Symptom
It's needed to find a Code Page that supports generating payment files with Thai characters to be encoded in TIS-620 (Thai Industrial Standard 620-2533).
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.
Reproducing the Issue
- Access the app Manage Payment Media - App ID F1868.
- Enter relevant payment details, click Go.
- Select payment line and click on Download button.
- Download the Payment Media File encoded in TIS-620 or any non-Unicode and observe the downloaded file contains character errors.
Cause
The code page of Payment Medium Format needs to be directed to correct Unicode, check PMW formats: Codepage and Preconfigured Code Pages.
Code page is the name that SAP uses instead of character encoding.
Resolution
It's recommended to switch to Code Page 8000 to map directly to TIS-620 encoding.
Code Page can be updated for the Payment Medium Format via configuration activity Create Payment Medium Formats (102569).
