Creating DME file using SAP standard GB_BACS format

[Former Member]

Hi

I am executing transaction F110 and generating a DME file using SAP standard GB_BACS format. I have configured the bank user number on T042M as directed by SAP i.e. '....123456'. When the file is produced for transmission to the bank (Bank of Ireland) the user number displays as '....123456'. This is rejected by the bank as the format should be ' 123456'. If I change the the entry on T042M to read ' 123456' then the leading spaces are ignored on the DME and the user number displays as '123456'. Again this is rejected by the bank. Has anyone had this issue and if so do you have a way around it?

Thanks

Hello

maintain DME user IDs in Customizing for Financial Accounting, by choosing Bank Accounting ® Business Transactions ® Bill of Exchange Transactions ® Bill of Exchange Receivable ® Present Bill of Exchange Receivable at Bank ® Define DME User IDs.

In this activity, you specify the house bank, account ID, and DME identification, but leave the payment method blank.

You can only maintain one account number for each DME user ID. If you have several accounts at one bank, you must specify a different DME user ID for each account.
