You specify which payment methods are to be used for payment transactions in which country/region.

You specify which payment methods are to be used in which country/region for payment transactions. Make the following entries for the payment method:

  • Country-/region-specific determination for payment method:
  • Payment method either for incoming or outgoing payments

  • Characteristics for classifying payment method

Here you specify the type of payment method in question (such as check or bank transfer) and any other features of that payment method (for example, payment method is valid for personnel payments).
Depending on the payment method you select, only those features that match this payment method are offered. This means you can select only those fields that are suitable for the payment method selected.
  • Required entries in master record

Here you specify which specifications in the master record control whether the payment method is used (such as bank details or automatic debit authorization).
Note: If the required details have not been entered in the master record, the payment method cannot be used.
  • Posting specifications

You specify, for example, how the payment is to be posted (such as which journal entry type is to be used).
  • Which procedure is to be used to issue the accompanying payment form

One option is to use the classic payment medium programs. All of the payment medium programs contain comprehensive country/region-specific documentation. (Optional) Choose the Format in Company Code button in the Payment medium section. Select SAP Multi-Bank Connectivity in the Alternative Format Type dropdown list.
You can also use do this using the Payment Medium Workbench. You can navigate directly to the configuration step Create Payment Medium Formats under Finance -> Accounts Payable -> Payment Medium Formats to create payment medium formats and define their attributes.
  • You also specify which currencies are to be permitted for a country/region and payment method. If you leave the currency table blank, this means that all currencies are permitted.
Note
If the payment method only permits local currency payments, the specified currencies are ignored.
  • You have specified which payment methods are used by your organization.
  • You have already defined the following keys, which you need to enter here:
  • The document type for posting the payment

  • The special G/L indicator for posting a bill of exchange

Make sure that the payment methods to be used for paying the business partner's open items have been entered in the relevant customer/vendor master records.

  1. Check whether the payment methods required by your organization have been defined in the system.
  2. Make the necessary adjustments to the required payment methods, and enter the country-specific data.
