Symptoms

Payables Invoice Open Interface does not recognize the Adjustment BETC (Business Event Type Code) for Credit Memos

Details: The Treasury guidelines for Federal Financials, has provided a list of BETCs for the original transaction and a mapped Adjustment BETCs to be used for related adjustment transaction.
                Ex BETC: DISB (on Invoice) and related Adjustment BETC: DISBAJ (on related Credit Memo)
                While importing AP Invoice Open Interface transactions, original BETC use of DISB on Invoice is successful, but on Credit Memo (negative amount) DISBAJ errors out as INVALID_BETC.
                The configuration for DISB and DISBAJ is setup correctly (see the attached screen shot)
                The Credit Memo transaction with BETC ‘DISB’ gets cleared and the interfaced transaction has BETC as ”DISB” which is not correct per the Federal guidelines.
                BETC should be DISBAJ. When tried to transact with DISBAJ as the BETC data in interface table (Global attrtibute1), the system errors out the transaction with error message of ‘Invalid BETC’.

Referring to the Metalink doc: BETC, Trading Partner TAS, and Federal Code Enhancements, Release 12 (Doc ID 1925664.1) and the section 12, 13, 14 – if the Amount is Negative and Disbursement BETC (which maps to the credit memo), the BETC used for the credit memo transaction should be the configured corresponding Adjustment BETC: Condition BETC used for PIR Trading Partner

BETC used for PIR Invoice Distribution Amount is Negative and Disbursement BETC Adjustment

Primary
As described in the doc for the SPS, PAM and PIR process, we expect similar Adjustment BETC would be used for the AP Open Invoice Interface for the Credit Memos, which currently is not the case.
Can you please provide guidance for the same.

Note: The new BETC in place of DISB is DISGF / DISNGF and corresponding adjustment BETC is different. The issue is still the same with these new Adjustment BETCs. The Open Interface does not valid with the corresponding Adjustment BETC.
