Employee payments : Is it possible to group the payment of several expense sheets for the same employee into 1 bank transfer in the SEPA file ?

Hi,

This question is related to an APPS 10 UPD10 environment and for SEPA format file.

Let’s say you have 3 expense sheets for the same employee.

You authorize the 3 expense sheets and transfer them for payment.

The created file will have 3 bank transfers, one for each expense sheet.

We would like to have only 1 bank transfer, grouping the 3 amounts.

Is that possible in some way ?

Thanks !

We did it with two customized RMB-Options.

First, we took all payments for the employee that are authorized and we made one advanced payment with the total sum.

Then this payment has been transferred as normal.

After this with a second customized RMB-Option the payment has been devided to the single expense sheets with correct amount to have a zero balance.

Afterwards you made the normal payment in full.

 

If you keep the correct order it works good.

Hi @LenaicDAVID ,

 

At Group header level , Tag  <CtrlSum>XXX</CtrlSum> is there with cumulative employment payment, does it not fulfill your business requirement?

Where is the problem with multiple payments? It’s more easy to control the payments for each expense by the employees  then.

The problem is that in some countries where we operate with IFS, there is a bank fee on every SEPA transaction.

Hello @LenaicDAVID

Did you get some Feedback from the RnD? We, like a customer, are also quite interested in the topic.

Thank you in advance!

Hello @LenaicDAVID 

As far as I know that is not possible.

Please raise a case to IFS Support so we can direct this to R&D.

Thank you,

It is pity that for something so common and logical, we have to do own customizing.

@JONEDE  Thanks for the entry.

Hi @Xavier Fernando 

Thank you for your comment.

I did the test with payments for several employees and the Tag  <CtrlSum>XXX</CtrlSum>  is presenting the total sum of the payments transferred in the file.

It is not a total per employee.

So that does not meet the business requirement.

Best regards

Hello again @LenaicDAVID ,

Is there something new on the topic? Is there something what we, like a customer, can do to emphasize to the RnD that it is an important feature for us?
