Payment Wizard: BP "All Currency" but payments always in Local Currency

Hello!
This is a change request regarding the Payment Wizard.
System behaviour: When a Business Partneru2019s currency is set to u201CAll Currenciesu201D in the Business Partner Master Data, the Payment Wizard always suggests payments in Local Currency, irrespective of the currency on the AP Invoice and irrespective of the currency specified in the Payment Method Setup (Currency Selection). In order for the Payment Wizard to post the payments, the correct currency has to be selected manually on Step 6 of the Payment Wizard.
Problem: This can be very time-consuming.
Suggested solution: The Wizard suggests payments in the currency of the AP Invoice.

Payment Wizard Run does not create Payment/Check

Does anyone know possible reason/s, why payment wizard run will not create payments and checks?
The wizard goes up to Execute Step, after execution, it shows:
0 Payments Created
0 Checks Created
I have compared settings (Banking, BP, Payment methods) with Demo Company (Where wizard runs to create Payments and Checks)
The client is on SAP B1 2007A
Thanks in advance for help

I've found several reasons for the Wizard not creating checks. I don't know if any of these are relevant to you, but take a look.
1. The vendors do not have default pay-to addresses. They may have pay-to addresses, but if there is not one that is designated as the default for each vendor, the wizard will not select any checks for them.
2. The vendors have a default house bank that is different than the bank you are using for the checks. It is OK if the house bank for a vendor is blank, but it cannot be different from the bank you are using.
3. If the vendor reference number on any AP invoice is more than 34 characters long, the wizard will not select any invoices from that vendor for payment (yes, the reference number field is 100 characters, but SAP support confirmed this limitation). Since you are not getting selections for any vendors, this is probably not the issue in your case - but keep it in mind.
I hope this is helpful.

Why we should give currency type 30 in 2nd local currency ?

Hi,
why we should give currency type 30 2nd local currency in Define Currencies of Leading Ledger. Here 30 indicates EUR only. I want to give USD as 2nd local currency.
Please suggest.
Thanks,
Gangaraju

Group currency is unique at client level, i.e. this is same for all company codes.
go to scc4
Check the currency of your client.
This currency comes by default for group currency and you can't give as your own.
If you have any requirement, then you can give it as third local currency.
Also remember third local currency you have to maintain at first country level.

Foreign currency invoice not shown in local currency

Dear Experts ,
Can you please help me to resole
In my company code currency is INR and my foreign currency is USD , when i posted a invoice in foreign currency it shows in print preview only in foreign currency that is USD but i want to see the local currency INR also for that invoice when in view in VF03
please tell me how to do this
Thanks in Advance
Bhaskar

Hi,
Make sure that in VF03 the document is displaying as per your criteria.
Else you need to add layout of local currency value from layout design.
better you check the table that the correct value is generating ( I mean the local currency information is updating or not)

Create vendor payments WITHOUT Payment Wizard

Hello,
We recently set up the Payment Wizard in our system but we have found it does not suit our needs. Is there some way to see an open list of all individual invoices, select which invoices to pay, and create a check run on your prescribed date? Paying by "due date" or "aging date" for several invoices blindly selected through these parameters in SAP is not a path we wish to take. I would like to avoid using the "Block payment" method also. Up to this point we have been creating payments using the Payment Means icon, but this creates a bank reconciliation nightmare as all payments are created for the AP Invoice date. Please advise. Thank you!
Best,
Matthew Siegfried

Hello,
I set the due date to over a month ahead to include several invoices but none appeared in the Recommendation Screen. I'm not sure what I'm missing. It's not the most intuitive program is it?
Thanks for the feedback.

Payment Wizard was not executed [Message 3657-5]

Using SAP 8.82 PL6.
I am trying to do a Payment Wizard for a company but when I run my wizard for all vendors or even for only 1 vendor, it fails with error message in subject line.
I already followed all steps of SAP Note 725786 - Definitions necessary for the payment wizard, so please don't send me that again or the related thread.
The only difference is that when the A/P invoice and A/P credit memos were created for say the single vendor ABC, the PeyMethod field was blank and before the payment run, these fields were populated with 'Outgoing check' payment method. Then the payment wizard was run, every step was okay except last step gave the error in subject line.
In Step 8 of 8 if I click non-included transactions, I get the message "In "Posting Date" field, enter posting date that is equal to or earlier than system date (Line 1)" but this message does not appear in the step 6 of 8 when I click non-included transactions in that step!!!
My posting date in invoice and credit memo is Mar 31, 2014, and system date is Apr 12, 2014.
I am able to create individual vendor Outgoing Payment transactions manually but not through the wizard. There are 300 vendors so I would like the wizard to work.
> The House bank is properly defined in setup as well in the vendor.
> The Vendor Payment Run tab was populated after the invoice and credit memos were created
> The Payment Method fields in invoice and credit memos were populated after these transactions were crested since they were blank
> The Business Partner Bank in 'Payment Terms' tab was blank since it is not an EFT/ACH transaction. These fields were also filled with a dummy bank but got the same error.
> Again, I am able to create a manual Outgoing transaction for each vendor one-by-one but the Wizard gives above errors.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ajay Audich

Hi,
I was able to run the Payment Wizard. It was a simple fix really.
In Administration > System Initialization > Document Settings > General Tab > the box "Allow Future Posting Date" was unchecked > After checking it off, the Payment Wizard worked fine without the above error.
The manual Outgoing Payment that worked, after checking now, had a posting date defaulted to Apr 12, 2014 hence it worked manually but failed in the wizard!
Hope this helps someone else with a similar problem in future.
Cheers,
Ajay

DRQ: Allow choosing correct Business Partner bank account in Payment Wizard

Hello,
This is a DRQ about the Payment process.
It concerns the "Payment Wizard" functionality (Menu "Banking --> Payment Wizard") and the "manual outgoing payments" creation (Menu "Banking --> Outgoing Payment --> Outgoing payment").
Version : 2007A SP00 PL38
Description of requirements :
In the current version of SBO ( 2007 SP00 PL38 ) when we create an outgoing payment with bank transfer as Payment method (manually or with the Payment Wizard), it is not possible to specify the Supplier "bank account" to use. The default bank account defined in the Supplier Master Data is automatically chosen by SAP B1.
We can create several bank accounts in the Supplier Master Data, but it is not possible to use the non-default ones in the outgoing payments creation.
Business needs:
Some of our SAP B1 customers get suppliers with several bank accounts. They use the "Payment Engine" to generate "bank file" for bank transfer and forward the bank files to their banks and require to choose the correct bank accounts to use to pay each documents.
The aim of the Payment Wizard is to help the SAP B1 customers to create regularly and automatically some outgoing payments.
And when the Payment Wizard is run with several documents to pay on different supplier bank accounts for (for example AP Invoices to pay on different bank accounts for the same supplier), it does not work correctly because the bank account which is used in the "bank file" created at Step 9 of the "Payment Wizard" (by clicking the "Bank File" button added by the Payment Engine) is the default one.
Current Workaround:
To generate correct bank files, the SAP B1 user has to run several times the "Payment Wizard", modifying each times the default bank account of the supplier. The result is the creation of several "bank files"...
and an important loss of time !
Proposed solution:
In the Payment Wizard, in Step 6/9, add a column which allow the user choosing the bank account (for example in a "choose from list" which display the existing bank accounts of the corresponding supplier) for each document to pay.
The supplier default account is proposed by default but can be changed for each line.
This column should be deactivated for other payment method than "Bank Transfer".
This functionality should be interesting for manual outgoing payment because it should allow choosing the supplier bank account to pay on and recording this bank account information in the manual outgoing payment. In that way it will be possible to print the bak account information on the printed forms (PLD) we can print and send by fax to the bank.
Kind Regards.
Grégory

Hi Grégory
I have encountered the same problem: The payment wizard always suggests the supplier's standard bank account, irrespective of the information entered on the logistics tab in the pay to field of the AP Invoice. Unlike the solution you proposed (choose from list), I would prefer the payment wizard to automatically select the bank entered in the pay to field of the AP Invoice.
Best regards
Christiane

Payment Wizard without payments (on account)

Hello,
maybe I misunderstood the payment wizard but if I add manually a payment (incoming/outgoing), why does it then appear in the recommendation report (as the payment is already DONE)?
I don't want to transfer the payment on account back to my supplier/customer and he won't do it either...
If on the BP master data the checkbox "Single Payment" is activated, the situation becomes even worse as I cannot combine incoming and outgoing payments on account with invoices anymore, which would at least give it a small sense...
The SAP Support stated that this is intended as it is and I wonder why? In SBO 2005A payments on account were not listed in the recommendation report and my customer is understandably confused right now...
So, if there is any possibility to get the behaviour from 2005A in 2007A, I'd like to know it
Kind regards,
Sebastian Kleiner

Hi Sebastian,
in 2007 the manually executed payment on account appears in the recommendation report as long as it is not reconciled. In case of an outgoing payment on account, the amount will be displayed negative in the report & may be included in the payment run to reduce the total payment amount by that sum. In essence, the application states in the recommendation report that there are outstanding invoices to be paid, but also unreconciled payments. It thus gives the user the opportunity to avoid overpayment.
The functionality of 'Single Payment' defines that the Payment Wizard is to create a separate payment for each open invoice. As long as an invoice is not reconciled, it is open, regardless of whether there is a matching payment on account or not.
Please consider using the internal reconciliation functionality to match payments on account with the appropriate invoice(s) or include the payment on account in the payment wizard run to adjust the payment. When using 'single payment', you need to use the internal reconciliation since then negative journals are not included in the payment run, you will find these transactions in the 'Non-included Transaction Report' at the recommendation stage of the payment wizard.
All the best,
Kerstin

Payment of foreign currency invoice in local currency

Hi all,
PO is created in USD and thereafter GR and IR done. The payment of this invoice has to be done in
local currency RUB. In invoice the currency field is not open for change and hence payment in
local currency cannot be generated. How to make payment of USD invoice in RUB ?
Thanks in advance.

Sadashivan

Dear Experts,
We have a strange case, and requesting the SAP behaviour for this case.
The document (Invoice posted) in "SDR" special Dinar Rate (not standard currency), and the Local Currency is BHD - Bahraini Dinar, and wanted to pay in Foreign Currency in "EUR". mainted the payment currency in the document.
As far as I know system will check exchange rates for conversion from SDR - BHD and then BHD - EUR, so maintaining these two combinations are enough.
But strangely I am getting error while processing F110 automatic payment program, system is giving error "Enter the Rate EUR/SDR rate type M for 04.08.2010 in the system". Message No. SG - 105
I am facing this error after we upgraded to ECC 6.0 from ERP 4.7 in March 2010. Paying in EUR is rarely happens.
Awaiting your kind reply.

Francis

Outgoing payment with Payment Wizard with Bank Transfer

Hello to everyone !!!
I'm Configuring a Company who want to use the 'Payment Wizard' to make Outgoing Bank Transfers payments with it.
I did the configuration in 'Payment Methods' of Outgoing Bank Transfers, where I chose a File Format from the list (Even I don't know which one should I choose) and I also chose de 'House bank', bank and account where the Outgoing Bank Transfers will come.
At the time when I did the payment wizard it suggest me to make an outgoing payment of my due A/P invoice very well. The problem is in the next step (STEP 7) when i run the execution and in STEP 8 it says:
0 Payments were added
0 Bank transfers were added
So, It did not make any bank transfer Transaction!!!! =S
Someone knows what i'm missing from the configuration???
Someone knows if this is a bug??
Thanks for your Help!!!!

This also applies to Credit Memos (and to manual Journal ENtries in 2007 A). Click on "Non-included Trans." to identify any troublesome transactions - Step 6.
g) Select to either "Save the selection criteria", or "Mark as recommended" to process at a later point in time or select to "Execute" immediately - Step 7.
h) In Step 8, you are given the Payments Run Summary.
i) If you selected to execute the payment run, in Step 9 the Document and Report Printing options will be displayed. To generate the bankfile and any associated documents relevant to your localisation, click on the radiobutton "Bankfile".
j) A "Browse for Folder" window will pop up where the destination directory of the output files must be selected. Once a folder was selected and "OK" was clicked, the payment engine will take the data out of Business One and create the defined files.
k) Once the procedure has completed, an information system message will be displayed: Payment Engine run was successful"
8. Go to the destination folder and check the logfile and the bank file(s).

Step 3 in payment wizard does not populate any BP's?

Hi all-
We have a customer that is trying to run the payment wizard for outgoing payments. In Step 3 the payment wizard does not populate any BP's? We think we have all of the settings correct. Is there anything 'not obvious' that might prevent the vendors from populating on this step 3 (we choose all vendor groups and vendors DO have balances).
Any ideas as to where to look or what to check would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Pat.

Hi Pat,
the most common reason for this is that no payment run defaults were selected. As for the definitions necessary, please have a look at note 725786 - Definitions necessary for the payment wizard.
All the best,
