This activity is found in Customizing under Financial Accounting -> Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable -> Business Transactions -> Outgoing Payments -> Automatic Outgoing Payments -> Payment Method/Bank Selection for Payment Program.

In this activity you make the settings that control the payment program. You determine:

  • Which company codes are included in payment transactions and which company codes make payments.

  • Which payment methods can be used.

    For the payment method, you make specifications that are either dependent on the country or on the paying company code.

  • Whether you want to use payment method supplements.

    You can group payments using payment method supplements (mailstop codes) and therefore, for example, control the sending of checks.

  • From which bank accounts payment is made.

    The payment program can select the bank account according to defined rules or you can specify from which account a payment is to be made.

  • With which form payment is made.

    The forms are to be defined in the system using SAPscript. For every paying company code, you specify which form is used per payment method.

Note

You can also make down payments with the payment program and pay with bills of exchange. For more information on these special features, see the FI Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable documentation.
