F110 Create payment file while sending IDOC

[former_member293658]

Hello

We have a requirement whereby we need to send a payment file in a specific format (1 header record with information, multiple detail records for each vendor payment) to the bank when running F110. We already use RFFOEDI1 to generate the payments in IDOC format which get sent to the bank. We now have to additionally send the paymnet file which will contain the details of the paymnet run in  specific format.

Can you advise is there anyway to achieve this while using RFFOEDI1 program?

We would like to avoid changing to use for example the Payment Medium Workbench to meet the requirement if possible.

Thanks for any advice you can offer.

You need to create a bespoke program then which needs to be given in F110 variant.

In F110, printout/data medium tab, you will have lists,

there, please assign your program, then created your variant,

within that variant give file path which is created in AL11.

Ask your Basis team to create a folder in AL11 and map it to FTP file path / folder

Only give access to limited people to that folder.

Hi Ravi

So in the F110 PrintoutData Medium tab I have the RFFOEDI1 there currently. We really need that to stay. Are you saying I can specify a 2nd bespoke Z program under for example the LISTS section (or under the Form Printing section?)  of the Printout/Data Medium tab so that it would then generate a payment file if we have that Z program coded to do so?

Thank you.

Hi Michael,

You are right, you can add another program in LISTS (Not in Form Printing Section)

You cannot add any further program in Form printing section.

Please ask your ABAPer to create a new program and add that one in LISTS, then create a variant, within the variant give the file path, the file would be generated into that path, when the automatic payment program is executed.

Kind Regards,

Ravi

Hi Ravi

OK we will give this a try and see the outcome. It sounds like a good possibility. I will let you know the outcome once we had time to work it through.

Thank you very much.
