Welcome to the Map Payment Format Data video guide. In this series of videos, I will try to explain how the application works and how to use it.
The app enables you to manage and modify the base SAP payment file formats to meet the requirements of your financial institution. You can model an externally defined bank format, and this allows you to send payment data in the required format.
1811 release of SAP S/4HANA Cloud introduced a new app, Create Payment Medium Formats which allows the user to create new Payment Medium Formats. Since Manage Payment Formats Fiori app is no longer used to create new formats but is used to create Payment Format Mappings, it has been renamed to Map Payment Format Data and is another part of the Payment Medium Format to Payment File process.
Map Payment Format Data application can be run by opening the Manage Your Solution tile, clicking on the Configure Your Solution button, searching for 'Map Payment Format Data' and clicking the Configure button in the Configuration Steps tab. To be able to run the application your user must have a SAP_BR_BPC_EXPERT business role assigned.
Part one
The configuration of the app and Format Mapping Properties
In the first part, you will learn the process of configuration, which parts the main screens of the app are composed of and what options regarding the main properties of the mapping can you define.
The second part explains the types of nodes used in the application, in which case each node is used and what fields can you use within the basic node sections.
This Payment Fomat Data feature, can it be used to map Bank Statement files or only for payment media generation in the process to send files to Bank institutions ?
currently the app is named Map Format Data for Payments where just outgoing direction is covered. But we also working on inbound direction which is integrated for example to bank statement processing. App name is Map Format Data for Incoming Files from Banks. We currently cover just flat files and delivered mapping by SAP is MT940 format.
