The name of the UDF must be entered in /PACG/ECM_VPTYP2 – Define UDF for payment type and added to the relevant screen configuration in FSM. You could set a generic quantity in the field ‘Activity quantity’, in case no quantity came from FSM. Activity unit for quantity-based postings should be entered in field ‘ActivityUn’.
