Hello,

There is no such mechanism to send payment advice to bank. Normally this file is submitted through a third party softwares like ALBACS etc. (in GB)

However, you can send the payment advice to the vendor.

Copy the SAMPLE_PROCESS_00002040 function module to ZSAMPLE_PROCESS_00002040 and make the required changes within the FM.

Please refer:

SAP NOTE 1033893, 836169.

Also see Note 521587.

We are able to trigger the email:

We have done the following:

Go to transaction code FIBF

Settings ==> Process Modules ==> of an SAP Application

Process = 00002040

Ctr: Kept Blank

Appl: Kept Blank

Function Module: ZSAMPLE_PROCESS_00002040

Hope this should work.

SAP has provided some of the DME structures for different countries. like GB_BACS for GB etc.

If your client is not part of those structure, probably you are required to create your own structure. It also depends on the bank of your client. They may want the file in a different format. Therefore, you need to first talk to the bank and get a sample file in which they need the format.

You can create the DME structure by using transaction code DMEE - Tree Type is PAYM.

You can create the DME structure as a flat file or XML file based on the requirement of your client (bank).

You can also copy the standard structure to Z structure and modify it according to your requirements.

Please also make sure that you have made settings in OBPM1, OBPM2, OBPM3 and OBPM4 (More importantly you should maintain the path where it needs to be downloaded)

Complete your FBZP settings - Importantly payment methods in country, select your DME structure.

Take help of basis consultant in order to create the directories. You can see the directories in AL11.

If there are no directory path maintained in OBPM4, then the file gets saved to temporary directory in AL11.

If you are using DME structure, then forget the classic payment medium.

1. First ask the bank for the format, file type etc. Ask bank for any document available.

2. The see for that country if SAP has provided any standard DME structure (Transaction Code DMEE - Tree Type PAYM)

3. If this is not sufficient, then copy the standard DME strcutre and modify it accordingly to your requirement.

4. Assign this DME structure in FBZP - Payment Methods in country. * Use payment medium workbench

5. Check with your basis whether any secured folders are created in AL11 (where the output file needs to get generated) - If not ask them to create.

6.Check your settings in OBPM1 / OBPM2 / OBPM3 / OBPM4 - (In OBPM4 make sure you have given the secured folder path and file name for your variant)

7. Run F110 - Check you have maintained your variant details properly for program RFFOAVIS_FPAYM

If you maintain all these steps correct, hope your DME file should get generated.

Regards,
