3115974 - Incorrect National Bank Code Derived in Payment File Based in Custom Payment File Structure

Symptom

The National Bank Code (NBC) derived in a payment file created based on a Custom Payment File Structure is not the one you expect.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Liquidity Management work center.
  2. Go to the Outbound Files view.
  3. Open the respective file.
  4. Click View All.
  5. Open the file (for example, a .txt file).
  6. Notice that on the field you've set up with data source as National Bank Code of Payer/Payee in respective custom payment file structure the National Bank Code derived is not the expected one.

Cause

There are two or more National Bank Codes set up for the respective supplier's bank in Bank Directory Entry and none of them are flagged as Identification via National Bank Code.

In this case, system is deriving one of the NBCs configured while you you expect other.

Resolution

When there are multiple NBCs defined in respective Bank Directory Entry, you should flag the one you want to be derived in payment files as both Default and Identification via National Bank Code.
