A user in the SAP for Utilities community sought help on debugging a custom FQEVENT (R401) triggered during mass invoice creation. While the event correctly fired during interactive execution via EA26 or EASIBI, breakpoints were not hit when the mass invoice job was scheduled using RFKK_MA_SCHEDULER. Community experts suggested debugging the mass program as a background job via SM50, running EA26 directly in debug mode, or setting a breakpoint in the relevant standard function module ISU_INV_ACC_MAINTENANCE to trace the event's invocation. The user also noted data discrepancies between development and quality assurance systems as a potential factor.

A SAP Product Manager confirmed that no specific API exists to orchestrate credit card lot posting, suggesting custom wrappers around the existing BAPIs, though the user clarified these are not suitable for credit card payments.
