Hello,
Thank you . Yes, I have done these steps . I am only working with one
group, although you would not know this by just looking at the screen to
create the variant.
AS you suggested I did create a variant for SAPFPAYM_SCHEDULE, but that
seems odd to me as It looks that that to generates an internal variable
.
Still no luck as SAP is not recognizing the existing variable for the
FME format.
I am wondering , as I have used this functionality on the vendor side
many times and never had this issue .Is it something with using in
relation to a customer?
More help requested.
Thank you in advance

(I never noticed that there is something as "payment group" I must
admit.)
Copy/Paste from 4.6 help text:
In Customizing for the Payment Medium Format, choose Adjust Payment
Medium
Format and determine the level of detail. The level of detail governs
how payment media are output in payment groups. In selection variant
maintenance, the system displays all defined payment groups that each
require assignment of one selection variant.
At least 1 variant is defined in each payment group for each payment
medium format. It is important to assign a selection variant to each
group to ensure that no payment is forgotten.
To assign a selection variant, in Customizing for Financial Accounting,
choose Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable [1] Business
Transactions [1] Outgoing Payments Automatic Outgoing Payments Payment
Media Make Settings for Payment Medium Formats from Payment Medium
Workbench Create/Assign Selection Variants.
On the left side of the screen, select the payment medium format to
which you want to assign a variant. The system displays the format on
the right side of the screen. When you place the cursor over a selection
variant field and press F4 the system displays possible variants. Choose
the variant you require.
Carry out assignment for each individual group level.
Save assignment of the selection variants.
Creating selection variants
To create a selection variant, in Customizing for Financial Accounting,
choose Accounts
Receivable and Accounts Payable / Business Transactions / Outgoing
Payments /
Automatic Outgoing Payments / Payment Media / Make Settings for Payment
Medium
Formats from Payment Medium Workbench / Create/Assign Selection
Variants.
On the left side of the screen, select the payment medium format for
which you want to create a variant. The system displays the format on
the right side of the screen.
Place the cursor over a selection variant field, enter a name for a new
variant, and press continue.
The system displays a dialog box where you confirm variant creation.

The system displays a dialog box where you confirm variant creation.
Selection Variants
The system displays the selection screen of the generic payment medium
program
SAPFPAYM.
Here, you enter the required selection criteria, then you maintain the
attributes before saving the variant.
Choose Back to return to selection variant maintenance for the payment
medium formats.
Save assignment of the selection variants.
If you want to work with Dynamic selections you can enter several
variants per group
using the procedure described above (Variant [1] Enter further
variants). You should
only use Dynamic selections to define selection variants where no
alternative exists.
After this, you need to ensure that no payment order has been carried
out in
duplicate and that only 1 payment medium has been created for each
order.
You can increase the level of detail in Customizing (Adjust Payment
Medium Format)
as an alternative to Dynamic selections.
Transporting selection variants
In selection variant maintenance for payment medium creation, it is
possible to branch to transport of the settings made and the selection
variants for payment medium creation themselves.
To carry out the transport, in Customizing for Financial Accounting,
choose Accounts
Receivable and Accounts Payable / Business Transactions / Outgoing
Payments /
Automatic Outgoing Payments / Payment Media / Make Settings for Payment
Medium
Formats from Payment Medium Workbench / Create/Assign Selection
Variants.
To transport the selection variants, choose Transport variants to all
formats.
To transport selection variant assignment, choose Transport settings to
all formats. You can decide whether you transport the currently selected
format or whether you transport all formats.
Result
The payment program starts payment medium creation using each selection
variant entered.
P.S. If you are configuring a french payment method, do you use a French
alternative chart of account and an operational one like INT or IKR?
