• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FIBL_RPCODE102 - Payment mthd &1 requires house bank and target bank to be in same country ?

  The SAP error message FIBL_RPCODE102 indicates that there is an issue with the payment method configuration in relation to the house bank and target bank. Specifically, the error states that the payment method requires both the house bank and the target bank to be in the same country. This is typically encountered during the processing of payments, such as when executing payment runs or creating payment documents.
  Cause:
  
  Configuration Issue: The payment method being used is configured to require that both the house bank (the bank account from which payments are made) and the target bank (the bank account to which payments are sent) must be located in the same country.
  Incorrect Bank Details: The house bank or target bank may have been set up with incorrect country information, or the payment method may not be suitable for cross-border transactions.
  Payment Method Settings: The payment method settings in the configuration may not allow for international payments, leading to this restriction.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Bank Master Data:
  
  Go to the bank master data for both the house bank and the target bank.
  Ensure that the country codes for both banks are the same. If they are different, you may need to adjust the bank details accordingly.
  
  
  
  Review Payment Method Configuration:
  
  Navigate to the configuration settings for the payment method in question (Transaction code: OBPM1 for payment methods).
  Check the settings related to the country restrictions and ensure that the payment method is configured correctly for the intended use (domestic vs. international payments).
  
  
  
  Adjust Payment Method:
  
  If the payment method is not suitable for cross-border transactions, consider using a different payment method that allows for such transactions.
  Alternatively, if the payment is indeed intended to be domestic, ensure that both banks are correctly set up in the same country.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific guidelines on configuring payment methods and bank details.
