The Origin of the problem

- Morris telling me about it on Friday Jan 24, 2020
- text from the following screenshot:
- Hi
- I updated the payment method to C for this document via FBL1N, mass change.
- But this really puzzles me as to why MIRO services do not fetch the payment method from the vendor master.
- Is that a normal system behavoir ? Can you please help me understand.
- from Anna
- Morris says to look at FBZP
What does FBL1N, MIRO Services, and FBZP do ?
My Resources

- Google Search: sap payment method
- A payment method is a means used in SAP to make payments to Vendors or in some cases Customers, for liabilities owed to them.
- It is represented in the system by a one character alpha-numeric key.
