SAP Note 27822 - DME in Great Britain - Changes in Release 3.0

Symptom:

Changes to data medium exchange with banks in the UK for Release 3.0

Cause and prerequisites

Release 2.2* Status:

1. After running the payment program, the selected open items are cleared against an interim bank account.

Example: Vendor A with two items (£200 and £300) is cleared against a bank sub-account (£500).

2. Program RFFOGB_T is used to generate a data medium for BACS. All payment documents from one day's processing are posted again against an interim bank account and are marked with a reference number (1234). This happens within a BTCI session that can also be created from Report RFFOGB_T.

Example: The bank sub-account with clearing for vendor A (£500) and vendor B (£1000) is cleared against another bank sub-account X (£1500).

3. The bank receives the data medium, carries out the transactions and sends an account statement.

4. The account statement is processed manually or electronically.

Example: The electronic account statement contains a cash disbursement of £1500 with the reference number 1234. The Report RFEBGB00 determines the affected bank sub-account and the £1500 item is cleared against the actual bank account.

Release 3.0* Status:

1. The selected items are cleared against an interim bank account after running the payment program.

2. Report RFFOGB_T is used to generate a data medium for BACS. The payment documents from one day's processing are not cleared though against another bank sub-account. This posting is cancelled - it is therefore not necessary to create and process the BTCI-Session!
Instead, the payment document numbers affected are grouped together and stored in the system by means of reference numbers.

Example:
Payment to vendor Adams : DM 1000,00 15.12.199x
Payment to vendor Blithe: DM 2000,00 15.12.199x

Payment to vendor Miller: DM 1100,00 17.12.199x
Payment to vendor Norman: DM 2200,00 17.12.199x

Payment to vendor Adams : DM 1110,00 19.12.199x
Payment to vendor Miller: DM 2220,00 19.12.199x

CONTRA 15.12.199x DM 3000,00 SAPBACS0000123410
CONTRA 17.12.199x DM 3300,00 SAPBACS0000123511
CONTRA 19.12.199x DM 3330,00 SAPBACS0000123612

3. The bank receives the data medium, carries out the transactions and sends an account statement. Each CONTRA record appears separately on the account statement.

4. Manual account statement:
Use Avis functionality in accordance with note 24546.

5. Electronic account statement:
The electronic account statement is processed by Report RFEBGB00. The payment documents for the transferred reference number are now read from the system and cleared against the actual bank account. Use the interpretation algorithm '19 - refence number (DTA management) and the processing type '05' for assigning external transactions to internal ones.

Example: The two internally saved payment documents are determined for the consigned refence number SAPBACS0000123511, and cleared against the amount of DM 3300,00 in the bank account.

Note
The refence number specified in the DTA management always comprises complete payment document numbers of a BACS data carrier. If debit memos or credit memos are processed within a file, or if payments to several execution days are combined, then several CONTRA master records are created. The account statement always relates to the reference number ('SAPBACS...') specified in the CONTRA record.
