  The SAP error message SEPA112 indicates that there is an issue with the payment type specified in a SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area) payment file. Specifically, the error states that the payment type can only be '1' (one-off payment) or 'N' (multiple use payment). This error typically arises when the payment type is incorrectly set to a value that is not allowed in the SEPA format.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Payment Type: The payment type in the payment file is set to a value other than '1' or 'N'. This could be due to manual entry errors or incorrect configuration in the payment program.
  Configuration Issues: The payment method or the configuration settings in the SAP system may not be aligned with SEPA requirements.
  Data Entry Errors: If the payment type is being populated from a source that does not conform to the expected values, it can lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Payment Type: Review the payment type in the payment proposal or the payment file. Ensure that it is set to either '1' (for one-off payments) or 'N' (for multiple use payments).
  Adjust Configuration: If the payment method is incorrectly configured, you may need to adjust the settings in the SAP system:
  
  Go to the configuration for payment methods in transaction code OBPM1 (for payment method configuration).
  Ensure that the payment types are correctly defined for SEPA payments.
  
  
  Review Payment Proposal: If you are generating a payment proposal, check the settings in the payment run to ensure that the correct payment type is being selected.
  Test with Different Data: If the issue persists, try creating a payment with different data to see if the error is consistent or if it is related to specific entries.
  
  Related Information:
