Approving Travel Requests and Travel Expenses

Hi All,
Need some light here. I'm trying to get a whole picture on this process. In a standard SAP Scenario, when a manager receives a notification in his UWL to 'Approve a travel request', can he/she approve/reject directly from the Portal OR does he/she needs to do it via 'travel manager' in ECC? Thanks
Regards

Hi Guys,
Any help on this?
Thanks

  • Urgent - Travel Requests and Travel Plans

    Hi all
    I am new to Travel and after reviewing the configuration notes and walking through the transactions I have an issue with what the business is requiring and what SAP travel management seems to be designed for.
    The requirement is to create either a plan or request for travel including airline, times, hotel and car rental and times etc. but without going through Amadeus or another reservation system. The aim was to create the plan/request and then send the request as a pdf to our current travel management company.
    I am having difficulty in specifying the airline or the flight times...
    Any and all help will be much appreciated.

  • OIM11g - Approval Workflow - Requester and Approver is same

    Hi All,
    I have a scenario where , requests are approved by a group. ( Resource Owners group).
    and if anyone needs access to this resource, the members of the group will approve the requests.
    What if any member of the "Resource Owners" groups raises a request on the same object ?? OIM functionally sends it to the group for approval, and it will become a self approval and is a conflict.
    How to avoid this kind of scenarios.
    Regards
    Vicky
    Edited by: vicky on Dec 7, 2011 5:18 AM

    AFAIK I haven't seen any system property to stop this. SOA does not care about who the requester is and who are the approvers. The way Oracle has impletmented the identity service for OIM in SOA does not handle this. Seems there is no SOD checks. Open a SR which I believe should be taken as a ER.
    Thus the workaround would be to get all the members of the approver group less the requester and assign to all the members. The member list should be comma seperated user ids.

  • ESS Travel - request transportation / accommodation

    Help
    I'm using business package ess of the portal.
    I thought he represented the transaction trip with all its features.
    However I am not finding place to come with information, transportation and accommodations in the functionality of creation of requests for travel.
    I need this functionality in my project.
    Do you have any suggestion.
    Does bp ESS does not have this functionality (request transportation / accommodation)?
    thank you.

    it's does effect your current Portal ESS.
    Only you are upgrading the Backend system to Eh P2 which means for travel you will get additional software component FIN_TRAVL_1 which needs to be activated after upgrading the ECC.
    You can read the  below SAP PROVIDED Notes
    SAP NOTES
    FIN_TRAVEL_1: Business Function Travel Management (New)
    Use
    As of SAP ECC 6.0, Enterprise Extension Travel Management Extension, enhancement package 2 (EA-TRV 602), you can use the business function Travel Management. This business function encompasses the new and extended functions of the Travel Management (FI-TV) component described below.
    New User Interface in SAP Enterprise Portal
    The extended travel management applications in Employee Self-Service (ESS) of SAP Enterprise Portal are based on Web Dynpro ABAP technology. If you activate this business function, SAP Enterprise Portal no longer launches the Web Dynpro Java applications, but rather the new Web Dynpro ABAP applications. Users require new authorization profiles, which are defined in the new standard roles. The following Web Dynpro ABAP applications are available in ESS:
    My Trips and Expenses
    The Personal Object Worklist (POWL) for travelers lists the travel requests, travel plans, and expense reports (travel expenses) for each individual traveler. Travelers run applications from within the POWL; for example, to create a new travel plan using the data from a travel request, or to change the expense report. Travelers also can launch the applications for creating travel requests, travel plans, and expense reports, directly in ESS.
    My Employees
    The POWL for travel assistants lists the travel requests, travel plans, and expense reports for all employees assigned to the assistant. Travel assistants can perform tasks such as creating and changing travel plans for employees, and copying travel plans from other employees.
    Create Travel Request
    Create Travel Plan
    Create Expense Report (Create Travel Expense Report)
    My Travel Profile
    Route Planning
    Unlock Personnel Number
    If certain conditions are given, you can implement the new Web Dynpro ABAP application for the following standard role in Manager Self-Service (MSS):
    Approving Manager
    To implement this new application in SAP Enterprise Portal, you need to provide an iView.
    This application enables you to perform the approval process without SAP Business Workflow and Organizational Management. For more information, see the section that follows.
    New User Interface: SAP NetWeaver Business Client (NWBC)
    Users can run the following role-based Web Dynpro ABAP applications in the NWBC, independent of the new standard roles assigned to those users:
    Traveler
    The POWL and applications are the same as the My Trips and Expenses application in SAP Enterprise Portal. The POWL also provides access to the applications My Travel Profile, Route Planning, and Unlock Personnel Number.
    Travel Assistant
    The POWL and applications are the same as the My Employees application in SAP Enterprise Portal. The POWL also provides access to the applications My Travel Profile (for all employees), Route Planning, and Unlock Personnel Number (for all employees).
    Approving Manager
    The POWL for approving managers lists the travel data requiring approval for all employees assigned to the manager. Approving managers can approve or reject expenses, and send explanatory comments to the employees via e-mail.
    The POWL enables approving managers to define substitutes for limited periods of time, and to act as a substitute for other approving managers.
    Travel Policy Administrator
    Users with this role can execute the following Customizing applications for managing travel policy:
    Change Predefined Addresses
    Define Maximum Rates and Default Values for Expense Types
    Define Maximum Amounts for Hotel Nights
    Define Hotel Catalog
    Define Customer Programs
    Define Agreements Between Travel Service Providers on Customer Programs
    Integration of Travel Requests and Travel Planning
    The areas of travel requests, travel planning and expense reports are fully integrated in the new Web Dynpro ABAP user interface. Users can copy the following travel data:
    When creating travel plans, users can copy data from their travel requests. When users create a new travel plan, the system displays a list of open travel requests, from which users can copy data to the new travel plan.
    When creating expense reports, users can copy data from their travel requests or travel plans. When users create a new expense report, the system displays a list of open travel requests and travel plans, from which users can copy data to the new expense report.
    The POWL of each user shows the status of the user's trips and provides users with easy access to the subsequent actions that are possible (for example, once a travel request is approved, the user can choose Create Travel Plan).
    Integration of Travel Services and Travel Preferences in Travel Requests
    In travel requests, you can specify which travel services are required for the following modes of travel (but you cannot reserve or book them here):
    Flight
    Hotel
    Car rental
    Rail
    Other travel services
    For more information, see the section that follows.
    The system displays the preferences of a traveler based on his or her travel profile. At a later date, you can transfer the data a travel request to a travel plan, and book your trip. Alternatively, you can transmit the travel request to a travel agency, which then books the trip for you.
    Other Travel Services
    In travel requests, you can now specify (but not reserve or book) other travel services. Other travel services include the following:
    Ferry
    Helicopter
    Airport shuttle
    In Customizing you determine which other travel services are displayed and which entries can be made by users. See Other Travel Services.
    Copying of Travel Requests
    Users can copy travel requests. Travel assistants can copy travel requests of one traveler for another traveler, and edit the new request. (Both travelers need to be on the employee list of the travel assistant.)
    Saving of Drafts of User Entries
    The Save Draft function allows users to temporarily save your entries in the applications (except in travel travel planning). The system saves the incomplete entries with the status Open.
    Expense Types per Schema
    To each schema, you can assign those expense types that need to be available in the respective schema. If you do not specify any expense types for a schema, then all expense types stored in the system apply to that schema. You can use this function to create a schema for miscellaneous receipts, which enables employees to enter receipts that are not directly related to a specific trip. These might be expenses for phone costs, office supplies, or promotional gifts on behalf of consultants or sales staff. See Restrict Travel Expense Types for Trip Schemas.
    This function is also available in SAP GUI.
    Advanced Passenger Information
    In travel plans, you can enter additional passenger data for Advanced Passenger Information System (APIS). When a flight is booked, this data is transmitted to the airlines via a Global Distribution System (GDS). In Customizing, for each country key you can determine whether travelersare required to enter APIS data, and which data items are required. See Define Data for Advanced Passenger Information System.
    This function is available only in the new Web Dynpro ABAP user interface.
    Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance
    The following functions have been extended to ensure audit ability of statutory rules, such as those prescribed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act:
    Credit Card Receipts in Expense Reports
    You can define in Customizing that users cannot delete credit card receipts. See the field documentation under Set Up Feature TRVPA for Travel Expenses Parameters.
    In expense reports, you can itemize your private expenses as separate receipts and allocate them to private expense types (for example, use of mini-bar). This documents the personal portion of expenses in the system.
    Additional Receipt Information in Expense Reports
    When entering expenses, you can specify internal and external participants of an entertainment event in the form of a table under additional receipt information. You can evaluate this information in reporting. In Customizing, for each trip provision variant and expense type, you can determine whether users are required to enter such participants. See Field Control for Additional Receipt Information.
    These enhancements are also available in SAP GUI.
    Use of Scanned Receipts and Adding of Attachments
    If you use optical archives for Travel Management, in expense reports you can display receipts that are scanned into the system. When scanned receipts are allocated to an expense report, the system shows them in the POWLs for travelers, travel assistants, and approving managers.
    Travelers can add attachments to their expense reports (for example, the agenda of a convention). This can be done when creating an expense report or in the POWL. Attachments are linked to the trip number and can be viewed by travel assistants and approving managers.
    Enhancements in Flight Reservations
    Flight reservations have the following new functions:
    You can determine whether the Amadeus reservation system should apply Value Pricer or Master Pricer in fare-driven flight availability queries. You do this with the MASTERPRICER attribute in table TA20SWITCH. See Define Enterprise-Wide Control Parameters.
    The system sorts best-price query results by price, but groups different flight combinations that have the same price. Within these groupings, you can select any combination of outbound and return flights.
    If you have set up a direct connection to a flight reservation system such as TRAVELfusion (in addition to GDS), the system shows the available flights for both reservation systems in the fare-driven flight availability list.
    Enhancements in Bookings at Deutsche Bahn (German Railway)
    Train reservations using NVS (Amadeus) have the following new functions:
    You can book tickets for multiple passengers. You can specify whether each individual passenger has a BahnCard. For international trips, you can enter the age of each passenger, for example, to receive a discount for people under the age of 26.
    You can book tickets, reserve seats, or both.
    When booking a trip, you can request a Bahn-Tix. Then, prior to departure you can pick up the train ticket at any DB ticket machine for intercity rail traffic. At the ticket machine you can identify yourself with your BahnCard, credit card, Eurocheque card, or the order number shown in the booking data.
    Enhancements for Hotel Reservations
    You can sort hotels according to different criteria such as price, star rating, or distance from the address.
    Generic XI Interface to Rail Portals
    As an alternative to using a global distribution system (GDS) to include rail connections in Travel Planning, you can instead use rail portals for this purpose. Using SAP NetWeaver Exchange Infrastructure (XI), Travel Planning provides a generic interface for connections to rail portals. One such connection is the Deutsche Bahn Corporate Portal (also referred to as Bahn Internet Booking Engine = BIBE).
    Generic XI Interface to Flight Reservation Systems
    As an alternative to using a global distribution system (GDS) to include flights in Travel Planning, you can instead use flight reservation systems for this purpose. Using SAP NetWeaver Exchange Infrastructure (XI), Travel Planning provides a generic interface for connections to flight reservation systems. This enables you to book flights with low-cost carriers (LCC) and Web fare deals on the Internet. Travel Planning displays the offers of flight reservation systems as part of the fare-driven flight availability list, together with offers from a GDS.
    Enterprise Services
    Report programs and BAdIs (Business Add-ins) are available for the new Enterprise Services for the following process components:
    Expense and Reimbursement Management
    Travel Management
    Business Data Management
    Personnel Administration
    For more information, see HCM_SRV_CI_1: HCM, Enterprise Services 01 (New).
    Effects on Existing Data
    You can continue using existing travel data without restrictions.
    Effects on Customizing
    The following IMG activities are new:
    If you want to implement the other travel services in the Travel Request component, perform the IMG activities under Travel Request.
    To adjust the processes for the integration of rail portals, use the Business Add-in (BAdI) Adjust Processes for Integration of Rail Portals.
    To configure APIS, perform the IMG activities Define Data for Advanced Passenger Information System and BAdI: Adjust Creation of APIS Elements.
    To assign expense types to schemas, perform IMG activity Restrict Travel Expense Types for Trip Schemas.
    The following IMG activities have been extended:
    To define that users may not delete credit card receipts, perform IMG activity Set Up Feature TRVPA for Travel Expenses Parameters.
    To extend the additional receipt information with the participants in entertainment, perform IMG activity Field Control for Additional Receipt Information.
    To use Master Pricer, perform IMG activity Define Enterprise-Wide Control Parameters.

  • Disable Create Expense Report in Ref. to Travel Request

    hi everyone,
    In the SAP Customizing, I deactivate the integration of Travel Request with Travel Expense to avoid creating expense report from travel request.
    But I still have in the Web Dynpro service, the possibility to select a travel request every time we create an expense report.
    Is that something wring? How to disable this travel request list every time we create an expense report?
    Thanks a lot!

  • FITE_EXPENSES  -- Available Travel Requests / Plans

    Hi Experts,
    I've got a question concerning the creation of travel expenses and the data acquisition of the respective travel request. Let's say I've sent a Travel Request and it has been approved by the respective approver, i.e. status of the process is "approval" and status of approval is "approved". Now, in the scenario "All my Trips" the user can choose the tabs for travel requests and click on the link "Create" in Tab "Travel Expenses", so the travel request is used as a data template for the travel expense sheet. All is good.
    Alternatively, for some requests posted, at the 'entry screen' of the scenario FITE_EXPENSES, there's a list "Available Travel Requests / Plans" which apparently shows some, but not all travel requests available.
    Now my question is: Where does the generic alv-grid "Available Travel Requests / Plans" get its items from? I've plunged deep into FITV_FPM to find some clues but couldn't fin anything out, it's just too generically programmed...
    The way it is now, there is a redundancy/inconsistency between all my trips --> travel requests, and FITE_EXPENSES --> Available Travel Requests / Plans. This bothers me, because it will be annoying for the end user...
    I hope somebody can clear this up ;-/
    Cheers, Lukas

  • ESS  Travel request

    Hi
    How do i setup ESS travel request ? on ECC 6.
    Thanks
    Rendani

    Hi
    Functionally there are various approaches. Standard SAP provides three components
    1.Travel request
    2.Travel Plan
    3.Travel expenses.
    Out of these 3, Travel plan is complex as it includes configuring all type of travels ( air, rail, hotel etc), integrate with Global travel agencies, mapping etc.
    To start with, users would prefer to raise a simple travel request, which triggers a w/flow for approval, once approved go for an external site for travel booking ( travel plan in SAP terms). On completion of trip, raise expenses through ESS.
    Use, TRIP transaction to play around with travel requests and Expense reports.
    Another imp step is to copy standard Travel schema to customize as per yr company's business.
    A combination of R/3 & ESS roles will help access to Travel on Portal.
    If this helps, pl do reward.
    Thanks

  • Error while creating a Travel Request

    Hi All,
    EP 7,ESS/MSS 1.0
    We have a issue in Creating Travel Request in Portal.
    Once we fill all the required entries to create a travel request and click the review button it pops a message saying " Errors have been discovered when checking the Expense Report. Please correct them in order to proceed." .
    When i check the same in backend using the tcode- TRIP, we are able to create the travel request.
    Can some one tell me where we are going wrong and is there any configuration at backend to be done still.
    Thanks,
    NR

    Hi NR
    Ensure that all the variant are properly integrated between Travel & Expenses.
    Also, for testing, removing the integration and test if the pop-up comes back.
    If this helps, pl do reward.

  • Portal runtime error on creating Travel Request

    I have copied the standard ESS Role and created my own ESS Role. I then assigned this to my portal user.
    Then when I log into the portal as the user and click on "Create Travel Request" or "Create Expense Report" URLs, I get the following error:
    Portal runtime error.
    An exception occurred while processing your request. Send the exception ID to your portal administrator.
    Exception ID: 04:53_02/02/10_0021_23623650
    Refer to the log file for details about this exception.
    Is there any portal/IMG setup that is missing? Or any authorization missing?

    Thanks I made changes to Resources node in IMG.
    Before making these changes I was getting the following error:
    Portal Runtime error. An exception occured while processing your request... Exception ID:.... Refer to log for details....
    I just changed the URL of PCD page in the Resources node.
    Note:
    (1) In Portal I have made my own folder structure:
    -> Portant Content
    -->My Travel Setup
    --->Employee Self-Service
    >Roles
    >MyTravelESS (role copy of the original Portal ESS role, Delta link. i.e. ESS role under End User Content-->Employee Self-Service)
    (2) I have not copied the iviews, pages worksets etc. under my new folder structure.
    But Now I am getting another error:
    500 Internal Server Error...
    Root Cause
    The initial exception that caused the request to fail, was:
    com.sapportals.portal.prt.runtime.PortalRuntimeException: Failed in WD JNDI lookup. javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: No child found in WebDynproContext with name base
