Symptom
- In the Manage Automatic Payments app, executing a payment proposal results in the selection of open items without a specified payment method.
- These items are included in the proposal run despite a specific payment method being set in the parameters.
Environment
SAP S/4 HANA Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Navigate to the Manage Automatic Payments app.
- Select 'Define Parameter'.
- Input the Run Date and Identification.
- Fill in the required parameters.
- Specify a particular payment method in the parameters tab.
- Execute the payment proposal.
- Open items without the specified payment method are included in the proposal run.
Cause
If a payment method is not specified in the line item, the system selects one of the allowed payment methods from the business partner master record according to specified rules.
Resolution
To ensure that the payment program selects only the open items with a specific payment method set at a line-item level (BSEG-ZLSCH), use the free selection functionality in Manage Automatic Payments app.
- Go to the Manage Automatic Payments app.
- Click on 'Define Parameter'.
- Provide the Run Date and Identification.
- Fill in the required parameters.
- Enter the desired payment methods in the parameters tab.
- In the Free Selection 1, select 'Others' from the drop-down menu.
- Search for 'Payment Method'.
- Choose the value 'Payment Method (BSEG-ZLSCH)'.
- Specify the desired payment method in the values field.
- Save the parameters.
- Execute the payment proposal.
This ensures that only items with the specified payment method at the line-item level are selected in the payment run.
