AP Payment Batch & DFF data Questions

[Jayasree]

Hi,

I have few issues faced by one of our clients.

1- After a payment batch is selected and build, In ?Actions? the ?Print Preliminary Register? and ?Confirm Payment Batch? is enabled and processed by clicking ?OK?.
But due to some error the program was terminated . But output file with ?0? bytes is still created.
How to avoid creating a '0' bytes output file whenever error occurs..?

2- . DFF customized to capture ?Message to Beneficiary ? in the payment batch window DFF. This DFF can capture 140 alpha numeric characters. But in output this seems to be truncated and not showing full values.
Would it be because of the font size..? How to extend the data format of this field and what is the maximum we can set..?

3- If the Remittance amount havng more decimal point like 555.555 gets truncated to 555.55 in the out file send to bank.
Why truncated , can we set the rounding option to up/down..?where is it set..?

Can anybody throw some light..?

Thanks,
Jayasree
