EBS

[Former Member]

Hi ,

We need to change the EBS upload file from SWIFT format to MT101 format.

Also, the bank has provided some 1000 external transactions to be mapped in the system..but has not provided any clues as to the accounts that will hit from these external transactions..

How can i start by chaning the file format from SWIFT to MT1010...also what are the changes to be done in the file format..

The bank has provided the file format but where can i map the same file format in the system to recognize the same..

any inputs are appreciated..

thanks

I think by saying SWIFT format, you refer MT940. MT101 is also a SWIFT format. Are you sure bank corresponds the Bank statement in this format? Normally, MT101 is not used by banks to render the Bank statements since it is a Payment format. This format will be generated by the Customers and sent to the bank for processing payments from their accounts.

As for the accounts to be mapped, how will the bank suggest what account it should hit? That is upto the customer (that is you) to decide which transaction will post to which account. You'll have to do the EBS configuration for the same. SAP has default format for MT101 in DME (for processing payments). For EBS, it should be BAI or Multicash or SWIFT MT940 etc that Standard SAP supports. If in any other format, you'll have to write your own BDC to interpret the same.

Hi Thanks.

however, my problem is the configuration for F110 payment file in DMEE.

How should we get about doing the same? How should the fields be mapped in the same..

What configuration is involved and what information is required from the bank..

thanks,

Srikanth.

The following link might give you an idea of how to configure a DME.

Though SAP has got MT101 as standard, your bank might have customised it to their needs. This you'll have to ask the bank. Ask them their sample format with format specifications. They'll share that with you. Once you get that specifications, you can copy the SAP standard MT101 and do the required changes. You should be able to do that with TCode : DMEE.
