5 Working With Other German Functionality

This chapter contains the following topics:

5.1 Understanding Vouchers for Z1 Payments for Germany

Specify the Create A/P Bank Diskette - Germany program (R04572G5) as the payment instrument for vouchers for foreign payments. Payment instruments are set up using the Payment Instrument Defaults program (P0417). The payment instrument can be entered at the time of voucher entry, the system might use a default value from the supplier master, or it can be changed by using speed release before the payment group is created.

In addition, each pay item must include detail about the purchase. The system uses the detail information to determine if record type W is used with the detail record (T) in the Z1 output file. This information is essential for reporting to the Bundesbank (German Federal Bank). The system creates a W record if the voucher (and, therefore, the payment) is related to services transactions or capital movements.

You must enter W from UDC 00/HC in the Payment Handling Code field (CRC) for each pay item. The system creates a W record only if the payment handling code is W.


Note:

You should enter W when you enter the voucher. However, the payment handling code can be added or changed in the speed release program before the payment group is created.

5.2 Understanding Encashments for Germany

Encashment, a common business practice in Germany, is a process by which a third-party receives payments from the customers of a business and then disburses the payment to the business. You can process encashment by using these methods:

5.2.1 Parent/Child Method

When you use the parent/child method to process encashments, a parent company processes all the receipts for its child companies. To use the parent/child encashment method, you must specify the number of the parent company or the special payee for each customer that you set up.

Process parent/child encashment invoices as you would process normal cash receipts. You can use the Parent Number or Factor/Special Payee fields on the Customer Ledger Inquiry form to select only the invoices that the parent company is going to pay.

5.2.2 Factoring Method

When you use the factoring method to process encashments, customers remit the payment for their invoices to an encashment company, which then processes the payments and invoices. You receive the payment for the invoices, minus a predetermined commission, from the encashment company.

To process encashments using the factoring method, you write off the receipts that you know will be paid by the encashment company using the receipts entry programs.

See "Understanding Invoice Match with Write-Off (TI Codes 10 and 15)" in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications Accounts Receivable Implementation Guide.

You must set up a reason code (user defined code 03/AR) and a general ledger account for the receipts that you plan to write off for encashment. The reason code that you associate with the receipts determines which general ledger account that the system debits when you post the receipts.

You set up the reason codes in the automatic accounting instructions (AAIs). For example, you set up AAI item RAxx (where xx is the two-character reason code) to associate the reason codes to the general ledger accounts.

5.3 Processing Z1 Payments for Germany

This section provides an overview of processing Z1 payments, lists prerequisites, and discusses how to:

  • Modify information at the payment group level.

  • Modify information at the payment detail level.

5.3.1 Understanding Z1 Payments

When issuing a foreign payment, German companies are required to submit a paper or electronic form that provides information to the Bundesbank (German Federal Bank) for statistical purposes.

The A/P Payments - Z1 Diskette format (R04572G5) provides a means to create foreign payments and the corresponding electronic form.

Z1 processing produces a specific foreign payment output file with the following records:

  • Q record: Header information.

  • T record: Detail payment information.

  • W record: Detail report information for service transactions or capital movements (to be reported to the Bundesbank).

  • Z record: Trailer information.


    Note:

    The Z1 output file does not include the V record. You cannot create automatic payments that relate to merchant trade because this information is related to the V record. If a payment is created for such purposes, you must write out the payment manually on a Z1 form.

Z1 processing uses the following tables, in addition to the standard AP payment processing tables, such as F04571, F04572, and F04573:

Table Descriptions
F74030G (Germany-Bank Transit Number Master Addtl Information) This table holds additional bank account information for each supplier's bank account. Each address book record can have only one record in the F74030G table.
F7404572 (Detail Payment Instructions for German Payments) This table holds the same information as the F74030G table, except that it is used to enter or update bank information at the payment control group level.
F7404573 (Detail Payment Instructions EXT. for German Payments) This table holds the same information as the F7404572 table, except that it is used to enter or update bank information at the pay item level.

5.3.1.1 Creating Payment Groups for Z1 Payments

Each time that you run the Create Payment Control Groups program (R04570) for Germany, the system calls the German country server (X045704DE). The country server creates a new record in the F7404572 table for each pay item. The record in table F7404572 is an exact copy of the equivalent record in the F74030G table.


Note:

The Create Payment Control Group program does not enable you to combine multiple currencies.

Special considerations exist when you use the Work With Payment Groups program (P04571) in Germany.

Before using the program, you should set the processing options as follows:

  • Enter version XJDE0001 in the Print Program Version processing option.

  • When using the Z1 format for foreign payments, enter 2 in the Payment Control Group Output processing option on the Print tab. This action creates one file for all control groups. In addition, the system creates one file for each bank account and currency.

5.3.1.2 Modifying Information in a Payment Group

After the group is created (but before it is written), the additional bank information can be changed for each individual payment group or pay item. To change the detail payment instructions for payments, you must access the payment group using Work With Payment Groups program.

The Work with Payment Group program provides the ability to display group or detailed payment instructions using the Detail Payment Instructions - German (P744572) and the A/P Payment Detail Extension File - Z1 Format (P744573) programs. The default bank account information for German foreign payments is displayed upon inquiry. The F74030G table provides the supplier's group and detail information. The information can be modified only before the payment is written. You can change any single code or all codes.

5.3.1.3 Writing Payment Groups for Z1 Payments

To combine two or more payment groups into one payment file to be sent to the bank, you need to perform the following steps when writing the group:

  • Set the Payment Control Group Output processing option on the Print tab of the Work With Payment Groups program to 1.

    This processing option enables you to write several groups into one file while separating the groups by the bank account number.

  • Because the system writes all of the groups simultaneously, select all of the groups in the detail area and then select Write from the Row menu.


    Important:

    If groups are written simultaneously, take special care to ensure that the groups are not reset or undone separately. It is recommended that immediately after writing groups, you review and then update the groups together to ensure that no vouchers are paid twice.

After you update, verify, or correct all of the details, you write the payment groups that create the Z1 file. The Z1 file is created only if the Create A/P Bank Diskette - Germany program (P04572G2) is specified as the payment instrument.

5.3.1.4 Key Notes Regarding the Fields for the Z1 Format

Consider these fields when processing payments using the Z1 format:

  • Q Record

    • Field 9

      This field indicates whether the file includes statistical information to send to the Federal Bank. This field is set to J if a W record exists. Otherwise, it shows an N.

    • Fields 10 and 11

      You must indicate the Regional Centre Bank area code for the Create A/P Bank Diskette - Germany program (R04572G5). Additionally, you must indicate the Principal's Company code and Principal's Industrial code. This processing option is mandatory because field Q9 is equal to J. If the processing option is blank, then the Bundesbank (German Federal Bank) rejects the file.

  • T Record

    • Field 8: SWIFT Address/BLZ

      This field contains either the SWIFT address or the BLZ code of the beneficiary's bank. You must enter one of these values, or the Bundesbank does not accept the file. If the SWIFT or BLZ code does not exist for the supplier, it is recommended that you submit the Z1 foreign payment format using a paper copy. You must complete this field in the F0030 table or the bank will reject the file.

    • Fields 16 through 19: Instruction Code 1 – 4

      The system completes these fields with the values that you enter for Instruction Codes 1 through 4 on the German Bank Account / Additional Information form in the Bank Account Cross Reference - Germany (P74030G) program, unless the value in Field 22 (Label to type of Payment) is 13. If the value in Field 22 is 13, the system completes fields 16 through 19 with 0 (zero).

    • Field 20: Additional Instruction Code Information.

      This field enables you to provide additional information for the instruction codes. You can enter this information in the Bank Account Cross Reference - Germany (P74030G) program.

    • Field 21: Cost Settlement Code

      This field contains the cost settlement code. You can enter this information using the Cost Settlement Code UDC (74/28) in the Bank Account Cross Reference - Germany program.

    • Field 22: Label for type of Payment

      This field contains the label for type of payment. You can enter this information using the Label for Payment UDC (74/29) in the Bank Account Cross Reference - Germany program.

    • Field 23 - Additional Instruction to Principal's Bank

      This field enables you to add instructions to the principal's bank account. You can enter this information in the Bank Account Cross Reference - Germany program.

    • Field 24: Contact Name and Telephone Number

      This field enables you to add the contact name and telephone number of the person to contact at the principal's company if the paying bank has questions that are related to the payment order. You can enter this information in the Bank Account Cross Reference - Germany program.

    • Field 25: Reporting Code

      This field enables you to indicate whether to report the contents of the T record to the Federal Bank. You can enter this information in the Bank Account Cross Reference - Germany program.

  • W Record

    Field 3 - Type of Transaction Concerned

    This field enables you to designate whether the transaction is for capital movements and capital gains, or for services or transfers. You can enter this information in the Bank Account Cross Reference - Germany program.

5.4 Working with the Z5a Sheet 2 Report for Germany

This section provides an overview of the Z5a Sheet 2 report, lists prerequisites, and discusses how to:

  • Run the Foreign Payables Table Generation program (R74900).

  • Set processing options for Foreign Payables Table Generation (R74900).

  • Run the Foreign Receivables Table Generation program (R74901).

  • Set processing options for Foreign Receivables Table Generation (R74901).

  • Run the German Z5a Sheet 2 Report - Summary (R74414) program.

  • Setting Processing Options for German Z5a Sheet 2 Report - Summary (R74414).

  • Run the German Z5a Sheet 2 Report - Detail (R74415) program.

  • Setting Processing Options for German Z5a Sheet 2 Report - Detail (R74415).

5.4.1 Understanding the Z5a Sheet 2 Report

Some European countries require that the balance of outstanding payables and receivables with foreign entities be reported on a periodic basis. The Deutsche Bundesbank (German Federal Bank) requires that various reports be submitted on a monthly basis, including the Z5a sheet 2. The Z5a Sheet 2 report is used to collect data that you can transfer to the official form for the Deutsche Bundesbank (German Federal Bank). The Z5a sheet 2 report details of "Forderungen und Verbindlichkeiten gegenuber Gebietsfremden aus dem Waren-und Dienstleistungs verkehr or Claims on and liabilities to nonresidents arising from transactions in goods and services. Foreign payables and receivables are classified by country, and they are reported in thousands of euros.

The Z5a Sheet 2 reports the group's data by affiliated or nonaffiliated companies, by accounts payable or accounts receivable, by prepayments, short-term payments or long-term payments, and by country and currency.

The basic requirement of the Z5a Sheet 2 is to report the company's open accounts payable and open accounts receivable amounts that were transacted with a foreign entity. For the purpose of generating foreign payables tables, all WF - As Of Accounts Payable Ledger table (F0411A) records that are posted but not paid are considered open.

All records written to the Foreign Receivables and Payables - EMEA table (F74900) should:

  • Relate to the reporting company.

    For the Z5a Sheet 2 report, the value that is entered during data selection must be equal to the reporting company.

  • Be posted.

    All records in tables F0411A and F03B11 must have a status equal to D, where D equals the transactions that have been successfully posted or that have been processed through the cash entries programs with a one-to-one record relationship with the general ledger (for example, adjustments, journal entry from cash receipts, and so on).

  • Have transaction dates falling on or before the report ending date.

    The report ending date is the general ledger date.

  • Have a customer country code that is different from the country code of the reporting company.

  • Be identified for affiliation or nonaffiliation.

  • Be identified for EMU membership.

    For the program to determine which currencies to summarize as euro currencies, you must set up the user-defined code list for European Union Members (00/EU).

  • Be identified as a prepayment, long-term obligation, or short-term payment.

    A long-term obligation is normally defined as a payable that is due one year from the processing date of the transaction. The value that is entered in this processing option is added to the general ledger date (processing date) and is compared with the due date of the transaction. If the calculated date is equal to or beyond the due date, the transaction is considered a long-term obligation. The system writes a 2 to the Foreign Receivables and Payables - EMEA table (F74900) for long-term obligations. A short-term obligation is normally defined as the calculated date minus the due date. The system writes a 3 to table F74900 for short-term obligations.

    Prepayments are determined by their general ledger offset for accounts receivable transactions and by their document type for accounts payable transactions.

The Z5a Sheet 2 Report - Summary (R74414) report provides totals of both accounts receivable and accounts payable records for prepayments, short-term payments, and long-term payments for affiliated companies and nonaffiliated companies. The totals are listed separately by country and currency.

The German Z5a Sheet 2 Report - Detail (R74415) is not required for reporting the accounts receivable and accounts payable totals to the Deutsche Bundesbank (German Federal Bank). This report contains transaction level detail, and it can be used for the review and audit of transactions.

5.4.1.1 Generating the Foreign Payables Table

The Foreign Payables Table Generation program (R74900) populates the Foreign Receivables and Payables - EMEA table (F74900), which supplies data to reporting programs. This program reads data from the WF - As Of Accounts Payable Ledger table (F0411A). The system uses the general ledger date to determine the records to process.

5.4.1.2 Generating the Foreign Receivables Table

The Foreign Receivables Table Generation program (R74901) populates the Foreign Receivables and Payables - EMEA table (F74900), which supplies data to reporting programs. The Foreign Receivables File Generation program is based on information in the Customer Ledger table (F03B11). The system uses the general ledger date to determine the records to process.

5.4.2 Prerequisites

Specify the year at the end of the first period rather than the year at the end of the fiscal period. For example, a fiscal year begins October 1, 1998 and ends September 30, 1999. The end of the first period is October 31, 1998. Specify the year 98 rather than 99.

Company

Specify the code that identifies a specific organization, fund, or other reporting entity. The company code must already exist in the Company Constants table (F0010) and must identify a reporting entity that has a complete balance sheet. At this level, you can have intercompany transactions.


Note:

You can use company 00000 for default values such as dates and AAIs. You cannot use company 00000 for transaction entries.

Month of Period End (1 - 12)

Specify the number indicating the current accounting period. This number, used in conjunction with the Company Constants table (F0010) and the General Constants table (F0009), enables the user to define up to 14 accounting periods. The current period number is used to determine posted before and posted after cut off warning messages. It is also used as the default accounting period in the preparation of financial reports.

5.6 Understanding Deferred Invoices and VAT

For deferred invoices, the VAT payable on sales should be declared with reference to the shipment date, not the invoice date. An example of deferred invoices is a product that is delivered daily and invoiced monthly.

Two types of deferred invoices are:

  • The invoice date and shipment date are in the same reporting period, but the shipment date is prior to the invoice date.

  • The invoice date and the shipment date are not in the same reporting period, and the shipment date is prior to the invoice date.

The second type of deferred invoice impacts summary VAT reporting. VAT should be accounted for the shipment month if that month is prior to the invoice month. To accomplish this task, the system evaluates the shipment date of a sales order to determine if it is prior to the invoice date.

This evaluation is performed during the Sales Update process (R42800) through the use of a country server. If the shipment date is prior to the invoice date, the system updates the Service/Tax Date field in the F03B11 and F0911 tables.


Note:

Select processing date as shipment date in the Select Date Value as A/R Invoice Date processing option of the Sales Update program (R42800), to keep the tax amount in synchronized for the invoice and the sales update.
