Creating a Custom Payment File Format in Oracle Fusion Applications

Depending on the Country, there are instances where a Bank requires their own payment file format. An example would be MT9, which is exclusive to New Zealand banks. Below are the steps to define a new Payment File Format:

1. Upload a custom RTF File into BI Publisher as "eText" and save.
2. Navigate to: Setup and Maintenance > Task Pane > Search > search for the task “Manage Format”
3. Select the correct format type (in this case, "Disbursement Payment File Formats"), and click on create:

1. Input a meaningful name to the Payment format, and choose the custom BI Publisher template you've uploaded.

1. This can now be used as a valid Payment Format to Banks.
