Setting up parameters for A/P payments (Denmark)

Setting up A/P payments

This section describes how to perform the basic setup required to use the A/P payments functionality. It comprises of setting up two types of data:

Preload data
Control data

Along with the above data, there are special payment modes for Nordea and Danske Bank – local payments – that are required to be set up as part of preload.

For these data, separate format programs are defined which include the applicable payment modes, payment types and transfer file formats. Additionally, the control data entries must be done manually before running the A/P payment routine.

Preload of payment modes

The A/P payment mode tables and files need to be preloaded with data provided at installation.

Easy setup

The following format programs are preloaded:

Program	Description
DKF909	Pre-load Danske Bank DK
DKF910	Pre-load Nordea DK
DKF918	Pre-load Sydbank
DKF919	Pre-load Jyske Bank
DKF920	Pre-load BEC

Note: There are a few payment modes, referred to as special payment modes. Activate them only for Nordea and Danske Bank. They facilitate the cross border payment with low bank fees.

Request for transfer

To facilitate the Request for transfer service in A/P payments for Nordea, preload the following format programs:

Code	Description
DKF911	Pre-load Nordea RQ DE
DKF912	Pre-load Nordea RQ NO
DKF913	Pre-load Nordea RQ SE
DKF914	Pre-load Nordea RQ FI

Danske Bank – local payments

To facilitate the local payments for Danske Bank preload the following format programs:

Code	Description
DKF915	Pre-load Danske Bank NO
DKF916	Pre-load Danske Bank SE
DKF917	Pre-load Danske Bank FI

Other preload programs

Preload the following additional programs that will set up the payment types and file formats:

Code	Description
DKFC110	A/P Format program (Domestic Payment)
DKFC120	A/P Format program (InPayment)
DKFC130	A/P Format program (Foreign Payment)
DKFC610	Payment-Danske Bank-format program
DKFC611	Payment-Nordea-format program
DKFC612	Payment-Jyske Bank-format program
DKFC613	Create file format SYDBANK
DKFC614	Create file format BEC

Note: By default there are three payment modes that you should set up; which are DKF610, DKF620 and DKF630 using the format program Pre-load Jyske Bank. These represent the payment modes that enable you to use each of the three payment types for Jyske Bank. For all other payment modes, the format programs are to be specified at the time of installation according to the requirement, through routine call.

Setting up control data

Data should be set up in the following tables and files in the following order:

Order	Table/File	Description
1	A/P payment modes	Activate the newly created (preloaded) or required payment mode(s) for the applicable bank. The Work with A/P payment proposal routine uses these payment modes while creating an A/P transaction. There are multiple payment types associated with a payment mode. These payment types control the information sent to the financial institute or bank. The payment type also decides how the system posts the payments in the A/P and the G/L.
2	A/P payment maintypes	A/P payment maintype is a category, defined for banks operating in Denmark. The A/P payment maintype helps to create the format file in the respective folder that is linked in Work with payment folders. In this case, the A/P payment types that are associated with the format file are the payment modes, which the maintype supports. You can add multiple payment types with a particular payment maintype.
3	A/P payment folders	In this program, you specify the location on the IFS for saving the payment file of a certain payment maintype. The payment file generated after payment order creation in the A/P payment proposal routine is stored in the designated folder location and thereafter electronically sent to the web bank.
4	Card type	A card type decides the country of the payment. Hence, it used only for the foreign transfer DKF_30. It is also required for the payment type Request for Transfer for Nordea. Define the card type required, if not already available, using the Work with card types menu item.
5	Bank code	Used only for DKF_20 and when bank reference is required to be set up for Inpayment and local payments. Define the bank code and bank details using the Work with bank codes menu item.
6	Request for transfer (Nordea)	This is a special type of payment type only applicable for Nordea. The instructions are sent via the electronic banking system of the domestic bank, to debit an account held with another bank. The request may include payment instructions, such as intercompany payments, third-party domestic or international payments. Define your units and type of transfer that you want to execute for a particular unit.
7	Bank reference (Danske Bank – local payments)	This is a special type of payment type applicable to Danske Bank. Create an entry to maintain bank data for foreign payments.
8	Business partner file	Define the supplier payment modes in the A/P supplier payment mode table, used in the Work with A/P payment proposal routine. There is only one panel for bank information per payment mode. When you add bank information for a payment mode, then it creates a dummy record in the bank table as well. After installation, the A/P payment mode(s) need to be activated for the applicable business partners in the Business partner file, on the All A/P payment modes panel.
