Use of Payment Supplement Method Field and Grouping Key

[Former Member]

Hello,

We are trying to use Payment Method Supplement field to group payments during payment runs in F110. For Example
Vendor A - Invoice 1 - $100 (Pay Supp Field 1)

Vendor A - Invoice 2 - $200 (Pay Supp Field 1)

Vendor A - Invoice 3 - $300 (Pay Supp Field 2)

Given this is for Check payments, I would like two checks cut for $300 (grouping Invoice 1 & 2) and another $300 (for Invoice 3). I have done the necessary config in FBZP and the field shows up in vendor master and FB60. However, even when the field is populated as above (different payment supplements) - all 3 invoices are still grouped together. What can I do to check that selective grouping is enabled? Any one has experience using this field?

Additionally:

Can we use the aforementioned logic to group payments by payment supplement field for different vendors as well?

How can we use grouping key in addition to Pay Supplement - How is it different?

Lastly, How can we sort using Payment Supplement Field?

Any Advise would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Enable Payment Method: trx FBZP -> All Company Codes -> Pyt meth suppl

Define Payment Method Supplment: trx FBZP -> Menu Bar -> Edit -> Payment Methods -> Payment Method supplm.

Group by Paymenth method: trx FBZP -> Pmnt methods in company code -> Select a payment mehtod -> Bank Selection Control -> Optimize by postal code -> Set grouping by payment method supplement.

This will change the House Bank and group open items in F110.

Hope this helps.

Kind REgards

a better answer for grouping is

IMG: Financial Accounting (New) -> Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable -> Business Transactions -> Outgoing Payments -> Automatic Outgoing Payments -> Payment Method/Bank Selection for Payment Program -> Define Payment Groupings
