Posted on by Sayid

Hello, I was wondering, if it is possible to change the name of XML file when Generating payments in Vendor payment journal. When I Generate payments, .zip file is exported, the name of the zip file is set in dialog:

e.g. in this example, .zip file is exported named test1 and in the .zip file, there is xml file called e.g. ISO2022 Credit transfer, based on Electronic reporting configuration:

is it somehow possible please, to the .xml file has the same name, that is written in the dialog for the .zip file? E.g. both of the files has the name test1? I tried to check that in electronic reporting, but can not find how to e.g. bind that.

Thanks for any advice

regards, Sayid

Hi Sayid,

Here you can see how to do it: Electronic reporting – configure the vendor payment filename – Magno Pereira Dynamics 365 Blog – Dynamics 365 Finance, Supply Chain, and Commerce (magnomgp.github.io)

Hi Magno, thanks, this site looks cool and explains a lot. I am just not sure about my requirement of having the "File name"

For example when I try to debug that in Electronic reporting:

so I can take a look on the values, it is not possible to enter File name. Is there somewhere in the Data source on the left data source for the name inserted while Generating payments?

As far as I know, I can't get the file name field of the payment generation base form.

Does the name have to be free text and user defined at payment generation time?

Unfortunately yes, the name is written by the user when he wants to generate the payment...

Hi Sayid,

As a workaround, you can define a user input parameter and add the same value of file name to this field. Then you can map XMLHeader to this custom field so the xml file will be generated with specified value.

Hi Alireza,

thanks for your advice, I have tried that and it works, unfortunately, it is not exactly what the user requires, because they have to fill in name of the file twice, once in a Generate payments dialog and then in Electronic report parameters...

I was thinking about if it is not possible to change, where the xml file name is taken from, now it is taken from Electronic reporting, is it possible to change the code, that it would be taken from the dialog, and not from electronic reporting? I have tried to look for that, but could not find in the code, where it is set. Don't you know, please?
