MSS - Error while initiating Travel Form

Hi All,
After applying travel request from ESS, request go to the Manager Self Service of his/her immediate boss.
In the universal worklist of MSS when manager clicks on the link of travel request -  Error Comes as:
"Error while initiating travel form "
Basis and EP Guys are not able to identify the problem.
Kindly let me know if any configuration is required in ECC or any activities to be done in EP.
Very Thanks in Advance..
Edwin

Hi Edwin,
per default, the Forms of Travel Management use the PDF-Format. For the generation of these PDFs "Adobe Document Services" must be installed on a java server and published via SM59 to the respective HCM Backend. If ADS is not available, Travel Management will still try to use it, thus you get this error. So your options are:
1. Tell your Basis Guys they need to install and configure ADS on a java Server and make A connection in SM59 on the respective HCM Backend.
For documentation check here:
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/30a9630b-4f89-2a10-6fab-e311b3ffd9a6?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true
OR
2. You can change the displayed Format from PDF to HMTL by doing the following:
- Go to Customizing Travel Management --> Travel Planning --> Expert View --> Define Enterprise-Wide Control Parameters
- Make a new entry and choose HTMLFORM_R_P for attribute and X for value. Save.
- Go to Customizing Travel Management --> Travel Expenses --> Travel Expenses Control --> Travel Expenses Control Expert View
- Set the Parameter of Other Settlement No. 24 (number four for the right matrix) from 0 TO 1, thus setting Adobe Forms inactive.

  • Error while initiating Travel Form

    I received the error 'Error while initiating form' in Travel Expense. It is linked to Message no. 56568. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I currently do not have access to OSS Note.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    It seems to be a config issue.
    If you don't use Adobe but  ABAP Forms check/change one of:
    1) the customizing in the IMG activity "<i>Travel Expenses Control (Expert View)</i>":
    Set the indicator "<i>Other Settlement</i>" in the column 24 for the appropriate trip provision variant to the value: 0 (active), 1 (not active), 2 (not active only in PR05 and PR04)
    or
    2) the data in the table <i>V_T702N_A</i> - double click your variant on "A<i>ccounting Control in Expert View:Overview</i>" screen and change the value as above on Deails screen.

  • ECC6 - PR05 - Error while initiating travel form

    Hello Everybody,
    With the new version ECC6, I have this error message  "Error while initiating travel form" when I launch the results with the PR05 transaction.
    Thanks in advance for your help
    Best Regards

    We can not have PDF forms since it requires Java stack which is not
    installed on the system. we looked into the option of
    changing config to use the old ABAP form instead.
    We changed the config from 0 to 1 to desactivate the PDF form  and issue is resolved.
    Thanks.

  • Err while initiating travel form in pr05 after upgrade from ECC5.0 to 6.0

    Hi gurus,
    I was trying to simulate a trip in pr05. the err "err while initiating travel form" prompt up while initiating. This err only occurs after our ecc upgrade from 5.0 to 6.0. Before it was fine with Standard Travel Form.
    Does anyone of you know what's the problem? Any help you would provide will be highly appreciated!
    Rgs, Michelle

    Hello Michelle,
    There is already a possibility to use the HTML form for Travel
    Request and Travel Plan BUT is only possible after you apply the       
    Support Package 09 for EA-HR (SAPKGPHD09).                                                                               
    In table TA20SWITCH you can use the Attribute HTMLFORM_R_P and there   
    define an entry "X".                                                                               
    This functionality is ONLY delivered with Support Package 09.

  • Error while initializing the travel form

    Hi Guys,
    In the ESS, when I try to display the travel, the system displays the following message "Error while initializing the travel form".
    I've consulted the BASIS, and he said that Adobe is already installed in the machine.
    Someone knows how can I fix this problem?
    Thanks

    Check the Variant "TRVFR".
    Check whether the Name of the Travel request Form is maintained or not?

  • Travel Display Form: Error while determining the form function module

    Hi,

    "Error while determining the form function module"
    Can anyone have idea on this?

    Hi,
    This error was due to Not supported platforms of ADS (Adobe Document services)
    It was not supported on itanium64 bit processors.
    Please check where the ADS is supported in service.sap.com/pam
    You can use the ADS in the Non-Supported Server by linking it to Supported Platform Server using the SM59 link. This will make the ADS files to work.
    Please refer the ADS Config Doc for details.
    Hope you also solve this problem.
