Title
Inbound file importing program

Purpose
Program RFCRD00 imports into the SAP system the inbound file ofa payment card company with the data records of the individual cardtransactions for the process Payment card processing in FinancialAccounting.

Prerequisites

• The data records must be exist in data format CRFLATFILE.


• All fields, including the amount fields, are in character format.

Features

Customer-defined function modules
The program is divided into 4 activities. For each activity a standardfunction module is distributed with the delivery system. You can extendthe functions by using customer-defined function modules for:


• Importing inbound file


• Converting inbound files into CRFILEPOS
format
When converting into data format CRFILEPOS, amount fields are, forexample, changed into packed format.

• Consistency check

The customer-defined function module for checking consistency carriesout all checks of the standard module and a number of additionalchecks.

• Duplicated data check

The standard module for checking duplicate data only executes a verysimple check. You ensure that a file is only stored once in the system,either using organisational measures or by using a customer-definedenhanced function module.
You can create the customer-defined module in the Customizing ofpayment card processing under the path Accounting -> FinancialAccounting -> Vendors -> Environment -> Payment Cards -> Settings ->Card Types -> Maintain.

The data records are displayed as a list. More data on a record can becalled up using Scroll right.
After a check has been executed the payment card file can be saved tothe database.
