• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FKK_SEPA079 - Only limited mandate check possible for date &1 due to bank change ?

  The SAP error message FKK_SEPA079 indicates that there is an issue with the SEPA mandate check due to a change in the bank details associated with a customer or vendor. This typically occurs when a payment is being processed, and the system detects that the bank account information has changed since the last mandate was created or used.
  Cause:
  
  Bank Change: The primary cause of this error is that the bank account details for the customer or vendor have been changed after the mandate was created. This could happen if the customer or vendor has switched banks or updated their bank account information.
  Mandate Validity: The existing mandate may not cover the new bank details, leading to a situation where only a limited check can be performed.
  Mandate Expiry: The mandate may have expired or is not valid for the new bank account.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Bank Details: Check the bank details of the customer or vendor in the SAP system to ensure they are correct and up to date.
  Create a New Mandate: If the bank details have changed, you may need to create a new SEPA mandate that reflects the new bank account information. This can usually be done through the relevant transaction in SAP.
  Update Mandate Information: If the mandate is still valid but needs to be updated, ensure that the mandate is modified to include the new bank details.
  Check Mandate Status: Verify the status of the existing mandate to ensure it is active and valid for the intended transactions.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's guidelines on handling SEPA mandates and bank changes for specific steps and procedures.
