3687317 - SUN ID Not Picked Correctly for Some Company Codes During BACS Payment File Generation

When generating BACS payment files, the SUN ID is correctly picked for one company code but not for another although,

• Both company codes share the same payment method.
• Both use the same payment format.
• Configuration appears identical.
• Mapping via the Map Format Data app is the same.

The resulting payment file for one company code contains the correct SUN ID, while the other payment file shows that the SUN ID is missing.

The issue occurs due to the configuration in SSCUI 103132 – “Define User Number at Bank in Norway, United Kingdom, and Ireland, the system derives the country from the House Bank, not from the Company Code.

For Example: In below image

• Company Code GI01 → Country = GI.
• House Bank → Country = UK.

Without a configuration entry for the combination of GI01/GI, the SUN ID is not determined correctly

To ensure the correct User Number / SUN ID is determined, maintain the required entry in the configuration activity "Define User Number at Bank in Norway, United Kingdom, and Ireland" SSCUI ID - 103132

Steps:

1. Open the configuration activity "Define User Number at Bank in Norway, United Kingdom, and Ireland" (SSCUI- 103132).
2. Maintain the required combination for the affected company code:
   • Company Code: GI01.
   • Country: GB (derived from House Bank).
   • SUN ID: Enter the correct SUN ID provided by the bank.
3. Save the changes.
4. Regenerate the payment file.

The system will now pick up the appropriate User Number / SUN ID.
