• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BSNAGT/MESSAGE013 - Payment proposal only; payment media not created ?

  The SAP error message /BSNAGT/MESSAGE013 indicates that a payment proposal has been created, but no payment media has been generated. This typically occurs in the context of the payment processing functionality in SAP, particularly when dealing with accounts payable and payment runs.
  Cause:
  
  Payment Proposal Only: The message indicates that the system has only created a payment proposal and not the actual payment media. This can happen if the payment run is configured to only generate proposals without executing the payment.
  Configuration Settings: The payment run configuration may not be set up to create payment media. This could be due to settings in the payment program configuration (transaction code: FBZP).
  Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used during the payment run may not have included any items that require payment media generation.
  Payment Method: The payment method used may not be configured to generate payment media.
  Errors in Master Data: Issues with vendor master data or bank details can also prevent the generation of payment media.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Payment Run Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction code FBZP and review the configuration for the payment program. Ensure that the settings for generating payment media are correctly configured.
  Verify that the payment method is set up to create payment media.
  
  
  
  Review Payment Proposal:
  
  Check the payment proposal created to ensure that it includes items that should generate payment media. You can do this by using transaction code F110 and reviewing the proposal.
  
  
  
  Adjust Selection Criteria:
  
  When executing the payment run, ensure that the selection criteria are set correctly to include all relevant items for payment.
  
  
  
  Check Vendor Master Data:
  
  Verify that the vendor master data is complete and accurate, including bank details and payment methods.
  
  
  
  Execute Payment Run:
  
  If the payment proposal is correct and the configuration is set up properly, you may need to execute the payment run again to generate the payment media. Ensure that you select the option to create payment media during the execution.
