- Payment term &1 and payment method &2 have different SEPA-relevance ?Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message: SAP Error Message: WS676 Payment term &1 and payment method &2 have different SEPA-relevance
Cause: This error occurs during payment processing or vendor/customer master data maintenance when the payment term and the payment method assigned to a business partner (vendor or customer) have conflicting SEPA (Single Euro Payments Area) relevance settings. Payment Term SEPA Relevance: Payment terms in SAP can be configured to indicate whether they are relevant for SEPA payments or not. Payment Method SEPA Relevance: Similarly, payment methods are also configured with SEPA relevance. If the payment term is marked as SEPA relevant but the payment method is not (or vice versa), SAP raises this error because it expects consistency between these two settings to ensure proper SEPA payment processing.
Solution: Check Payment Term Configuration: Go to transaction OBB8 (Define Payment Terms). Select the payment term &1 (as per the error message). Check the SEPA relevance indicator for this payment
