Hi guys,

I have a vendor XXXXXX which was pay (F110)on 06/26/2007 7:30 with payment method L(check) which picked up the open items for a amount say 100k and the doc's were cleared then again for the same vendor XXXXXX was mistakenly(had to pay other document) run in F110 on 06/26/2007 at 9:30 with payment method k(check) which picked up the same open items for the same amount 100k with same items. So basically checks were printed two times for a same vendor for the same amount but for different banks. How can this happen can any one explain me.

Thanks

Hi Mark, Siva, Murali,

Thanks for u r replies

after talking to my BA's i found that for the first payment run the user did not wait till the Posting orders in the status tab equal and had run the second payment run

for the same vendor which picked up the same open items before its got updated as cleared.

Its just a timing issue where my BA gave the user Go ahead when the first payment run was still running. The OSS note given by siva was useful. Thank you.

thinking about this further, this is something you need to take up with SAP.

The controls I spoke about are there for a reason, if you have broken them, SAP will be interested to know , and put a fix in.

Please update us with any news.

Hi

As far as I know this can happen when there are any database update errors. Can you please check SM13 for this.

Have a look at the SAP notes:

198940 F110: Update termination due to double payments

195107 Tables REGUH and REGUP should be corrected this case.

140512 Payment program: termination with F1805

Important for future runs:

Also, to avoid including duplicate entries in the files sent to the bank or create wrong checks and so on, I will recommend you to select the flag "Payment document validation" in all the variants used for the print programs. This flag will make that the system checks if the payment document is really created before including the item

in the payment file.

Hope above information helps you.

Have you checked the logs to see which actual payment was made against the cleared items.

As far as I was aware, when you run a payment run, it locks all of the transactions in it until it has been processed.

So if you ran an APP for the Vendor and then again, even if you had not executed the payment in the first payment run the second one would not show any open line items it picked up in the first.

Having two payment methods for the same type of payment, may have caused the problem, but I am guessing the payment was ACTUALLy made at the 9:30 run (later)

Hi,

It is very strange. I am hearing this first time - duplicate payment in SAP!

When the checks are printed first, did the Vendor Open Items did not get cleared? Now after the second payment, which clearing document is displayed against the invoices?

Thanks

Murali.
