F110 Generate Check Number without creating a spool.

Dear Gurus,
In F110 Automatic Payment Run, I want to generate check numbers but without creating a spool. I want to do so because the interface would give the cheque details straight away to the banks. Also a spool should not be created in system for control purposes to avoid duplication.
Thanks in advance...
Regards
Dhaval Thakkar

Hi,
Create a blank payment form and assign it to the payment method in FBZP. Thus no cheque is printed / spool created when running the print program in F110. At the same time cheque numbers are also generated.

Assign Cheque Number in Batch Mode (F110) without creating a spool

I don't understand why I can use FCH5 to assign cheque number to individual payment but I need to use the Printout/ DME when I want to assign cheque numbers in a batch?
We would like to assign Cheque Number to Payments in Batch Mode (F110 or other transactions) but we don't want to create any spool. Does anyone how to do it? .
Thank you very much for your help

I would presume it has something to do with Compliance and Control.
F110 is an automated process.
By allowing cheques to be manually assigned to payments without then printing them, it could lead to fraud and wrong doing.
By making sure the cheque number in the system is the number than is actaul physically printed on the cheque there is an extra control.
Also manually assigning the cheques numbers relies on people entering the correct info.
Hope this helps.

Check Printing without creating Vendor

Hi,
We print check by creating vendor (which is a standard practice). Could you pl sugest me the wayout where I can directly Debit Expenses account and issue check in the name of Vendor.
eg. I want to make a payment for Advertisement without creating Vendor / Bill booking & want check printing in the name of Advt. Agency.
I have tried RVND (Free from vendor) but it doesent work.
Pl help me out.

Hi,
Will you help us ?
After inputting the Parameters in T/Code - F111 - for clearance of Payment Request ( for Vendor) we cannot edit the Proposal. We get a message as "Company Code ABC / ABC do not appear in Proposal 17.01.2008 1 R; correct".
Hence we went to view the Proposal list (Path - T/code F111 - Edit ->Proposal ->Proposal List), where the system has shown the above message.
If we execute T/code F110, it is also showing a window with the Program "RFZALI20", but after pressing enter, to go ahead it displays the "Open items", which could had been there in Vendor Line Items Display.
Is it a thing that Program "RFZALI20" is not picking the data in T/code - F111 ? or anything else we need to customise ?
If you are having any Customisation before for using T/Code - F111 pls. forward the same at [email protected]
Thanks & Regards,

4 Possibilities -
> Check if you have the RFFOUS_C program defined for the payment method in Country settings - FBZP.
> Check if your variant for RFFOUS_C has the right payment method for printing checks.
> Check if yo have any other proposal for same vendor already created but not finished the payment run for that. It might be due to duplication of entries.
> Check your check-lot. Hope its not exhausted.

Check Number and F110

Hi,
While running F110, the check number is not picked up from my check lot I gave in the print variant. (I am giving Payment method, Bank account number, Account number and check lot number, along with all the other selections in the print variant).
1. Any suggestions why the check number is not picking up?
2. For my ABAP reports, I need check number Table and field names. What table do I get the check numbers from?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Hi Sam,
Go to TCode FCHI Here you need to provide check no range for a lot no. IF check number range is available then check which lot no is being available. Give that lot number in variant maintained for F110. then try executing it.
If above does not solved your problem try this also:
Put a break-point in your print program & go to TCode FCH7 then reprint any available check. This time you will be in Debuggin mode. no check the structure REGUD-CHECT. weather check no is 0 or not?
If this initial then it means Strucutre is not filled. In this case open another session & go to TCode SE11 & provide table name PAYR. in this table check weather check no is initial or not. If it is initial then there is some some problem in defining Check lot numbers.

Viewing check number in payment document.

Hi,
I have made an outgoing payments through F-53. Two document numbers: 1800000012 & 1800000013 were generated Then i issued a check through FBZ5 & FCH5 respectively. Now i went into FB03 & displayed both above mentioned document numbers. But i am unable to view the check number. How it can be possible to view check number in document. I want to view check number without using TCode: FCHU (i.e. assigning check number to document number)

But while creating a check in FCH5, i have to manually feed the house bank and account id. Actually it should be default from bank we credited at the time of making payment.
I need to have this control because user mein credit other account & house bank & account id may be selected for other bank.

MICR Check Number needs to be 6 Digits

My current Check number on the MICR String is 5 digits, the bank requires it to be 6 or more, how can I alter the XML code to show that extra 0 in front of the check number without altering the Document Number at the DB Level
Thanks for any help in advance
Rosa

I added the following pl/sql functions to my rdf and passed it thru the xml data
function XXNS_MICR_STRINGFormula return Char is
l_micr_string varchar2(200);
begin
l_micr_string := '/'||to_char(:C_CHECK_NUMBER)||'/ &'||:C_ROUTING_NUM||'& '||
:C_BANK_ACCOUNT_NUM_ON_US||'/';
return(l_micr_string);
end;
you can probally use the concat() function in XMLP and do the same if you don't know how to edit the rdf......

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.

Check Number not being generated

We do not have SAP Check printing functionality activated right now. So the checks will be handwritten. When i created the Payment Method for check, I assigned RFFOEDI1 in the payment medium program. I also created the check lot for that House bank and Company code in FCHI. I created a variant for RFFOEDI1 although i dont really need anything printed. Now when I am executing payment run, the payments are being posted fine. The check number is not being populated. I checked the Register (FCHN) and there are no entries. The Vendor has CHeck payment method in the master record and the payment method is also assigned as "Checks" in the Invoice.
Not sure what is wrong. Help is highly appreciated.

Hi,
In case you use the check printing program from SAP, it will generate the check information and will assign to the documents automatically. However it is upto you whether you need to print the checks or not? But the check numbers have been generated by SAP. You can manually create the check for the payment documents matching those check numbers.
The only thing is that the manual control should be there so that the check is manually created with same number as system generated in payment run. (Otherwise, do not generate check in F110, rather create check manually and assign to payment document in FCH5.)

Gaurav

F110- Check number and open item

Good Morning SAP Guru's,
A new one for me here that I need some help with-
I executed F110 on our payment method 9 and I got a debit entry to offset the item and it moved them to cleared however I still have the item in open items as a credit. Is this because I didn't print the check yet? The debit entry has nothing in the reference field which would/should be the check number if printed.
What am I doing wrong?
POINTS PROMISED

hi,
After running the Payment Run you have to do 1 more step
Fo to Tcode Se38 and enter the RFFOUS_C and execute it.
It will ask u abt the Program Run date and Identification Feature, pls fill all the required information and execute it.
Pls note u must creat the Check lot number in Tcode FCHI.
Assing points if this solution is works out......

Check number assignmant in F110 transaction

Hi Expert,
I am using the transaction F110 for the automatic payment and generating the IDOC for same. But my requirement is i need to assign the different check number lots based on the specific condition.
so please any one tell me is there is any user exit is available in the F110 transaction for this.
Thanks in advance.

HI,
each time when you excute F110 t.code, you need to void the check in FCH9 T.code.
based on Run date and Identification your variant will take check number automatically.
in the Print/output medium u need to maintain variants.

Check number not generating

Hi Team,
Please can you suggest me.
While execute the F110 check number not generated.
I given correct payment method and i checked varient,accont id, check lot is it correct
Posting orders: 3 generated, 3 completed
Program RFFOUS_C: No records selected
The following documents were not processed since they will be sent by EDI
    CoCd Payment document/Payment order
    MASN XXXXXXXX
    MASN XXXXXXXX
    MASN XXXXXXXX

Hi,
I think this error of "The following documents were not processed since they will be sent by EDI" is coming because your payment method is assigned for EDI Compatible Payment Method.
To check this, Go to TCode FBZP and select Config Button House Bank. Then in the House Bank Config screen, click on the tab
EDI Partner Profiles - and then click on EDI comp. pyt mthds.
Although your field in EDI Partner Profile could be blank but still you need to click EDI comp. pyt mthds button. Here check if Payment Method C is assigned. If so then delete the line and regenrate the Check Number through SE38-RFFOUS_C

Sanjay

Generate an unique number without sequence

Hello,
I need generate an unique number without sequence. I am using Oracle 11.2, here is the details. The column idSeq is unique withing one specific idType. I don't want a sequence for each idType.
create table tb_test (idSeq number(5), idType number(5), addr varchar2(256));
insert into tb_test
(select case when idSeq is null then 1 else max(idSeq)+1 end, 3, 'Main street');
I am having ORA-00937 : not a single-group group function error, any suggestion?

I am having ORA-00937 : not a single-group group function error,Right. Since the sub-query is using an aggregate function (MAX), everything in the SELECT clause must be an aggregate, a group by expression, a constant, or something that depends entirely on them. In this example, the CASE expression depends on idSeq, which is not an aggregate, not a group by expression (there is no GROUP BY clause) and not a constant.
Also, the sub-query must have a FROM clause. All queries and sub-queries in Oracle require a FROM clause.
any suggestion?Use a sequence. The numbers won't be consecutive within each idType, but what does that matter? Chances are, no matter what you do, you won't be able to maintain consecutive numbers within each idType anyway.
If you won't use a sequence, then you can try:
INSERT INTO tb_test (idSeq, idType, addr)
SELECT 1 + NVL ( MAX (id_seq)
              , 0
,       3
,     'Main street;
FROM     tb_test
WHERE   idType = 3

Check InDesign data merge template for errors without creating document?

I've got a big InDesign template with hundreds of rows. Producing a full batch takes over an hour, and sometimes crashes. The deadline is fast approaching, and I'm waiting for the final minor amendments to the content spreadsheet, which could virtually land any minute.
I want to check for overset text errors on the current sheet without creating a merged document or PDF, so I can get on with fixing any likely major problems before the final sheet arrives - but I don't want to create a full merged doc, because that will take a very long time and will that doc's content will be obsolete, whereas the overall length of the text will change very little.
When you create a merged document, you have the option to turn "Generate overset text report" off. What I want to do, is ONLY generate the overset text report, without actually storing the merged document in memory.
Is this possible?
The closest I can see is click through the "Next" button in the Data Merge palette with Preview turned on, while watching the "No errors" preflight panel notification at the bottom of the screen. This is probably faster than creating a full merge, but still very slow.

That is what Indesign does when it does a data merge, it creates copies of the document and there's no way to change this. Have you tried exporting to PDF (In CS4 you can do this in one step from the original) and printing? I've never had anyone confirm it definitively but I'm pretty sure that the PDF created will be an 'optimized' one, meaning that when it sends it off to a compatible printer the images will be sent once and cached, with only the text that changes being sent separately.
Definitely worth comparing it to Publisher for speed anyway, Office programs can merge straight to the printer, but in effect they're doing the same thing. There are programs out there for doing far fancier stuff than data merge, probably the best is XM Pie, but unless you've got a printer that recognises their language they're a waste of time in this circumstance anyway.

Check Number after F110

After I run F110 (Automatic Payment Program), the check number of the payment document doesnot get populated in the Assignment field of the Vendor Balance display?
This would lead to problems in BRS.
Kindly advice how to get the check num bers in the Assignment field.

Hi khushboo,
After F110 and before executing Bank Reconciliation Statement, you need to run FCHU transaction code to populate the Check No. in the Assignment field.
