Payment Media Workbench APP

Hi
Can any one tell me How does payment medium workbench differ from Classic payment medium programs?
Why should i use Payment Medium Workbench?
Will it help in creating Idocs.
Regards
Aravind

Hi Aravind
The truth is that it is now possible to generate IDOCS with the Payment Medium Workbench, and you don't need EDI to do it anymore. You can generate either files or IDOCS with the Payment Medium Workbench.
I have been in contact with SAP the last couple of weeks on SAP marketplace. I logged an OSS incident for this requirement.
I told them that the functionality to generate IDOCS via the Payment Medium Workbench (PMW) already exists in the program SAPFPAYM; it is just not creating the IDOCS correctly (I debugged program SAPFPAYM to find the problem)
I sent SAP my analysis and explanation of why the IDOCS are not generating when the PMW is used, as well as a proposed solution on how to generate IDOCS from any PMW layout. It is actually quite easy to implement. SAP then decided to create a Consulting Note for this requirement, since the solution is so straightforward.
SAP is busy releasing the note to all of their clients currently, but they said it is going to take some time.
Needless to say, I am now able to generate an IDOC from any PMW file; even SWIFT files. The IDOCS can be viewed in transaction WE02.
The advantage is that you can implement any file layout in the Payment Medium Workbench, and then create an IDOC directly from the PMW file. The only catch is that you will have to implement a custom IDOC and populate the custom IDOC through the PMW event modules (Transaction OBPM3).
I am not using EDI (program RFFOEDI1), although it is also quite easy to configure it as well

Payment media workbench & payment media Program

Hi
I was actually referring to the Payment Processing configuration:
Creation of payment media using Payment Media Workbench (Alternative 1)
Creation of payment media using Classical Payment Medium program( Alternative 2)
Which approach will we be using ? Does SAP Best Practices actually provides both options ? This will affect our config. for Check printing
Please guide me
Thanks & regards

Hello,
It depends on your business requirement and the client in which country they are continuing their operations.
SAP has created number of DME structure for example in case of payment medium. If you are referring to those countries use those DME structure otherwise create by using DMEE.
At the same time you can use the classic progrms in FBZP.
You can use either of these options accordingly to your requirement.
There is no best practice as such, it all depends on your business requirement.

Payment Media Workbench - Singapore DBS Bank IDEAL payment format

Hello,
for Singpore SAP does not deliver any payment medium format.
Neither a classic payment medium programm (RFFO*) nor a PMW format.
We will have to pay using the IDEAL format from DBS (Development Bank of Singapore).
(I got a format descrition from them and the information that they are not able to accept any other format - like SWIFT MT101.)
My questions
Who is already doing an upload of a payment file to DBS using IDEAL format ?
Who knows how and where to get this format for PMW (best, but also RFFOSG_U would be appreciated) ?
Thanks in advance,
Sepp Mayer / Germany

Hello,

Payment medium workbench vs. payment media program.

Dear Friends,
Anybody have idea about the Pro's and Con's for "Payment medium workbench" vs. "payment media program".
Regards
Rupesh

Hi,
There is no disadvantage by using PMW.
I repeat it is a tool for which we can create the file format as per our requirements.
You will create the file format in t.code DMEE.
You can create different format files for each payment method with a variant defined.
The user can decide on the layout of the note to payee, and select differing notes to payee according to origin (vendors, customers, personnel, travel expenses, Treasury, online payments.
There is no technical knowledge required to use this tool.
Please refer below documentation for more.

Payment advice sent by e-mail, payment media file to be created before

dear all
We have implemented e-mail as a way of sending out the payment advices automatically to suppliers.
Currently we execute the payment run, generate the payment media (which at the same time creates the payment advices and sends them out by e-mail) and then we import the file into our bank system, where payments have to be approved by a finance manager.
We occasionally have the problem that the payments are not approved on the banking system on time - however the payment advices have already be sent by e-mail because the printout program does it at the same time as the payment file is created. Previously, because the payment notes were sent by post, we only sent them out after confirming that the payments had been actually executed in the banking system.
What the finance department is asking for is whether the payment advices can be sent by e-mail only after the payments have been approved at the bank (and for this to happen the payment file has to be generated in a previous step) - Is there any way of achieving this?
thank you

Hi Rafael,
For this you will have to do the following.
Frist check with the ABAPer that whether there is any std. Program or function module in the system that can sends mail.
1) With the help of ABAPer create a SAP Script form as per the requirements of Client as Payment Advice.
2) Do the Configuration required for the Correspondence.
3) You will have to develope a Z program or functionmodule to shoot mail as soon as the APP is completed. This you will have to do with the help of ABAper.
4) Last but not the least you wil haveto maintain the email addresses of the vendors in their master record.

Idoc and cheque configuration using Payment Medium Workbench ( PMW )

Hello,
I need some guidance in configuring the idoc through PMW.
I copied the CHECK payment media and I am able to print the cheque.
I have checked the idoc options in the setting for the payment media but it is not generating the cheques.
I have seen SAP documentation, nothing specific is mentioned about configuring the idoc.
I believe that I need to create some customised event FM to create the idocs.
Can any one please provide me more information about the same.
Thanks.
Regards,
Mayank

Hi Mayank,
Ok, I understood your requirement. I am also facing similar problem I am able to generate IDOC's through APP by using classic payment program given in the payment method, in the IDOC's i am able to generate the check number, with out actually printing the same.
But when I want to run F-58 for check printing it is not generating because the program assigned is different.
I will also investigate the PMW scenario, if u r successful pls share the same.
regards
srikanth.

Multiple payment methods in APP run

Hi,
Can we create APP run with multiple payment methods example- Cheque and Bank Transfer in the same run. Kindly suggest.

Hi Nabin Ji,
As mentioned by others, mention the payment method for cheque and bank transfer in the parameters tab and also maintain the respective payment programs in the last tab Printout/Payment media.
In FBZP, you define a Payment program for each payment method.
You can execute multiple payment methods.

Payment media file not saved on the local PC in FBPM

Dear all,
In transaction FBPM, if I choose the option ouput to the file system and point out the path to the folder where the file to be generated on my local PC, by the running of the transaction I am getting the following error:
BFIBL02182 - The file XXXXXXXXX cannot be opened.
If I want to download the payment media file I have to download it manualy.
I don't have some access limitation on my computer.
For this error I found the following explanation in teh forums: The error message BFIBL02182 normally is showing because the directory that was used when starting the payment media program (for example, in background processing), cannot be read online. You should therefore choose a directory that can be written to and read by different machines.
Acctually I don't understand this.
I would like the system to download the file automatically by the running of the transaction.
Please could help, what I have to do, ? How to check if the chosen by me dirictory is possible to be read online?
Thanks in advance for the help?
Stefka

Hi,
Please validate the Payment medium: Selection Variant in T-Code: OBPM4 and then search the variant in T-Code FBPM, for the relevant Payment Medium Format, type the File Name something like this: C:\Documents and Settings\My Documents\Payment
Save
After the payment run is completed. You need to go to Menu in F110 screen and select Environment-> Payment Media->DME Administration, select the line and click Export button and select Download.
This is the only way you can download when the presentaion server is used.
Hope this helps....
Thanks,
Ashok

I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up. I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where I sync everythi

I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up. I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where I sync everything. I have authorized this new computer so I don't know what the problem is. I can't get on my old computer with my itunes account because the computer is broken. Not sure what to do

"I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up."
Correct. it does not magially appear in other places. It will only be where you put it.
"I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where I sync everything. "
Correct as well. Iphone will sync with one computer at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content.
You need to copy everything ( itunes library/contacts/pics/calendars/files/docs) from the old computer, or your backup copy of the old one, to the new one.

Why is Media Encoder app not listed in the apps for download in CC?

Media Encoder application does not appear in the list of apps I can download from Creative Cloud.
It appears as separate application in the Adobe products, so NOT part of Premiere Pro or similar.
How can I get to download the Media Encoder app?

PMW (Payment Medium Workbench) and needs to send Payment Advises to Vendor

Hi SAP Gurus,
We are using PMW (Payment Medium Workbench) and our client needs to send Payment Advises through mail. After running F110 system should trigger mail to vendor for payment advise.
We have created one DME format and it's working fine. DME file is getting generated when we assign DME format to our payment method.
we have also made the change for payment advice sending through email. Copy FM SAMPLE_PROCESS_00002040 to ZSAMPLE_PROCESS_00002040
Go to transaction FIBF
Settingsprocess modules of an SAP application
Add a new entry for 00002040 FI-FI ZSAMPLE_PROCESS_00002040
Make use of FM ZSAMPLE_PROCESS_00002040 for adding vendor email address and make the payment medium.
Now the problem is, we can not do this in one go, if we need to create DME file than we have to assign DME format to our payment method and if we have to send payment advice to our vendor than we need to use Payment Medium Program RFFOGB_T (standard program). It's radio button and we can not choose both the program and Payment Medium Workbench.
I need your valuable advice what need to be done in order to get DME file and payment advice send to vendor in one go.
many thanks for your reply.
regards,
SATVIR SINGH

F110 - Runtime error when creating payment media

Hi experts,
I use t.code F110, payment proposal is OK, payment run is OK, then I click on print job but there is no payment medium created. If I look at the print job log it says ABAP/4 raise exception.
In the testing environment everything is fine (payment media is created) but not in the production (I get the error)
Any idea?
Many thanks
Ben

Hi
Check the settings under
SPRO - Financial Accounting (New) - Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable - Business Transactions - Outgoing Payments - Automatic Outgoing Payments - Payment Media - Make Settings for Classic Payment Medium Programs
- Assign Payment Forms for Payment Method in Company Code
- Assign Payment Medium Program for Payment Method in Country
On completion of F110 run, you would get a print out option on top. Execute that and if required check in SP02 for any spool requests
Thank You,

Payment Media issue

Dears,
i recieved this error while running program SAPFpaym from se38 , any advices plz ?
No Payment Media Created in Format BNK_HSBC
Message no. BFIBL02159
Diagnosis
No payment media were created for format BNK_HSBC for payment group 0

Hi,
Go to the background before excuting the programme SAPFPAYM and create a variant.
Assign the variant which you have created to the payment method in transaction code: OBPM4
Before the second step, after creating variant in the first step, please assign the created format in FBZP settings in payment method.
This will resolve the issue.
Please revert back if having any more issues.
