Camt.054 upload in Vendor payment journal impossible

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 45

Dear Community,

while working on vendor the methods of payments I couldn't help but notice that there is no way to upload a Camt.054 file in the vendor payment journal, as is the case for a customer payment journal. Why would I need to do this ? Because we pay some of our vendor with  direct debits. Therefore, the bank creates a camt.054 file that lists all the direct debits done on our bank account for a given period. 

If I am not mistaken, there is no standard way to import that file in the vendor payment journal.

How do you record this kind of transaction ? 

Thanks for your input,

Alexis

    Hi Alexis,

    I believe you are right that there is no standard upload feature for that file.

    Yet, can't you simply settle those payments with your daily bank statement, which should contain those payments?

    If you are doing the reconciliation in a standard GL journal then you can directly settle the open vendor transactions.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Ludwig, thank you for your answer, though I am not sure I understand everything. Please let me explain.

    I can indeed post into the GL the transactions from the bank statement (we use MT940) that are the direct debits done by vendors. Doing so requires using the "post transactions" functionality from the bank statement page. This functionality posts the selected transactions to the GL and not to the vendor subledger. In which case, it is not possible to settle open vendor invoices against these transactions, unless I am missing something.

    As for doing the reconciliation in a standard GL journal, this means importing the MT940 in a general journal, which is a feature that has been removed as stated in this post community.dynamics.com/.../bank-statement-import-methods-for-general-journal---import-format-mt940-howto-setup . So this is not a viable solution.

    I am a little confused why Microsoft wouldn't give a standard solution for that.

    Hi Alexis C,

    In your scenario, you will get CAMT.054D from your bank, with the information related to direct debit included.

    Here you can find additional information: Import ISO20022 files - Finance | Dynamics 365 | Microsoft Docs

    If you're importing the camt.054 file, you should specify the following additional parameters:

    • Fee ID â€“ Enter the Fee ID which will define new payment fee lines, which will be created on the Vendor payment journal line if a charge amount is present in the camt.054 file.
    • New journal name and New journal description â€“ Enter the name and description of the journal that processed transactions will be transferred to. After the transfer, new voucher numbers should be assigned in the new journal.
    • Import direct debit transactions â€“ Set this option to Yes if outgoing direct debits must be imported into the Vendor payment journal.
    • Journal name â€“ Define a new journal name for the imported direct debit transactions.
    • Settle transactions â€“ Set this option to Yes if imported vendor payments must be settled with invoices that are found in the system.

    You can view the imported information on the Payment transfers page.

    Using this process, a new vendor payment journal will be generated for the imported direct debit transactions.

    Best regards,
