Symptom
When generating a payment proposal in app "Manage Automatic Payments", the system does not select the currency-specific G/L account of the account symbol defined in configuration activity "Make Global Settings for Electronic Bank Statement" (ID: 101024).
Instead, the system applies the default G/L account (no currency specified one).

Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Create a payment proposal for the relevant company code and payment method.
- Enable the extended log for the payment run.
- Review the log and account determination: observe that the system ignores the currency-specific entry (CNY G/L account 11000991 for account symbol TRANSF) and uses the default currency '+' entry (+++++++020) instead.
Cause
The currency was not specific maintained in configuration "Set Up Bank Determination for Payment Transactions" (ID: 101045) for the house bank.
Automatic payment G/L account selection logic: The system first checks the currency maintained in the configuration "Set Up Bank Determination for Payment Transactions" (101045) and, based on that selection, locates the corresponding G/L account in "Make Global Settings for Electronic Bank Statement" (101024).
If the selected row in 101045 has the blank (empty) currency, then in 101024 the system selects the row where the currency is '+'.
If the selected row in 101045 has the currency CNY, then in 101024 the system selects the row with the currency CNY.
Resolution
Maintain the currency-specific entry in configuration "Set Up Bank Determination for Payment Transactions" (ID: 101045) for the house bank.
