File Creation Number in Canada 005 DMEE Increment

[vivek_srivastava12]

Hello Experts,

For DME generation for Canada, we have copied tree type PAYM and format tree 005 into ZCA_005 and add additional fields. The new structure is assigned to payment method and it is working as expected,

We are migrating the file generation from legacy system to SAP, bank doesn't want to restart the file creation number from 0001, whereas they want us to send the next file number from the SAP file. For example, if Legacy generated the file creation number as 0294, they want the next number to be 0295 in the file generated from SAP.

In the DMEE structure we have the FM DMEE_EXIT_CA_CREATIONNO assigned, but this FM start the number from 0001, also I tried to enter the number in the OBPM4 variant but the number entered in OBPM4 is not incremented in the next run.

I referred to the below link, but I am not getting the same result as expected

Is there a way the above scenario can be achieved without creating a custom FM?
