Error in NWBC when creating (house) bank account

[Former Member]

We are newly implementing Simple Finance with HANA (release 7.4). With this version, it is no longer possible to create house banks and bank accounts with trans. FI12 (we are getting message FINH002 - use trans. FI12_HBANK for house banks and NWBC for accounts).

Creating house banks with FI12_HBANK is easy (like the old FI12), but I have an issue with NWBC. The long text to msg FINH002 suggests to choose role SAP_SFIN_CASH_MANAGER or SAP_FI_BL_BANK_MASTER_DATA. However, for both of them, if I push "Manage bank accounts" and "New bank account", then I am getting an error "Cannot find configuration for Bank Acount Management" (FCLM_BAM_MAINT 057).

Can you please suggest what config needs to be done to be able to create (house) bank accounts?

We are just starting a prototype in a sandbox system, so it is possible that some necessary business functions are not active (e.g., we know we are still missing the  three basic ones for Simple Finance - FIN_GL_CI_1 to 3). Can this be the reason? Or is anything else missing?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Jan,

Please complete the settings in the following area and then try to manage bank accounts

SPRO > Financial Supply Chain Management > Cash and Liquidity Management > Bank Account Management > Basic Settings

Just play with settings and check manage bank accounts.

Hello Murali,

We are also newly implementing a pilot Simple Finance with HANA
(release 7.4). And facing same issue that reported in this chain, no longer
possible to create house banks and bank accounts with trans. FI12 (we are
getting message FINH002 - use trans. FI12_HBANK for house banks and NWBC for
accounts).

Based on all answer replay here,could that be the summary of action to follow?

1. Lunch NWBC

2. Have set up following SAP roles for users, SAP_SFIN_CASH_MANAGER and  SAP_FI_BL_BANK_MASTER_DATA

3. Configure SPRO > Financial Supply Chain Management > Cash and Liquidity Management> Bank Account Management > Basic Settings.

In here where you Define Number Ranges for Bank Account Technical IDs, should this follow any range
based on existing Account ID numbering?. In our design Account ID follow AAA0
to ZZZ9, but we included here for technical range 01  From Nº 0000000001 to 0000009999. Now we see status up to 8000 (we don’t have so many..) but still cannot see our bank accounts through FI12_HBANK. Are we missing something? Or how this setting works?

We already run after migration activity on Migrate House Bank Accounts, but we are not able to see our bank account through transaction, we can see them on tables. But how can we make work FI12_HBANK accordingly to use it as FI12?

Really appreciate any help on this matters.

Thanks a lot.

Bárbara.

Hello,

I have the same issue in a new install of SAP Simple Finance On Prem 1503. Using the SAP GUI and transaction FI12_HBANK it is not possible to add accounts to the newly created house bank. In the FI12 transaction I would have the choice to add accounts from the side menu, however this is not the case in FI12_HBANK.

Does anyone know how we are supposed to add accounts to house banks using FI12_HBANK?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Barbara,

After activating a bunch of services and getting NWBC up and running I was able to find the account maintenance.

In the Edit Bank Master Data Role in NWBC you select Bank Accounts/Manage Bank Accounts. You will need the user role SAP_FI_BL_BANK_MASTER_DATA.

You will then see a list of your active accounts. Select one to see the detail.

Click the Connectivity Path button to see the house bank data.

Using this method I was able to maintain the house bank account data here and the House Bank data in FI12_HBANK.

I am having another issue in the bank determination config where I am receiving an error that the accounts are missing form T012 when they are showing there in SE16 (granted it is just a compatibility view). I will be raising an OSS ticket as I cannot get past that point at the moment.

I hope the above screens help.

Hi John,

I am facing an HTTP  issue while creating the Bank account through Manage Bank account in SAP NetWeaver Busines Client.

I have done all the Pre-requisite configuration, also have necessary roles assigned but still not able to fix the issue.

Hello Adnan,

I guess FF7A and FF7B are replaced with Fiori Apps.

Cash Position:

As of SPS01, the Cash Position Details app is enhanced with new Design Studio UI, which provides better multi-dimensional and hierarchical analysis capability.

Liquidity Forecast:

As of SPS01, the Liquidity Forecast app is enhanced. Please refer to the limitations mentioned in the "Release Scope" -> "Liquidity Management" section.

Please refer to note# 2149337 for more information.

Thanks

Hi everyone....

In our current setting, for every bank account, we have 3 G/L accounts in SAP - the main bank account, the check deposit and the check payment accounts.

We have configured up to a single GL account (main bank account) assigned to a particular bank account number. The system does not allow to create another Central house bank account to assign the remaining G/L accounts.

How can we go about this?

Your help is most appreciated.

[former_member380737]

Not an easy setting: Here is step by step process:

Have these roles assigned to your your ID first:

SAP_SFIN_CASH_MANAGER

SAP_FI_BL_BANK_MASTER_DATA

Go to NWBC using command bar of your SAP main menu screen. It will take you to iexplorer in portal view

Create a new Bank account there again. Even if you have already created a House bank in SAP

Double click the bank account you created above & go to connectivity path tab. refer screenshot below:

Click on Add and fill in the account ID and GL details

Defining House Bank Accounts

The house bank accounts of your company are the bank accounts that your company owns. You can use them to process payment transactions. Each house bank account is linked to a bank account in bank account master data via a connectivity path. To create a house bank account, proceed as follows:

1. In the Web Dynpro application for Bank Account Management or Bank Account Management Lite, open a bank account.
2. On the Connectivity Path tab, create an entry with the following values:
   • ID Category: specify Central System: House Bank Account
   • House Bank
   • Valid From and Valid To
3. Below the table, on the House Bank Account Data tab, specify a unique ID for this house bank account.The account ID can be alphanumeric. The length limit is 5 digits.
4. Specify the G/L Account to which payment transactions should be posted to.

Sorry Raghu,

I am currently on 1503 implementation and have not had a chance to work with 1511 yet so I am afraid I cannot help here. Hopefully someone reading this chain can help you figure it out.

If I do get some time on 1511 in the near future I will let you know if I find anything.

Hi John,

We are also  having  problem with House Bank Creation on 1503.

We are unable to assign Account ID’s to House Bank with FI12_HBANK in Simple Finance (SFIN).

This is because the dialog box through which the Account ID is assigned to House Bank is not visible in NWBC

We have already taken the following steps

:

1.      Activation of following business functions:

     FIN_FSCM_CLM

     FIN_FSCM_INTEGRATION

     2.     Configuration of Bank Account Management Basic Settings in FSCM Cash and Liquidity      Management (except the settings related to EBS/MBS and Bank Communications Management      such as settings for Approvals, Signatures, Workflows etc ).

Any idea how to resolve this ?

Thanks in  advance

Kumar,

Hope you are not able to see Connectivity Path to assign Account ID in NWBC.

Have you tried activating the following WF: WS74300043 and the below rules

74300006 FCLM_CASHMGR

74300007 FCLM_CASHOPER

74300008 FCLM_CASHSYSCOLL

Please try and let me know
