advice file comes in first, the system can be set up to wait for the header file from the bank to clear the customer account / open items. But if the lockbox file gets in the system before the EDI 820 payment advice file, the payment will get posted on account based on the MICR number without any customization process. Is there a process that has been successfully implemented to deal this scenario?
Please let me know and thanks again for your help.

Incoming payment advice or outgoing? I don't have the details with me, but roughly, you will have to work with the ABAP and EDI people to convert the EDI into the relevant IDOCS (I think the IDOC type is PEXR2002 and msg type is PAYEXT). For automatic postings for incoming EDI/IDOC payment advices the FI consultant will then define the posting rules to the relevant G/L accounts (TCode OT83).
Thanks,

Can I use Signal Express for multiple customers for only the one time $699?

How do I go about distributing Signal Expresss applications to multiple customers?

Hi Nutter,
Unlike LabVIEW, Signal Express doesn’t have any file distribution capabilities. If your application uses only basic features, you could install the free LE version of Signal Express on as many computers as necessary. If you need the full capabilities of Signal Express, however, you would need to purchase a license for each customer.
An alternative to paying for Signal Express for each customer deployment would be to generate LabVIEW code from the Signal Express project and create an executable. This process is described in the Knowledge Base articles Generate LabVIEW VIs from Signal Express and Deploying VIs generated in Signal Express. Note that this method requires that you have LabVIEW installed on your development computer with Application Builder capabilities.

Payment from multiple customers in F-28

Hello Experts,
I have scenario where one customer is created as multiple customers in SAP.
DEF Limited has presence in three states. Hence three customers are created in SAP with customer number: 1000, 1002, 1005
I did billing of Rs.500 for each customers. Later I received Rs. 1500 (Rs. 500 from each customers of DEF i.e. Rs. 500 * 3). Since payment document should be one, in F-28, I clicked "process open items" thrice. This suffice my requirement.
But there is one problem here. I need to click "process open items" tab three times. This will be very problematic for selecting multiple customers when its 30 - 40 customers payment in one payment document.
So please tell me, if there is any solution where I can create one customer group (not account group) and select that group in F-28. Once i select that group, all open invoices related all customers in that group will appear in F-28.
This will help us performing transactions faster.
Please help me with some solution on this.
Deepak

Hello,
One option is to use worklist for customers (transaction code for customer is OB55).
Problem is that this transaction is part of customizing reason why I seldom used it in the past.
A possible solution would be to add it to the "current settings"

Can we use the same credit card for multiple customers???

One of my clients has a requirement where they need to use the same Credit Card number for multiple customers. I have looked into the possibility of using the 'Alternate Payer' functionality but besides that is there any other way SAP can be tweaked to accept the same credit card on multiple customer accounts?
Thanks in advance for any help or guidance you may provide.
SJ

I know SAP throws an error message which is why I was looking for a solution. I do have a work around. By pointing to an 'Alternate Payer' on the Payment Transactions tab on the customer master you can have a credit card on this alternate payer master record and use this payer on several other customers. All these customers will not have any credit card stored on their master records.
Thanks for your response though.

Creation of EDI 820 for outgoing payments in SAP

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement where in we need to create an outgoing payment file in EDI820 with in SAP.
We basically need to create specifications in EDI820 format for the bank to print checks and make wires and EFT payments.
That EDI820 file will be created at the time of Automatic Payment Run(F110).
Right now our client is sending a flat file to external service provider and they are creating EDI820 files and sending to the banks. Going forward the services of this service provider will be decommissioned and an EDI820 file is to be generated in SAP and sent to the bank via SWIFT Net.
Bank has provided us a sample file and file format for EDI820. This file format contains ST, BPR, RMR, REF etc records. There records have different codes and qualifiers.
As far as we have analyzed, there are no standard SAP programs that can generate flat file in the EDI 820 format. Therefore we are heading towards developing a Z program for creating an EDI820 format.
We are facing problem in mapping this file with SAP fields. We need to know how exactly we can map this file in SAP so as to create a program to generate EDI820. If anybody has had a similar requirement (for creating outbound EDI820 in SAP) and can provide us some lead, it will be greatly helpful for us.
Thanks in advance for the help!

Have you worked on this requirement?
Could you please provide step by step instructions to configure and the high level process?

The program that sends the flat file should give you all the necessary fields, selection criteria, etc. If the third-party constructs EDI820 from it, then there is enough data in that file for you to add steps to create an 820.
So, I'd start with the existing program, a particular outbound file and a copy of the 820 file created from it (if that can be obtained) and figure out how the intermediary converted the data to the correct format. Piece of cake, right?

FDM_AUTO_CREATE for EDI 820 Deposits

Hi Experts
We are using the EDi 820 from the customer directly for the Incoming payments and credit memo (Deductions taken by them).
The transactions failed in the EDI 820 inbound process will be run through the post processing in FB01 and F-28.
Still we are going to have the transactions from EDI 820 which can not be matched to the corresponding invoice number because the customer provides their own credit memo reference num.
After few days can we take above finally failed transactions and create them as Dispute cases in FDM_AUTO_CREATE instead of the manually via F-28 or FB01.
FDM_AUTO_CREATE runs for the Automatic incoming payments and Open items options.
Which method or option is to be selected in it and what are the input selections to be used for EDI 820 failed transactions.
Please advise accordingly.
Thanks
Regards,
Meenakshi.N

Hi Mark,
Thank you very much for your response.
However as I mentioned, some disputes were created for this customer in the same batch job. So I dont think the customer could be locked for any reason.
If I try to run FDM_AUTO_CREATE in the foreground in the test mode for this particular document, it does propose to create a dispute case for this line item.
So not sure why this document could have missed in the batch job.
Thanks

Dear Abdul,
I copied the file from your posting into a text-file and tried to convert it with my 820 BIC-Mapping.
I just had to make two modifications:
- add some spaces so that the Sender/Receiver fields in the ISA segement were 15 fields long
- remove a "space" before ENT*1, but this space might also just have been there because of how you posted the content into this posting.
After I had made this small changes the file could be translated perfectly fine with the mapping
See_E2X_ANSIX12_820_V4010
So it looks like eitehr your settings are not correct in the channel (e.g. a wrong mapping is used) or the file has been modified manually (with some additional blanks, CRLF, etc...)
