Change Expense Report in FITV_POWL_TRIPS Application

Hi,
In my workflow, i would like to call the change expense report in FITV_POWL_TRIPS application.
In FITV_POWL_TRIPS Application, it shows all the expense reports and if user wants to Change, then need to press the CHANGE button which shows in the ALV control, in turn calling the SALV_WD_TABLE webdynpro component.
I would like to know which page or iview do i need to call in my workflow, for Change expense report?
Regards

Hi,
the buttons in FITV_POWL_TRIPS always jump to the original Ressources of your Backend's Homepage Framework, apparently somewhere is hardcoded these original sap ressources are used. If you can't, for whatever reasons, use the original ressource for the respective PCD-URL, you have to enhance/modify the respective method in WD4A...
I couldn't find out myself when we tested Travel Management on our sandbox system. I wager there's some method for ALV-Grid Designing... if you happen to find out, let me know
If you can, take my advice and use the original ressources.
best regards, Lukas

Change Expense report default to Save and Send

I have been looking for a way to override the default in an expense report to be the Save and Send radio button instead of the Save radio button.
I have worked within the configuration and the FITE_EXPENSES webdynpro configuration, but cannot identify any area to change this. Has anyone been able to override this SAP standard default to go to Save and Send?
JLM

There is no setting in standard to make "save and send" the default setting, but how about the option of also hiding the 'save' radio button via the content administration, that is one possibility?
I also saw a suggestion to add modificationby adding an implicit enhancement implementation before the end method statement of the mehtod CONFIGURESAVESTATUS of the component controller of view fite_vc_review. example
for the enhancement:
elem_generaldata->set_attribute(
      exporting
        name = `SETTL_STATUS`
        value = cl_fitv_constants=>gc_settled_status_requested ).
Of course this is a modification however..
Also check your setting for tcode PE03 for feature TRVPA for WRP, here you can select various status' on save"
The documentation in PE03 explains more
"Entry "WRP" for Employee Self-Service:
The entry "WRP" allows you to control the dialog for saving a trip. The
settings apply to the Employee Self-Service (ESS). With some statuses, a
distinction must be made between the process steps "Temporary Save" and
"Save and Send."
Hope these suggestions help.

Changes to Create expense report

Hi everyone!
Could anyone fill me up on how to change the "create expense report" standard application hosted on in portal(Java). I have no experience on Netweaver studio. a step-by step procedure to change some basic functionalilty will help.
Thanks!

check the note 1977668 Web: country & region as separate fields Apply the note and make the entry in TA20SWITCH view as described. in the Webdynpro application you can choose: - either you take the combined dropdownbox for all country / region combinations - or you can take the seperate fields but then you must have for all countries an entry with region space.

How to view changes to expense reports

I am trying to find a way of viewing changes to an Expense Report.
In PR05 there is a history but it does not provide details about the change. I have also looked at PRTE and cluster AEND but again this does not provide the details that our business users require.
Does anyone know if there is any other way of viewing the detail of changes to an Expense Report?
On a related issue we have found that in PR05 the approver name is showing as the workflow user rather than the user ID of the person who approved the trip in the Portal. Can this be changed to the actual approver ?
Thanks for any help with this
Stephanie

Hi,
I think T-code PRTE provides only screen level changes (i.e who , when creates, save or updates by whome)
For detail level changes in expense reports you need to activate Define History and Archiving of Forms
V_T702N_R26_R27
Please note that this is ONLY available with EHP5 BC 605 FIN_TRAVEL_3
Following is help available
_________________________________________________________________________Use
In this step, you can activate the following functions:
History
If you activate logging of history, the system logs the changes to travel requests and expense reports. Users can display the history in the following user interfaces:
Personal object worklists (POWL) for travelers, assistents, and approving managers on the Web Dynpro ABAP-based user interface of Travel Management
Transactions of the travel expense report in SAP GUI; for example, in the Travel Expense Manager (transaction PR05) or in the Travel Calendar (transaction PR02)
If you do not activate logging of history, the system automatically logs the changes made to expense reports (as in earlier releases). Users can display the change history only in the transactions of the travel expense report in SAP GUI.
Storage of Travel and Expense Forms in the Archive
If you have activated logging of history, you also can define that the travel request forms and expense report forms are to be automatically archived when certain events occur. You can determine which of the following events triggers the archiving of a form:
When processing of a changed travel request or expense report is handed over from the user who makes the change to another user
When the status of the travel request or expense report changes
When a user saves the travel request or expense report
You can archive the Adobe PDF forms or HTML forms for travel requests and expense reports, but not the forms for travel plans. If you use an ABAP list form, the system first converts this form to an HTML form and then archives the HTML form.
In the following activities you define which kinds of forms the system uses:
For travel requests, see Define Enterprise-Wide Control Parameters and attribute HTMLFORM_R_P.
For expense reports, see Travel Expenses Control (Expert View), Other Settlement, field 24.
Requirements
The following prerequisites must be met:
You have activated the updating of statistical data when trips are saved; see Define Structure of Trip Statistics.
You have made the basic settings for ArchiveLink; see Basic Customizing for ArchiveLink.
Note:
If you want to archive Adobe PDF forms, the document type PDF under Edit Document Classes must contain an entry with MIME type application/pdf.
If you want to archive HTML forms, the document type HTML under Edit Document Classes must contain an entry with MIME type text/html.
Standard settings
By default, history logging is not activated.

Internet Expenses R12 expense report notification due date change

Hi Gurus,
R12-IExpenses
Please let me know can we change the due date displayed along the right side of the notification of an Expense report submitted by an Employee in I Expenses?
Is there a setup for that?
Also could you say if there is any out of the box feature to send reminder notification to the approver after certain days of inactivity?
Thanks,
Sayan

The due date for the notification is controlled by the timeout property on WF definition, you have to open the WF, find the notification and edit it.
Being R12 this likely uses AME, which has the default behavior or escalating to the next person on the hierarchy once a notification times out. You would need to edit the WF to implement the reminder via a loop with an exit condition. I think the PO (Req and/or PO approval) ones have that, you might use those as a reference.

Bapi to change travel expense report

Hi,
I am working on an program to create a travel expense report using the 'BAPI_TRIP_CREATE_FROM_DATA' FM and it is working fine.However,i am unable to change the trip created using this FM.When i use the SAP transaction TRIP,i am able to change the travel expense report created.I am passing the status approved as '3' and account as '1' in the BAPI.Is there any bapi's available to change the travel expense report created?I would appreciate any assistance.
Regards,
Rajiv C

Dear there is no standard Bapi to change the same, However there is one to delete the same( <b>BAPI_TRIP_DELETE</b>) and then you can create the same.
Why you not trying to write a new BApi to change the Trip ( as standard is not available).
See other reply there is step by step process to write a custom bapi.
Just start you will find it intersting.

Change Texts on the Submit Expense Report Screen

Hi all,
I've tried to introduce a text using new functionality provided in last upgrade "Change Texts on the Submit Expense Report Screen" in order to be displayed when an expense report is sent for approval, but it doesn't work.
Do you know if this functionality is working? If it is working properly, could you explain me how I have to configure this to display the text?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Héctor,
just checked it in the test system - it works fine. Please note that these settings may be country version spesific. To change the text:
open the fine tuning activity 'Change Texts on Submit Expense Report Screen'
click 'Add Row' in General Use block - new row added and a country version can be selected (if active), this field can be also empty - then the entry is relevant for generic country version. Optionaly provide a description.
click 'Create and Edit Texts'. Here the user can define a disclaimer text per language using 'Add Row' and entering the language as code (EN, DE etc)
at the end of activity save the changes using 'Save and Close'
Depending on country version and logon language the travelelr will see now specific dissclaimer text.
Best regards,
Alexander

Travel Expense Report - Error when changing expense type

Hi:
Our system: ESS SP7; NW2004S SP13; ECC 6.0
In the travel and expense system when the user is editing a rejected expense report - the following error is occuring.
While changing each line item in an expense report to a different category user is encountering an error. As a result all original info gets dropped out of the fields. This problem did not occur each time the expense type was changed; only twice out of the 6 or 7 lines that the user changed.
Please advice.

Hi Folks,
resolved.
It is because of posting run mgt - prrw not executed. The documents are virtually posted to FI.

Expense Report - Change or delete an address within the portal

Guru's,
When creating and expense report, we would like to be able to delete or change an existing address from the dropdown for the "Destination Address" field on the general trip screen.. When a user first comes into the expense report, the default value in the field is "New" and the "Add" and "Change" buttons to the right of the field are available. However, when the user selects a previous address from the dropdown, the change button becomes disabled and you can no longer change a prior address. In addition, is there a way to delete previous addresses from the dropdown?
Any help is appreciated,
DJG

Hello,
It is no longer possible to "delete" the address you have maintain once it is used. It will be available in the drop down menu
as a suggestion, the next time you create your travel expenses.
Cheers,
Raynard

DISPLAY/PRINT MY EXPENSE REPORTS UNDER TERA FAILS WITH THE ERROR MESSAGE

Hi Techies,
When i click on "Display/print" button under my expense report ( Employee --> Travel & expenses --> Manage Expenses (TERA) --> My trip reports), it opens up a new window with the error message "SOAP Framework error: SOAP Runtime Exception: CSoapExceptionTransport : HTTP send failed with exception communication_failure(100,101)."
This behaviour is noticed in the new upgraded system NW 701 SP7 (portal) and backend ECC 6.0 EHP4; However it works perfectly fine with our non-upgraded system NW 70 SP10 (portal) and backend ECC 6.0.
When i ran the trace on this functionality, i could notice that in the non-upgraded system, after pulling all the values, it calls the RFC function module "PTRM_WEB_FORM_HTML_GET"; however the upgraded system calls "PTRM_WEB_FORM_PDF_GET".
For the "PTRM_WEB_FORM_PDF_GET", I believe we need to configure the "ADS" rfc pointing to the ADS service on a j2ee server which am not planning for.
MY QUESTION IS:-
IS THERE ANY OPTION TO CHANGE THE FORM BEING CALLED FROM "PTRM_WEB_FORM_PDF_GET" TO "PTRM_WEB_FORM_HTML_GET" WHICH I BELIEVE WILL RESOLVE THE PROBLEM AM FACING?
Kindly assist with your thoughts!1
-GK

Read the steps on note 1032311 on how to achieve it,
In Web Dynpro, the Parameter for Formula is Defaulted to PDF file. If
you don't want to use the ADOBE Form in ESS, you have to follow 2 steps:
Solution
    o Check the Homepage framework configuration.
In IMG (transaction SIMGH) go in Travel Management->Employee Self
Service->Homepages Framework->Ressources
Delete the URL parameter "sap.xss.tra.UsePdf=true" of the ressource
"EMPLOYEE_TRAVEL_TRIPFORM_SRV05".
Check that the field URL for PCD file is filled with
ROLES://portal_content/com.sap.pct/every_user/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.bp_fol
der/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.roles/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.employee_self_service/
com.sap.pct.erp.ess.employee_self_service/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.area_trave
l_expenses/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.tripform
Normally if it is not filled in your client, the system should use the
one from client 000, that is the SAP delivered customizing.
    o Check the Portal PCD configuration
Logon on to your SAP portal as Administrator.
In the Content Administration - Portal content, select Content
provided by SAP->end User Content->Employee Self Service->iViews->Travel
and Expenses->Display Trip Form
Right Click on Display Trip Form and Select Object->Open
In the field Application Parameters, you will find a parameter
                                                                 Page 2
sap.xss.tra.UsePdf=true . Delete this line completely.
When this configuration is done, the PDF form is desactivated and the
HTML form is used.
This is the issue with ADOBE set up
Firstly, I would ask you to check the customizing steps from 944221
to ensure no issue with the ADS configuration for the pdf form.
to review OSS note 925741 as there can be a issue with the
platform validity and version.

BPM - Expense Report Tutorial

Hi,
I am a newbie to ORA_BPM. So far, Ive been able to get through (builds & deploys without errors) activity 1 thru 4 and currently having a problem when running the work-flow app.
When I use the application as Peter Jones here are my observations:
1) Login as Peter Jones (individual contributor).
1.1) create 2 expense reports - under $25 and over $25
1.2) under $25 should be initially routed to Mary White (treasurer)
1.3) over $25 should be initially route to Paul Smith (Supervisor)
2) Login as Paul Smith - nothing is shown in his WorkItems/Inbox.
2.1) The over $25 expense report should be shown here
3) Login as Mary White - both reports are shown in her WorkItems/Inbox.
3.1) When I select one of the expense reports the "ConfirmReceipts" screen has no data from either of the expense reports?
The BPM tutorial seems to have a lot of errors in it and I've found the OTN forums helpful so far.
I appreciate any help anyone can provide.
Kerry

The problem's not on your end. The tutorial needs an overhaul especially around argument mapping.
Here's what you might do to fix your project.
1. Delete the extra instance variable in your Expense Report process named "reportSF". With the process open, and the Variables tab open, right mouse click the reportSF variable and click "Delete". You had two variables "report" and "reportSF" that store the same BPM Object throughout the process. While this is allowed, you set the "reportSF" in the Begin activity, but use the "report" variable throughout the process.
2. From the menu, click "File" -> "Save All". Note that after deleting the reportSF variable from the process you now have two errors in the "Problems" tab (if you do not see the problems tab, click "Windows" -> "Reset Perspective" -> click "Ok"). Note that there are two errors. One is in the End and one is in the Begin activity.
3. To fix the error in the End activity, double click the End activity -> click the dropdown that has "reportSF" and change it to the correct variable "report".
4. To fix the error in the Begin activity, double click the Begin activity -> click the dropdown that has "reportSF" and change it to the correct variable "report".
5. There is one more argument mapping problem. The outgoing argument variable that is set coming out of your Global Creation activity called "Create Expense Report" is "reportArg" (right mouse click the "Create Expense Report" activity -> click "Main Task" -> click the "Argument Mapping" button -> in the left panel click "Submit Report Out" -> change the variable on the left to be "reportSFArg". You could have used "reportArg" for this, but your Begin activity is expecting "reportSFArg" to be the variable with the incoming information already populated.
6. From the menu, click "File" -> "Save All" again. Start your engine and try it again.

ESS Create Expense Report Modification

Hi,
we are using EP70, ERP2005 and BP 1.0 for ESS and MSS,
We are using the Web Dynpro Application "Create Travel Expense Report"
The first screen is a selection screen for "Travel Scheme"
This screen is empty and you can select a travel scheme via drop down box.
Is there a way to make one entry from the drop down box the default value rather than just "no" entry?
P.S. We do NOT have NWDI in place right now
thx
hs
PPS: Points guranteed

Hi,
I believe you need to change the source code in the webdynpro application to set one of the values as default value.
You need to set up the JDI or NWDI to change the source code. Please have a look at this SAP Note if you want to set up JDI/NWDI to change the source code.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Sunil
