FPY1

Hello Guy's

Another query. Would like to use the parallel processing function whilst running FPY1. Currently our system when we run FPY1

it locks the contract account thus not allowing any other payment run, as a result we need to wait for each payment run to finish to the start the next one.

Do we need to create diff number ranges for BP with different programs.

Please help.

Regards

Saj

The szenario you describe is quite unusual and should not be processed

this way. If you schedule a payment run, then the system locks the

contract accounts beeing handled in that run. If you schedule more

than one run with the same intervall, then the contract accounts

are locked reciprocally. Please use only one run at one time and

schedule the next one after the first one has finished. If you would

like to enhance the performance of the run, I recommend you to go to

the tab index "Technical Settings" and create an interval variant

and schedule one run with more jobs (increase the number of jobs

within this tab index)

Hi Vijayesh, Thanks for the help. As its a govt dept, we are getting a lot of govt programs comming in and this makes the job of the person who is running the payrun hectic and takes a whole day to run all the payrun. However is there a way if we could automate the FPMA tcode as this might save a bit of their time. Coz the clearing too takes long.

Please do let me know.

Hi

FPMA - This you can schedule in FPScheduler. so that you can execute automatic clearing at periodic intervals.

FPY1- In this case check the possibility of Diffrent run ID and date ID , Creation of intervals in technical settings. Further FPY1 business run once in a day, if i am not wrong. Check the possibility of batch scheduling through FPSChedular.

I hope this may solve your problem.

Hi Srinivas, THanks for your help. It was very helpful. However i have a question on how the FMA clearing works.

Its mainly for Advance payments, We have main and sub transactions maintained already, But there are a few open items in our system which is already paid and still appears to be sitting in FPL9 as open.

Can you shed some light.
