Can I Refund in FPY1 without Repayment Request?

Can I Refund in FPY1 without Repayment Request?

Generally we need to create Repayment Request after updating payment method on creat item, then we run FPY1 for Repayment Request. Is there any alternate method to refund? without creating Repayment Request.

I researched and tried but FPY1 does not pick the Credit Open items in my system, may be specific configuration causing that. But with Repayment Request it is possible.

Hi Pankaj,

Repayment request in only one of the ways through which you can generate a refund in SAP.

Its not mandatory to create a repayment request for generaating a refund entry, until and unless you have enhancements in place, which creates a PS whenever, you update the Payment method against a credit line item.

Check the Document change events, say,event 1118,1120, where I think in your System, there are enhancements in place to create a PS.

Hope it helps.

Thanks,

Amlan

Thank You Amlan,

But either way have to create either PS or Repayment Request? Cant we skip that?

Because sometime in my current system PS does not work, it shows "no item" selected.

Hi Pankaj,

Say suppose, you have an open Credit item sitting in the account.

Go to FPE2 and maintain the payment method as a Check refund payment method and press save.

Now Execute FPY1, with Open items ticked and payment method as Check refund.

So, there will be an outgoing payment document posted in SAP.

This is the simplest way of generating a refund by not going through the PS or the repayment request way.

Hope it helps..

Thanks,

Amlan

Hello Pankaj,

You can issue the refund by marking the payment method via t code FPE2 . This is the minimum you will need to do.

May I ask what is the business requirement and why the users don't want to create repayment request ?
