Payment Wizard - Export Bank File

Hi Experts,
I have been testing the Payment Wizard for my client to use when they have a batch of Suppliers to pay.
But I seem to have a problem in Step 9 of 9.
The payment wizard creates the payments but the Export Bank file tab does not want to export to any location that I select.
Am I doing something wrong or leaving something out?
My goal is to create and post all the payments in SAP, and then export that payment batch that I just executed in order to import into another application called Cashfocus.
Thank you.
Regards,

Hi
We have worked extensively with the Payment Engine and there are a number of things that may caused this problem. Can you confirm as to whether a path is selected on step 9 and that write access is granted to this path/folder.
Regards
Earl

Exporting bank file by payment wizard

Hi Guys,
Another question about the payment wizard for exporting bank file. After pulling the bank file from payment wizard, I found the exported file is an empty file. There is no content in the bank file. The localization of our system is China. I am trying to use SAPBPATIB_MT940 format, which is Austrian, to export the file. My guess is the format only works for Austrian localization. Is that true?
Best Regards,
Leon

Hi Leon,
payment engine is not supported for China, so even if you set bank file formats, you won't be able to create bankfiles.
Your local SAP field office should be in a position to advise you on alternative possibilities.
All the best,
Kerstin

Exporting Bank Files

I am a system administrator in Windows and I am able to export my Bank File via the Payment Wizard in 2007A Patch 15 (uses BIS I beleive). I have a user who is a Super User in SAP, but a normal user in Windows. They have full read, write and delete to their B1_SHR
Please don not tell me that all SAP Users must be setup as Administartors in Windows to use?

SAP Business One Integration Platform creates the following folders under the ../SAP Business
One Server/B1_SHR/B1is/apps/PaymentEngine folder: BankFiles, BankStatements, and FormatProjects.
Due to security considerations, only the SYSTEM and Administrator accounts have full control
over these folders by default.
To enable the Payment Engine for additional user accounts, you must manually grant them
permissions to these folders.

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).
All the best,

Bank Payment Wizard file format

Hello Experts,
I have requirement of sending bank payment wizard file to bank for payment in ISO 20022 XML format.
- which format is generated by default by SAP B1 and
- how to convert the output of payment wizard in ISO 20022 XML format.
Is there way to change the output.
Thanks
Deepak

Hi,
Plz check following links,

DRQ : Bank File Due Date

SCENARIO
In B1 its not possible to create a bank files (run a payment wizard) for a several Due Dates in a one day. B1 will enter a current date as a due date for the bank file. This is major issue for many customers.
Example
Current date is 03.04.2008. AP Invoice Due Date is 10.4.2008. Same date will be entered in payment wizard step 2/9 in a field posting date.
AP Invoice 100 should be paid from the bank on 10.4.2008
The result of this run in B1 Outgoing Payments:
=> In a bank file the due date for whole payment is a system date -> INCORRECT
The date should be a posting date from step 2/9. This case the AP Invoices are being paid from the bank on 03.04.2008 not according an AP invoice Due Date 10.4.2008
E.g.
1. If person who is responsible for payments are going to leave on vacation. There have to be possibility to create a bank files ,on his/her last working day before vacation, all known payments and send them in bank before hand. Invoices have to be paid on due date, NOT BEFOREHAND.
2. Optimizing company's cash flow AP-invoices should be paid on due date, NOT BEFOREHAND
3. If company have lots of an AP-invoices, it's more user friendly and efficient if one payment run can handle payments with different due dates --> create on payment file which contains different due dates.

Overdraft Facility - Payment wizard

Hi All,
When using the payment wizard, the bank GL account balance reflects as to how much is available to pay. How does one show the bank balance INCLUDING an overdraft facility as the amount available in the bank account for outgoing payments? e.g.
GL bank account balance = 750,000. overdraft facility = 250,000. available amount to pay = 1,000,000
I know that you can manually over-ride the value available within the wizard.
I would prefer some functionality from a control perspective so that the overdraft facility is not exceeded when doing the payments.
Thanks in advance.
Kiran

Hi Kiran,
A user query alert would be a solution for you. Or an SP to stop such overdraft if you need.
Thanks,
Gordon

Problem with creation of Bank Transfer file by standard Payment Wizard

Hello,
I am currently trying to check if the file created by the Payment Wizard is gathering the appropriate data for Bank transfer payment.
All the steps of the wizard are undergone successfully. However, no file is created or updated.
Do you have an idea of what would be related to this problem and what could be the solution ? All the bank and accounts information are in the database, so basically nothing is missing as for data.
Is the path for the file location important ?
Do I have to create the file before and with an appropriate format ?
Thank you for your help !
Francois

Hi,
First of all you need to verify that you have allocated a bank file format for the particular payment method. I assume that you have since you are able to successfully generate the payment run. Once you reach the last step which is step 9 of 9 where you are able to print reports carefully observe and locate the bank file icon to the bottom right of the screen. Once you click on that icon you will be able to select the output file location and need to complete the test run successfully whereafter you need to execute the production run. Once the production run has been completed the output file will have been generated.

Andre

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 limits outgoing payments to balance in G/L bank account

SAP B1 2005A Banking, Payment Wizard, Recommendation Report limits recommended invoices for payment to the balance in the G/L bank account. Is there a way to get around this limitation?
It would be much better for our company if the Recommendation Report listed ALL invoices that meet the parameters we specified (Vendor # range, Vendor Group, Due Date, etc) then allow us to de-select individual invoices until the total of payments is below the G/L bank account balance.

Sorry for the hurry answer without check. The message on the screen clear says: Non-Included trans. displays rows for which a payment cannot be generated.
This is system behavior. I don't think there are any existing options other than try SDK.
Thanks,
Gordon

Payment wizard -No matching records found 'Bank Codes' (ODSC) (ODBC -2028)

Hello dear experts,
I'm trying to execute the payment wizard to receive a payment from a vendor
The invoice appears in the recommendation report but the payment isn't added when i execute the payment run.
It appears after that in the Non-Included transactions with the following error message :
No matching records found 'Bank Codes' (ODSC) (ODBC -2028)
Can you solve this problem?
Thank you

Hi,
Could you find the followings regarding bank information and check if all the settings are correctly defined
1. Define payment run defaults > Payment method
   Check payment method details from Administration > Setup > Banking
   > Define payment methods
   Payment method which is linked to BP > payment means - Bank transfer
2. ODSC table, Bank Code (just to check bank codes are stored well)
3. BP master data > Payment terms > BP Bank accounts
4. BP master data > Payment system > House bank.
Also Check Note no [971105|https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=0000971105].

Payment Wizard - Bank transfer problem

Hi,
In the Payment Wizard if I select the outgoing payment and payment means as check in step 2, The recommendation report in step in step 6 shows the Business Partners and transactions but if I select Bank Transfer as payment means then no Business Partner is displayed in the recommendation report, however the outgoing amount and total value are displayed at the bottom.
The SAP Version is SAP Business One 8.8 SP:00 PL:08
Any know issues in this version or am I missing some this. Any suggestions will be helpful.
Thanks in Advance.

Mohan

Hi Mohan,
PL08 is a little bit old. Try under new PL to see.

Payment wizard, Invoice devided on more than one bank

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
our costumer has the following problem:
By using the payment wizard for creditors you have the possibility to choose banks from which the payments will be transferred. This happens in step 5 of 9.
You can insert the desired amount of every bank and choose the order of the banks by using arrows:
For Example: The costumer has a credit of 10.000 u20AC from bank1, from bank2 he has a credit of 20.000 u20AC, on bank3 there is no credit and on bank4 he has 1.000.000 u20AC credit.
The costumer wants to use now the credit from bank1 and 3 first now, of course not the bank2 and for the rest of the payment he wants to use the bank4.
To transact like this the relevant amounts are included and the sequence bank1-bank2-bank4 is chosen (bank3 is not ticked). In step 6 of 9 the open items of all deliverers will be displayed.
The payment method for every invoice was already calculated by Business One. In this step some invoices are excluded which should not be payed because of different reasons.
Now the problem occurs: After excluding some invoices there is no new calculation which invoice should be payed from which bank. That means that if the invoices which were put out of the system occasionally had the payment terms bank1 or 2 the payment of this two banks (which was 10.000 u20AC and 20.000 u20AC) is now reduced. The amount of the reduction is the amount of the excluded invoices.
Our costumer wants following:
The distribution of the payment should be only done when the open items were controlled ( maybe some invoices are excluded here).
If you want to use the credits on the banks completely you only have the possibility to create a payment separate for all banks.
That means triple effort for this example.
Thanks for your help
Kind Regards
