Exchange rate in Electronic Bank Statement (FF_5) - BAI2 format

[former_member554378]

Our bank sends us their statements in BAI2 format. We need to be able to use their exchange rate when posting into SAP. We receive the amount in USD in the file, and then in the text fields we receive the value in EUR.

However, we don't receive the exchange rate nor the currency (we only get amounts, one number in USD and one in EUR).
I already tried to implement note 999974 and SAP never calls ZFEB_2_ADD_DMBTR, so I'm stuck there. I also noticed that FEBEP-KURSF and FEBEP-FWAER are never populated.

Questions:
1. How does the BAI2 have to be formatted in order for SAP to fill the foreign currency values in FEBEP?
2. Once I have that, what configuration needs to be done in SAP for it to read it and apply the bank's exchange rate when posting? Or at least use the amount from the statement to post into "Document Currency"?
3. Or where can I add code to do this math?

No nothing, apparently it doesn't work for BAI2 formats.
