Key Features

Generates SEPA `pain.001.001.09` credit transfer XML from grouped ERPNext Payment Entries, validated against the target bank's XSD before download
SEPA direct debit engine producing `pain.008.001.08` collection files with correct `SeqTp` (FRST / RCUR / OOFF / FNAL) derived from each mandate's usage history
`SEPA Mandate` DocType with full lifecycle states, unique mandate reference (UMR), creditor identifier, signature date and 36-month dormancy expiry enforced by a scheduler event
camt.053 end-of-day statement importer that creates ERPNext Bank Transactions from uploaded or fetched XML
camt.054 debit/credit notification parsing with automatic matching on end-to-end ID, amount and remittance info
Auto-reconciliation against open Payment Entries, Sales Invoices and direct-debit batches, with a manual match screen for exceptions
R-transaction handling — returns, refunds, reversals and rejects reopen the source invoice and roll the mandate sequence state back
IBAN validation via mod-97 checksum plus BIC format and country-consistency checks fired on `validate` doc events in `hooks.py`
`SEPA Payment Batch` and `SEPA Direct Debit Batch` DocTypes to assemble, review, approve and lock transactions before file export
Whitelisted `@frappe.whitelist()` methods and Frappe REST API endpoints for batch generation, mandate creation and camt import from external systems
Role profiles and permission rules that separate mandate approval and file generation from routine data entry
Client scripts on Payment Entry and Customer for inline IBAN/BIC entry, mandate lookup and batch-eligibility flags
Configurable creditor/debtor identity, execution date and charge-bearer settings per Bank Account and company
Audit trail of every generated file (message ID, control sum, transaction count) linked back to the source documents
Supports Frappe/ERPNext v15 and v16, delivered as a standalone installable app that survives `bench update`

About this Product

EU finance teams running ERPNext quickly hit a wall when it comes to bank payments and collections. ERPNext core can record a Payment Entry and generate a Bank Transaction, but it has no native way to produce a SEPA-compliant pain.001.001.09 credit transfer file, no direct debit engine with mandate lifecycle handling, and no built-in importer for camt.053/camt.054 bank statements. Teams end up keying payments into bank portals by hand, chasing mandates in spreadsheets, and reconciling statements line by line — slow, error-prone, and impossible to audit at scale.

ECOSIRE builds a proper Frappe app (ecosire_sepa) that fills exactly this gap inside ERPNext. It ships new DocTypes — SEPA Mandate, SEPA Payment Batch, SEPA Direct Debit Batch and a camt import staging DocType — plus link fields on Customer, Supplier and Bank Account for IBAN/BIC. Payment Entries and Payment Requests are grouped into a batch, and a whitelisted server method renders standards-compliant XML: pain.001 for outgoing credit transfers and pain.008 for direct debit collections, with the correct SeqTp handling (FRST/RCUR/OOFF/FNAL) driven by each mandate's usage history. IBANs and BICs are validated on save via hooks.py doc events (mod-97 checksum on the IBAN, BIC format and country-consistency checks) so malformed account data never reaches the bank.

On the inbound side, the suite parses camt.053 (end-of-day) and camt.054 (debit/credit notifications) into ERPNext Bank Transactions and drives auto-reconciliation against open Payment Entries, Sales Invoices and the direct-debit batches — matching on end-to-end IDs, amounts and remittance information, and flagging R-transactions (returns, refunds, reversals) so a bounced direct debit automatically reopens the invoice and updates the mandate's sequence state. Mandate management is first-class: a full lifecycle (draft, active, suspended, expired, cancelled) with unique mandate references, signature-date capture, first-use tracking and the 36-month dormancy rule enforced by a scheduler event in scheduled_tasks. Role profiles and permission rules keep file generation and mandate approval separate from data entry, and everything is reachable through the Frappe REST API and whitelisted methods for integration with your bank connectivity or treasury tooling.

Because this is build-to-order, nothing is auto-provisioned. We start with a scoping call to confirm your bank(s), the exact ISO 20022 schema versions they require (banks differ on pain.001 variants and country addenda), your reconciliation rules and your ERPNext version (v15 or v16). ECOSIRE then builds your version of the app, tests it on a staging bench with your real message samples, walks your team through UAT, and installs it to production with a rollback plan. Typical delivery is one working week from confirmed scope. You receive the installable source, a git repository handover, technical and user documentation, a training session and a post-go-live support window — you own the code and can extend it in-house afterward.

What you get

  • Installable source code for your version of the `ecosire_sepa` Frappe app (pinned to your ERPNext v15 or v16)
  • Installation and configuration on your environment — creditor identifier, bank profiles, schema versions and role profiles set up
  • Technical documentation: DocType reference, hooks/doc-events map, whitelisted API methods and scheduler jobs
  • End-user guide plus a live training session for your finance team on batches, mandates and reconciliation
  • UAT on a staging bench using your real bank message samples, with a documented rollback plan before production cut-over
  • Post-go-live support window for defect fixes and configuration adjustments
  • Git repository handover so you own the code and can extend or audit it in-house
  • Bank message conformance pack — sample pain/camt files validated against your bank's XSD requirements

Who this is for

EU Finance Manager / Controller

Owns the payment and collections cycle and needs SEPA credit transfers and direct debits generated straight from ERPNext, with a clean audit trail and separation of duties instead of manual bank-portal keying.

Accounts Receivable / Collections Lead

Runs recurring direct debit runs and needs reliable mandate lifecycle management, correct FRST/RCUR sequencing, and automatic handling of returned collections that reopen the right invoices.

ERPNext System Administrator / Implementation Partner

Maintains the bench and wants a clean, standalone Frappe app with sane DocTypes, hooks and permissions that survives `bench update` and comes with a git repo they can support in-house.

CFO / Treasury Lead of an EU SME

Wants collections automated and reconciliation timely and accurate across bank accounts, reducing days-sales-outstanding and closing the books faster without buying a separate treasury platform.

Frequently Asked Questions about SEPA Direct Debit & ISO 20022 Suite

Is this a ready-made app I can download and install today?

No. This is build-to-order. ECOSIRE scopes your bank requirements, ISO 20022 schema versions and reconciliation rules, then builds, tests and installs your version of the app. There is no instant Marketplace download — you receive the source and a git handover once it is delivered.

How long does delivery take?

Typical delivery is one working week from confirmed scope. The timeline depends on how many banks and message variants are in play and your UAT availability. After the scoping call we give you a firm estimate before any work starts.

Which ERPNext versions are supported?

We build against Frappe/ERPNext v15 and v16, pinned to your exact version. The app is delivered as a standalone Frappe app so it survives `bench update` and can be maintained independently of ERPNext core.

Will it work with my specific bank's file format?

Yes — that is why we start with scoping. Banks differ on which `pain.001`/`pain.008` variants and country addenda they accept, so we validate generated files against your bank's XSD and test with your real message samples on staging before go-live.

How are direct debit mandates and returned collections handled?

The `SEPA Mandate` DocType manages the full lifecycle (active, suspended, expired, cancelled) with UMR, signature date and the 36-month dormancy rule. Sequence type (FRST/RCUR/OOFF/FNAL) is derived automatically, and R-transactions imported from camt files reopen the source invoice and roll the mandate's sequence state back.

What do support and updates look like after go-live?

Delivery includes a post-go-live support window for defect fixes and configuration adjustments. Because you receive the source and git repo, your team can extend it in-house; ECOSIRE also offers ongoing support and version-upgrade engagements separately if you prefer us to maintain it.

Can other systems trigger batches or push statements in?

Yes. The app exposes whitelisted `@frappe.whitelist()` methods and the standard Frappe REST API for batch generation, mandate creation and camt import, so your treasury tooling or bank connectivity layer can integrate without touching the UI.
