interpretation algorithm 029 (Payment Order Number) - not clearing automatically

Hello all,

We have encountered an interesting issue related to Electronic Bank Statements (EBS) and automatic clearing in SAP. Supplier payments are not cleared automatically and instead end up in the APP: Reprocess Bank Statement Items.

The interpretation algorithm in use is 029 (Payment Order Number). When the reference in the memo line is not adjusted within the Reprocess Bank Statement Items app, the system allocates two invoices: one correct and one incorrect, with the incorrect invoice even belonging to another company code.

However, if we adjust the memo line and only retain the payment order before reallocating the open item, only the correct invoice is assigned.

Detailed Scenario:

  • In the memo line, the amount of the correct invoice (869 SEK) is included.
  • The incorrect invoice (belonging to a different company code) has "869" as the payment order.
  • It appears the system interprets the amount (869 SEK) as the payment order, which doesn’t align logically, as the incorrect invoice belongs to another company code.

Invoices:

  • Correct Invoice: Amount = 869 SEK, Payment Order = 688
  • Incorrect Invoice (Different Company Code): Amount = 35,037.52 SEK, Payment Order = 869

This issue requires manual adjustment of the memo line to correctly allocate items, which can be time-consuming and inefficient in the long run, particularly if such cases occur frequently.

Additionally, this issue seems somewhat related to SAP Note 3413102 - Algorithm 029 Payment Order (PYORD) for Several Accounts, but there are differences in the scenarios, and the note does not apply to SAP Cloud.

Has anyone encountered a similar issue with interpretation algorithm 029?

I would greatly appreciate any insights or solutions.
