Understanding the XML File for SEPA Payments

When you use the automatic payment process in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software, you specify the payment print program to use. The payment print program controls how the system writes records to the database tables.

For SEPA payments, you set the payment print program to P704001, version ZJDE0002 and run the Write process of the automatic payment process to create the XML file.

Note: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne software does not support the transmission of the XML file to the bank. The software includes only the functionality to generate the XML file.

When you run the automatic payment process that is set to use the R704001 program for SEPA payments, the system:

  • Generates a PDF file that shows if the process completed successfully or with errors.

  • Generates the XML file.

  • Changes the payment status of the group from WRT (write) to UPD (update) if the process completed successfully.

You can also write single payments of a group by using the Work With Payment Group - Write Status program (P04572W). The system generates the SEPA Credit Transfer XML only for the payments written in the Work With Payment Group - Write Status form.

To write single payments:

  • Launch the Work With Payment Groups program (P04571).

  • Select the payment control group.

  • Access Payments from the Row menu.

  • In the Work With Payment Group - Write Status form, select one or multiple payments of the group, and select Write from the Row menu.
