This FAQ is trying to summarize the actual status and last year’s changes made to SwissPayment.
In 2017 SwissPayment was returned into responsibility of SAP. Consequently, no further enhancements were planned from us.
In November 2017 we learned that no valid solution for the Incoming ISR Payment was provided from SAP Business One. Therefore it was necessary to react fast; we were able to release a SwissPayment version just in time for the change of the bank file format camt.054 of the Postbank.
With the organizational changes in our company and to fulfill the demands from our customers we decided to take the lead for SwissPayment. This means that we will do even more enhancements in the future.
During the last year we were able to include the following major improvements as well as fixing bugs:

Most changes were done to improve the quality of the handling of the payment wizard and the bank file creation.
Because especially the address definition in business partner master data can vary in every company and therefor cause multiple error messages. This is an ongoing process.
We try to bring the error as soon and as specific as possible.
Because of the complexity of the PAIN format we recommend the following implementation guide lines:
The implementation guideline gives for example an overview what fields are mandatory for the different transaction types and what special cases are allowed.
Additionally, we will try to add some ‘Tips and Tricks’ to the FAQ:
- IBAN Number should not include free spaces.
- The customer ID should be minimum 6 digits. If smaller you can add a 0 at the end
- We decided that we will not include a Direct Debit bank format in SwissPayment. Direct Debit is covered fully by standard SAP business One and does not need any specialization for the Swiss localization.
- SAP Business One 9.3 PL 7 works best with SwissPayment 6.55. It was reported that version 6.6 will give errors when posting future outgoing payments. All other versions work fine with 6.6.
