What is Automatic Payment Program (APP)?
The FI program that selects due open items and creates outgoing payments and payment media for suppliers or customers.
Configured in FBZP and executed in F110, it runs in proposal and payment steps and produces payment files such as ISO 20022 XML through the Payment Medium Workbench. Errors in bank data or payment methods can block mass payments. Payment runs are high-priority cutover and hypercare tests.
