Steps
Open transaction FPY1 and review the concept first: direct debit collects open receivables from contract accounts through a payment run, much like F110 in FICO.
In configuration, define the payment method for direct debit and assign it to the company code and country.
Set up the payment run parameters: identification, run date, and the payment method you just created.
Configure the bank details and house bank used for the debit, then save the settings in a transport request.
Update the master data: add the payment method and bank details to the business partner and contract account.
Create or check open items on the contract account so the payment run has something to collect.
Run the payment run in FPY1 in simulation mode first and review the proposal log for errors.
If the proposal is correct, run the payment run for real and check the generated payment documents and clearing.
Tips and common mistakes
Always run the payment run in simulation before the update run so you can fix master data errors first.
Missing bank details on the contract account are the most common reason an item is not selected.
Test in a sandbox client before transporting configuration to production.
Questions
What is the difference between FPY1 and F110?
FPY1 is the FICA payment run for contract accounts, while F110 is the FICO payment run for vendor and customer items. The logic is similar but the master data and objects differ.
Why is my item not picked up by the payment run?
Check that the payment method is set on the contract account, bank details exist, and the item is due within the run date range.
Can I reverse a direct debit payment run?
Yes, you can reverse the payment documents, but do it before the debit is sent to the bank to avoid failed collections.
