Regarding the FBPM T. Code

[#1]

Dear All,

Could you please provide me the answers.

Is this FBPM standard transaction code applicable for usage by any division and country?

when was this transaction made available to use?

what is the requirement to be fulfilled if this transaction needs to be used by Singapore plant?

currently a customized transaction ZF01 is used, can we do away with ZF01 and use FBPM and what is the impact in doing so?

The user is asking this information. So could you please let me know some answer

Regards

Mr>Rao

Hi, Navuluri.

Thank you for contacting SAP Active Global Support.

Transaction FBPM calls report SAPFPAYM.

Starting from 4.6C, SAP offers the possibility to create a specific

format using a new tool named DME engine.

Using this report, SAPFPAYM, you are able to create your file according

to your specific format.

First of all, about PMW:

The payment medium workbench was created to replace the classic payment

medium programs. The main benefits of using the PMW are as follows:

- It separates format specific parts from the more complex general part;- You can easily create new formats with customising and mapping

functions or mapping with the DME engine.

The standard DME formats that are supported by SAP are listed in the

following notes:

524520 PMW - Information on Payment Medium Workbench

545340 FAQ: Payment run F110

Documentation concerning customizing:

To create outgoing payment files, you can use Payment Medium Workbench

(PMW). Basic information how to use it, which customizing set up is

necessary you can find in note 524520. There is also documentation

in transaction FBPM for creating DME files with PMW.

I hope this information can help You.
