DME for BCM Bank Communication Management

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am going to implement BCM (Bank Communication management) as per BCM documentation ist sugesting SEP_CT or MT101.102 Swift formats etc..

And our HSBC Bank is suggesting we have to use: file format "ifile", (PP/ACH),

Can you please help which program I have to assign to payment method?

Or

I have to create new DME for u201Cifileu201D

Thanks in advance,

Hi ,

Based on the requirement mentioned , kindly confirm whether the DME file is being generated by means of classic paymenrt medium or Payment medium workbench or using DMEE engine since the requirment u have mentioned about ACH format which can generated by the above mentioned method for example DMEE by classic program : RFFORIU4, by using PMW : ACH two sub set are used CTX ans CCD format are being used , i fany customization has to carried in the existing format then DMEE can be generated by DMEE engine.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply,

No, i don't want to generate DME file using classic program, My requirement is I want to generate "ifile" file using PMW (Payment Medium Workbench)

FYI, "ifile" which is also known as CSV format (PP and ACH).

I have checked but there is no standard DMEE or program is available for the same.

Can you please suggest, which standard DME I have to use or I have to configure new file as per bank format?

Thanks in advance for your valuable inputs

Hi MS,

I have used the PMW in one of my earlier project. In this the technical (ABAP) person created a XML file which was used for citibank. In this case it used to produce a file in csv format.

After that I have been using the same XML file. I can upload this file using t-code DMEE and then upload it (there is a option to upload XML file) and save it. After that I can make any change, as required by the bank (JP Morgan or any bank) and then save the new changed file. It is very easy. Let me know if you need the file.

Hi Kalyan,

Please share your experience, how you have uploaded through transaction DMEE and if possible please send me the XML file to be used for HSBC.

Abhi,

SAP's standard format SEPA_CT also produces a XML file as per ISO 20022. You can copy this SEPA_CT format to say ZACH or ZWIRE and make the changes you need.

Hi MS,

I am currently implementing BCM and ours bankers are HSBC. We are using XML & not ifile.

However, we are not integrating with SWIFTNet & Instead will be uploading through HSBCnet.

Can u please guide/share your experiences on how u guys went with your BCM implementation with HSBC on PP/ACH payments formats. Also how much time you guys took to deploy this functionality.

Any documentation on this will be really helpful.
