  The SAP error message FICUSTOM111 indicates that multiple bank accounts are being used in a single payment document, which is not allowed in the system configuration. This error typically arises during the payment processing phase, particularly when trying to execute a payment run or when manually processing payments.
  Cause:
  
  
  Multiple Bank Accounts: The payment document is attempting to reference more than one bank account for the same payment transaction. This can happen if:

  The configuration settings in the payment program do not allow for multiple bank accounts in a single payment run.

  Solution:
  
  
  Review Payment Document: Check the payment document to ensure that all line items are associated with the same bank account. If there are multiple bank accounts, you may need to split the payment into separate documents.
