This guide expertly introduces business users, SAP support staff, and SAP consultants to Bank Communication Management (BCM) in SAP S/4HANA and SAP ECC. Dive deep into BCM functionality and walk through end-to-end processes using BCM. Take a closer look at executing payment runs, batching payments, and approving and rejecting payments. Explore the technical aspects of using BCM, including alert implementation, automated payment reversals in the case of a rejected payment or batch, and the use of the BCM Connector to import and process a payment file generated from an external system. Understand how BCM is integrated with other payment-related modules in SAP. Look at configuration requirements and explore the available monitoring tools. Troubleshoot common implementation challenges and learn how to resolve them. Obtain an overview of SAP Multi-Bank Connectivity and how to use it to connect with banking partners, and learn about Advanced Payment Management. This book uses practical examples, tips, and screenshots to guide readers through BCM functionality and processes.
Before viewing the process steps using SAP screenshots, we will first walk through the end-to-end process flow for a vendor payment scenario in which two approvals are required before a payment file is sent to the bank. This process is outlined in Table 2.1.
The payment file format in this case is pain.001.001.03 and the bank sends back both file and transaction level acknowledgements in pain.002.001.03 format.
