Understanding Outbound Interoperability Setup for Accounts Payable

To enable outbound processing for vouchers and payments, you specify the transaction type in the corresponding processing options. For vouchers, use the F0411 Interoperability Processing Options program (P0400048). For payments, use the F0413Z1 Retrieve Interoperability Processing Options program (P0400297).

To send corresponding accounts payable journal entry transactions, set the processing option in the F0911 Interoperability Processing Options program (P0900160). You are not required to specify the same transaction type for journal entries that you specify for vouchers or payments, but the transaction type processing option must be completed for journal entries to be processed to the F0911Z4 table.

When you send outbound accounts payable voucher or payment transactions, you should also include the matching accounts payable journal entry transactions.

If you create additional versions of the F0411 Interoperability Processing Options program for additional transaction types (for either vouchers or journal entries), you must specify the version that you create in the corresponding Voucher Entry MBF Processing Options (P0400047) or Journal Entry MBF Processing Options (P0900049) programs.

If you create additional versions of the Voucher or Journal Entry MBF Processing Options program, you must specify the version that you create in the processing option of the voucher entry program that uses the master business function processing options.

The system places a copy of each of these transaction in the interface table that corresponds to the type of transaction that you specify in the processing option:

  • Voucher transactions are placed in the F0411Z3 table.

  • Payment transactions are placed in the F0413Z1 and F0414Z1 tables.

  • Corresponding journal entry transactions are placed in the F0911Z4 table.
