3672167 - Payment Program Error: "No payment media were created because of manual approval needed."

When creating a payment media from a payment run, the system does not generate the payment media. The following error occurs:

• No payment media were created because of manual approval needed.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.

Missing configuration.

• Using Manage Bank Account app; In the Payment Approver tab/section of the relevant House Bank Account, ensure there are no approvers defined, especially if the customer intends for payments to be auto-approved or only approved via a separate flexible workflow.
• If a workflow is intentionally active (Scope Item J78/J77), the next action is for the designated user to approve the payment batch in the Approve Bank Payments Fiori app. Once approved, the payment media generation will complete.
• If no flexible workflow is set up, the check on the Manage Bank Accounts app is critical to ensure no unintended approvals are required at the bank master data level.
