IHC - Incoming Bank Statement

Hi Gurus,
When you import a Electronic Bank statement and you want some of the bank statement items to post to a current account in In-House cash, how will you instruct the system to do so? Is there any Algorithm which should be assigned to the Posting rule or is there any configuration setting in IHC?
I am familiar with EBS but new to In-House cash module. Please advise.
Thanks
Kalyan.

Hi Kumar,
1. How many IHC current accounts are suggested to configure when a subsidiary makes payment in many currencies?
In my opinion, it would depend on how IHC company and subsidiary are reconciled and in which currency. For example, if they are to be reconciled in EUR, it would only make sense that Current account to be maintained in EUR so that IHC has the correct balance.
2. Shall we use same clearing account( IHC clearing account, PT clearing account) used in centralized external payment process for payments in many currencies?
I would imagine you could have the clearing accounts for all the currencies that IHC has the external accounts with external banks - currencies that they hold so that you would have the visibility of clearing balance in IHC and its exchange rate impact in FI at the time of GL transfer with PQ clearing accounts.
3. IHC calculates transactional charge per transaction and post payment item automatically based on configurations. We want to calculate transactional charge, but on monthly basis. How it can be achieved
You may elaborate this. Are we referring to fix charge monthly from IHC to subsidiary if not calculated per transaction?
2. If we wish to transfer balance from all currencies to one current account, How it can be achieved? IHC cash concentration allow us to create heirerchy for accounts in same currency only
Indeed, cash concentration works only in the same currency, which would make sense anyway. what about using the manual payment order with internal transaction type? Even though manual payment order (credit/debit), you would need to use on currency, you may be able to transfer between 2 current accounts.
3. How can we cater to foreign exchange gain/loss using IHC?
As far as I know, you have some choices depending on who would be accountable for the exchange gain/loss. If it is IHC, you would simply use Final payment order from IHC and the real gain/loss would be posted by way of uploading Bank statements from external banks, while it is subsidiaries accountable for that, you look to the Provisional Payment process from IHC, create different exchange rate type for the Actual exchange rate from banks, process final posting in IHC0, which will reflect the real exchange gain/loss to subsidiary by way of FINSTA bankstatements
Hope that this helps

FF67-- Incoming Bank Statement Manual Entry

Calling FI Gurus
Could anyone pls tell me the configuration of FF67-Incoming Bank Statement Manual Entry.
Thanx in advance...

I undertand that you want help regarding incomming payments only.
You are know configuration perspective of BRS.
You can configure the same.
1. You have to define posting rules in manual BRS.
Define posting key & then posting Rule
The entry should be ( Define rule that)
Dr. Main bank A/C
CR. Sub control bank account
BK01 (posting key) 1 (Posting area) 40(Debit) Z_BANK( account symbol of main bank ) Z_AUTO_OTHER_IN( account symbol of Sub control bank Account) 5(clear credit Gl account)
2. Then assign posting rule to business transaction.
PK09 ( transaction) +(sign) BK01 ( posting key)
when you will do FF67 then BK01 should be inputed for incoming payment.
Please award points

IHC FINSTA Bank Statement not created in head office IHC account

Hi,
This is regarding Incoming Receipt for subsidiary in IHC.
I uploaded electronic bank statement with payment notes indicating it is a incoming receipt for subsidiary 3000.
IHC document is generated while executing FF_5.
FINSTA bank statement available in Subsidiary IHC account 3000010.
However there is no IHC bank statement available for head office 100010.
No Payment order is created in IHC0.
Appreciate the IHC experts out there to help me with this issue.
Cheers.

Hello Anya,
Yes I got it fixed by scheduling FEBP as job after bank statement generation in my IHC day end processing. Now the statements are getting posted.
Thanks for your post.

Already Cleared Customer Items on Incoming Bank Statement

Please advise on how to treat the below:
1. A Customer Invoice is Cleared by a Cash Payment at the Cash desk.
This CR- Customer and DR- Bank Clearing Account.
2. The money comes in on the Electronic Bank Statement on a Business
Transaction Code (BTC) that is used for all incoming Cash payments and
that is set up to post to Posting Area 1 (GL Accounting) and also to FI-CA (Subledger Accounting).
This is because the BTC can be used also for cash payments at the Bank
counter and which needs to clear Open Items on the Customer when it
comes in on the Bank Statement.
This will correctly post DR- Bank Cleared Cash and CR- Bank Clearing
Account
Question: How do I treat the sub-ledger posting for the BTC FI-CA. This
is because there will be no open item to clear on the customer as it
has been cleared in a previous step at the cash desk and even though
the posting will go into Clarification, it will post CR- Clarification,
DR- Bank Clearing Account which means a doubled DR to the Bank Clearing
Account in addition to the earlier Dr from the Cash desk posting.
Look forward to your urgent reply.
Regards,

Why post to the clearing account? You can directly post to the customer account.
Debit Bank
Credit customer
For this you have to create a posting rule which will be linked to the external code (BAI code if you are getting the bank statement in BAI format) and the posting rule should have 'standard algorithm' assigned to it.
Then while uploading the bank statement you have to give the range of customer invoice numbers against BELNR or XBELNR. The system will automatically identify the customer based on the invoice number on Record type 16 appearing in Bank statement and clear the open item and generate the above accounting entry.
For a detailed description of how the EBS works, please see the thread titled EBS posted by Sheena Mehta and answered by me.

Electronic Bank Statement and IHC update

Hi SAP Gurus
We are to configure the electronic bank statement in SAP to import all of the items such as deposits, checks, fees, ZBA's, etc for each Real bank account into the IHC (In-house cash) treasury company. Real Bank accounts are represented within IHC as Current account as well as Subsidiary companies.
Could any of you advise how to confirugre EBS in FI which will update Current account in IHC? Could you please guide me in details which configuration items I need to do within IHC (i.e. how to determine what IHC account corresponds to each real bank account)
Also how would I be able to configure IHC's Current Accounts (i.e Subsidiaries) to reflect ZBA physical sweeping cash movements between IHC company and Subsidiaries from EBS in FI?
Thanks for your advice.
taro

Hi Taro,
On uploading the EBS in the HQ/FI, there are basically 4 steps to post a payment order in IHC:
1. Determine if the bank statement items are IHC related
This is done successfully only if the account determination from payment notes or from external bank account is maintained correctly (see point 2).
2. Determine the IHC account (corresponds to the subsidiary) from either -
            a. the payment notes OR
            b. from the external bank account in the EBS
    You need to customize this in the following IMG node
Financial Supply Chain Management -> In-House Cash -> Account Management ->Payment Processes in In-House Cash -> Central Cash Receipt / Incoming Bank Statements -> IHC Account Determination from Payment Notes (OR IHC Account Determination from External Bank Account).
3. Determine the clearing partner account where the offset posting can be made
This can be customized in the following cutomising node:
Financial Supply Chain Management -> In-House Cash -> Account Management ->Payment Processes in In-House Cash -> Central Cash Receipt / Incoming Bank Statements -> Set Up Account Determination for Incoming Payment
4. Find the IHC transaction type for posting the payment order; to be cutomised in the following node:
Define Transaction Types for Incoming Payment -> Define Transaction Types for Incoming Payment
With this you should be able to post a payment order in IHC.
Hope this helps!

Bank Statement Processing for Netherlands format MT940

Number of items on IHC bank statement

Hi,
I am facing the following problem: when I have created an internal bank statement in transaction F9N7, the FINSTA IDOC contains 2 items but I have expected only one item. Can you confirm 2 items are correct or what should be checked in customizing to suppress one of those items.
Details:
two company codes S (subsidiary) and H (headquarter, IHC centre), both in the same SAP system ERP 6.04.
Company code S has an open vendor invoice, 100 EUR.
Company code S runs F110, house bank in IHC centre is used, PAYEXT IDOC is generated. Accounting: vendor (clearing) debit, waiting account credit.
In the IHC centre, IHC payment order is generated, status flagged for posting.
In transaction IHC0, the payment order is posted.
F9N7 generates the FINSTA IDOC, but it contains two items, 100 EUR debit, and another item 100 EUR credit. If I post the bank statement in company code S, I would expect only one item with accounting: waiting account from step 1 (clearing) debit, IHC liabilities credit. With 2 items in the statement, I could trick it out by posting:
a) waiting account from step 1 (clearing) debit / adjustment acct. credit
b) adjustment acct. (from a) debit, IHC liabliities credit.
After a) + b) I have the same situation, but I have posted 2 unneccesary items to "adjustment account".
My feeling is that I should not have 2 items in the statement, only one..
Actually, when I post the payment order in transaction IHC0, I can realize that 2 new records are inserted into table BKKIT.
The only difference between these 2 records are the following:
Amount (+100 EUR vs., -100 EUR) (fields T_AMOUNT and A_AMOUNT)
PAYMETHOD (0001 vs. blank)
TRNSTYPE (0150 Bank Transfer vs 5110 Credit Transfer)
ITEMTYPE (01 Ordering party vs.,02 Recipient)
REF_ACEXT (bank account no. of external vendor vs. virtual bank account number of subsidiary S with IHC) (similarly REF_BANKS, REF_BANKL, REF_NAME)
I am wondering if it is possible to suppress one of these records from being generated in table BKKIT.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Just noticed this is sill marked as unanswered.
The problem was that the wrong settlement account has been assigned, that's why company code S has received a statement for both items (outgoing and incoming).

Cross company posting for incoming payments on manual bank statement

Hello folks, could you please help Toine on this issue?
"We want to post incoming payments in the manual bank statement which
have to be cleared with open items of a debtor in another company code.
What customising settings do we need for such a posting? We are not
able to make the posting in our system."
Thank you.

Hi,
this answer does not help very much, the SAP message also told the same. In customising for transaction 1000, variant 0001 type 04000 is assigned (standard SAP delivery). Therefor I think that the postingrules for the manual bank statement are not correct.
We use two posting rules for a payment:
The first in posting area 1: 40 / bank account number debit; 50 / gl account credit posting type 1
Second in posting area 2: 40 / gl account, no credit postingtype 8
For a payment of a debtor in the same company code this works correct. But if the payment is destined for a different company code (the field for the different company code is in the variant for FF67), this doesn't work. Should we use other posting rules and if so which ones??
Best regards,
Toine

IHC Incoming payment - no posting on clearing account

Hello together,
I need some help with the processing of an external bank statement. I try to read an incoming payment from an external bank statement (MT940). When I post the bank statemenat with FEBAN I get two documents: one for general ledger and one for IHC. IHC posts only on one account (subsidiary) but the posting on clearing account is missing. I also don't find a payment order in IHC0. I've checked table BKKIT but there is really just one posting for each incoming payment. I've activated IHC partner (transactions BF12, BF22,BF 23), customized the BTEs 2810 (BKK_IHB_BASTA_IN_CHECK, IHC_APPL_XBS_POST) in BF 32 and I've entered an FI account for IHC in "Set Up Account Determination for Incoming Payment". Do you have any idea why it doesn't work?
I'm looking forward to your replies!
Best regards
Sabine

Hi Kalyan,
thanks for your reply! Unfortunately I'm still not sure if the whole posting process ist clear to me. I especially don't understand the IHC postings.
Let's make an example. Like you have suggested we have two companies: Company 1000 is the head quarter and IHC is assigned to it. Company 1000 acts as clearing partner for IHC, too. Company 2000 is a subsidary of 1000 and has an internal bank account at in-house bank.
Let's assume that the whole group makes some kind of external cash pooling. Subsidary 2000 transfers 100,- to the external bank account of head quarter 1000. Company 1000 gets an external bank statement including this transfer.
Step 1: First the external bank statement is being processed with FF.5 and FEBAN. Here are the resulting postings:
GL
   Bank Comp. 1000                     Clearing Bank
   100    ¦                                  ¦ 100
IHC
IHC Account Comp. 2000                  Clearing IHC
    100     ¦                               ¦ 100
Step 2: At the end of day the general ledger transfer is executed with transaction F9HI. There are only postings in GL resulting from this transaction (highlighted with >> <<).:
   Bank Comp. 1000                   Bank Clearing                 IHC Clearing
   100    ¦                         >>100<< ¦ 100                     ¦ >>100<<
Additionally there are some postings in the local systems of subsidiary 2000 and of the clearing partner (processing of internal bank statements provided by in-house bank).
Everything works fine except of the posting on account Clearing IHC (see step 1). Obviously IHC allows partial bookings. Is there any possibility to enforce a posting on the IHC clearing account?
Hope you can bring some light in the dark of spro.
Best regards
Sabine

Manual bank statement upload error FB727

Hi Experts
When we are uploading the manual bank statements using transaction FF67, we are getting the error message FB727 "There are no transactions that have this amount's plus or minus sign"
We are using SAP version 4.7, I am not sure how this message is coming and how can we correct this
I could see there is a OSS note for this but that is not applicable for version 4.7 and above
Rishi

Hi Rishi,
Message - FB727 says There are no transactions that have this amount's plus or minus sign
While assigning the Business transactions to posting rules you may specified the +/- symbol to Incoming payments. Similarly while entering the amounts use the symbols.
Eg: If the amount CHQ deposit (Incoming Payment) : +XXXX
If the amount CHQ Issue (Out Going Payment) : - XXXX
If the amount Bank Charge (Expense-Outgoing) : - XXXX
Amount with Symbol if you enter, Then you will not get this error.

Bank Statement Clearing - Multicash

Hi FI Gurus,
This is in regard with Automatic Clearing of Incoming payments from
customers while uploading Electronic Bank Statement (Format Multicash)
for Germany.
We have setup the system to clear the Customer open items while
uploading the bank statement on the basis of document number. Bank
Statement comes with the Customer invoice document number and the same
gets cleared automatically after uploading the statement.
Customer Invoice Document number comes at field 18 in the bank
statement. An eg is herebelow where 100000034 is the Document number:-
"20320500";"4989127861";1727;17.03.08;84223600;"Gutschrift";"Gutschrift";0;"051";"2703";9850,00;0;33;14.03.08;"";"";"KD.NR.";"RE.100000034 VOM
28.02.08 E";"URO 9850,00 ./. 160,41
SK";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"";"MAX
JENNE";"";"21050000";"0053004559";"051";27031981
Now, the issue is to achieve the automatic clearing for the Cutover
open items. Since the cutover open items will be uploaded with the new
SAP Invoice Document numbers and Bank Statements will be coming with
old customer inovice document numbers, there will not be any automatic
clearing of these items.
Kindly suggest a wayout to clear these cutover open items while
uploading the bank statement. Would it be possible to clear the items
on the basis of Reference no. where old document number will be given
while posting the document in SAP and hence the Reference no in SAP and
document no in bank statement file at field 18 can be matched.
I hope I am clear in the question.
Thanks!
Vikash

The Posting date is not defined in the BAI file. The program should pick up the statement date in the BAI file and populate the posting date with the same value. In reading through the documentation for the program RFEBKA00 which is run via FF.5, I discovered that the include program RFEKA700 deals with BAI format. The file that is downloaded from the bank, contains multiple accounts and their respective activity for that respective day. When we import the file, all the other accounts are handled correctly. That is to say that the posting date that gets populated in the clearing document is set to the statement date from the file. The issue that we are facing has to deal with the last account being sent in the file. On this account, the activity is missing the posting date so the system sets the posting date to the current date. When I review the line items from the file in FEBA, the last activity item in the file has the correct posting date, the rest of the activity items do not have the correct posting date. I can review this information by looking at table FEBEP. On the last records for the Bank Statement Date's file, associated with the last account in the file, field BUDAT does not have anything populated in the field.
I am at a total loss as to why this would work for all the other accounts and only the last activity item on the last account when I process the file.
Suggestions?

GL account issue with Electronic Bank Statement

Hi Gurus,
I need your help and advice with the following issue. We are using ECC 6.0 and have implemented electronic bank statement. It is working fine but we havea new requirements.
Presently all the incoming ACH (ACH in) are being posted to one GL account set- up for such payments +++++++++1. Going forward, we want to post customer incoming ACH payments to seperate GL account and all the other incoming ACH's should keep on posted to the old account +++++++++1. I do not have exposure to configuring EBS and not sure how should I configure this.
I would really apreciate if you can guide me with step by step details to do this set-up.
Thanks,
Best Regards,
Shalu

Usually ACH in or outgoing, the corresponding bank will send you a code.
so once you get into the config item for EBS
1. you create account symbols( ACHPAY and ACHPAY2) and assign accounts (++++1 and a debit account ++++2) respectively
2. Create posting keys, usually this is mimicked with a Z attached to the bank code for ACH payments (EX: 675 is the BAI code for ACH, create a posting key with Z675)
3. create rules for the same posting keys like debit and credit account symbols, doc types, what kind of postings it should post( clearing entry or posting to GL)
4. Create a transaction type and in the following step create external transaction types (usually bank BAI codes) and map them to posting rules and the processing types
5. finally map bank accounts to transaction types

Find out vendor refunds in bank statement

Hi,
vendor refunds and customer receivables are both incoming payment and they both look like a receipt on the bank statement. Can SAP helf the accounting staff distinguish on the bank statement between a customer and vendor receipt?
Many thanks for your help!

Hi,
Please look into your bank statement there must be difference between external transaction of incoming payment from customer and refund from vendor. And if there is no difference bank using same transaction there must be some note in 86: line level which will tell you the type of payment.
For segregate these incoming payment you use String matching functionality in EBS for your external Transaction type with your posting rules.

Arun

Hi
I implemented the EBS in my company 4 month ago and here are some advises on the problems i experienced in the setup process. As for the setup process it is straightforward just read the manual at help.sap.com.
We used the MT940 format for importing bank statements from our bank.
The first thing i would advice you to do is make a list of all the possible transactions that are to be handled by the EBS application.
Then make estimation of how many payments that are recieved in constant structured way which the EBS can handle. (invoice number in the text)
The people in our accounting department complained alot about the output format in the EBS not being userfreindly compared to the advises they recieved in e-mail form from the bank so if not the bulk of your payments can be processed automatically it might not be worth the trouble to implement it. (i still think they uses the the email to postprocess the transactions that was not automatically cleraed)
Make sure you havent got any other applications handling some of the transactions that are contained in the bank statement because this wont work. eg. we had a program automatically placing fx trades on customer and bank account which meant that when we recieved the fx trade on the statement it was already placed and therefore had to be placed on a interims account for later reversal.
We get alot of bankcharges on our payments and we set up the EBS to place them automatically on a bankcharge account if the difference between the recieved amount on the invoice was less that 30 dollars.(we just assume that a difference is a bank charge) This means that a customer if he wants to always can pay x dollars under the invoice amount because it will be automatically processed and therefore go unnoticed.
Establish a contact in your bank who knows how their MT940 format has been structured.
Then contact your bank and get them to provide some test statements of old bank statements.
Make sure that you are not the first customer for using the MT940 format or else you will end up being ginny pig for the banks possible mistakes.
As i learned the way banks interpret the MT940 format guidelines can varry quite alot eg. the ocmt field our bank interpreted as the original payed amount in its original currency. SAP inprets this field as the recieved amount in its original currency and therefore it always try to clear the OCMT amount if availleble which meant it always tried to clear the original amount even though there had been taken som bankcharges underways.
I also found out that our bank didnt really bother to specify the type of transaction (interest, fx contract, bank charges, check and so on) which meant we only had two external transaction codes availleble s103 for incomming payments and ntrf for outgoing payments. This gave alot of trouble as i had to identify the type of transaction through seach algorithms.
Our bank also had trouble creating the MT940 file because it has a limited number of characters availleble which meant in the initial file that it only gave the first x characters of each line and then left out the rest. This meant that the text was broken into alot of pieces and you hardly ever had a complete invoice number to clear on. We had the bank altering their format so they now leave out text at the end of the transaction instead.
In the implementation process we experienced that the EBS application created a payment advice each time the amount of the payment didnt match the invoice in the system. We implemented a note from service.sap which disabled this and just assigned the difference to a bankcharge account.
I dont know if you can use these advices but just felt i would try to warn you about the potential problems that i experienced in the process. .
If you have concrete questions to the EBS setup feel free to contact me and i will see if i can help you.
