This activity is used to connect message codes to a selected payment format for which the file template is used to identify the type of the payment transaction depending on the message code. Message code values are generally connected to payment formats defined by the payment institutes.
If a specific function should be executed when processing the external payment, a value from the drop down list for the Payment Format Message Function can be specified.
Note: The functions Change Payment Date and Remove From Order are used only if the Transaction Type field has the value Direct Debiting selected. The function Create Difference Item is only used if the Transaction Type field has the value Customer Payment selected.
In order to perform this activity, message codes predefined by external payment institutes must be known.
As a result of this activity, it will be possible to use the message codes in external payment parameters for payment methods which are linked to the payment format.
