How To Fix FIPAY_GTS001 - No check can be made in SAP GTS in an automatic payment process

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FIPAY_GTS -

• Message number: 001

• Message text: No check can be made in SAP GTS in an automatic payment process

What causes this issue?

This message is issued in the following circumstances:
<LS>SAP Global Trade Services</> (SAP GTS) cannot be reached during an
automatic payment process.
The check in SAP GTS could not be made due to missing or incorrect
settings in Customizing of SAP GTS (technical incompleteness).

System Response

The system responds according to the system message setting as follows:
Message type A:
In a payment proposal or an update run without payment proposal the
system terminates processing.
In an update run with prior payment proposal, the system terminates
processing if the check in SAP GTS could not be carried out even for the
payment proposal, and consequently no documents could be checked.
The system continues with processing in an update run with prior payment
proposal in which all of the documents could be checked. It then only
writes new entries for program RFBREAKDOWNGTS. Starting the program
subsequently only informs the SAP GTS in this case that the documents
have been cleared, so that a termination is not justified in this
constellation.
Message type "S":
The system continues processing, and writes entries that can be used for
a subsequent check in SAP GTS with program RFBREAKDOWNGTS.

How to fix this error?

If there is a termination on account of no connection to SAP GTS,
consult the notes in the following <DS:NA.FIPAY_GTS004>Message</>.
If the system has written entries for the subsequent check of documents,
start program RFBREAKDOWNGTS once the payment run is finished.
Analyze the cause of the technical incompleteness of the document in SAP
GTS, and deal with any problems by making appropriate changes in
Customizing of SAP GTS, so that an adequate and orderly check in SAP GTS
can be made.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
