3784258 - ChrgBr value shows SLEV instead of SHAR in payment medium file for SEPA payments

When a payment is recognized as SEPA (typically EUR payment that meets SEPA conditions), SAP populates <PmtInf><ChrgBr> with value SLEV. This is applied regardless of the constant value maintained as SHAR in the payment medium configuration and is required for SEPA compliance.

If the payment qualifies as a SEPA payment, the generated XML file will contain:

This behavior is expected and compliant with SEPA standards.
