Talent Management - PDF Docs IMG Config Step

Hello,
We are having some issues with the configuration step u201CAssign Application Forms to Elements of PDF-Based Documentsu201D.
Here are the steps we have taken so far:
1) Copied the Application Forms from Client 000 (HRTMC_RM_COVER, HRTMC_RM_TALENT_AGENDA_TOPIC, HRTMC_TALENT_PROFILE, HRTMC_TALENT_SHORT_PROFILE) to our Sandbox & Development Clients
2) Set u2018Use Complex Bundlingu2019 to u201Ctrueu201D via FPCONNECT (SM31)
3) Attempted to add the different u201CParameter valuesu201D HRTMC values (specified above) to the IMG config step assign application forms to elements of pdf-based docs
When trying to complete #3, we receive an error u2018enter a valid valueu2019. I checked both the Application Forms and the Forms Class and these objects exist, and are active. We even re-transported the objects to see if that was the problem, but it did not work.
Any thoughts to why we are receiving this message?

Can anyone tell me how doea the portal talent management configuration work???

Import Visa Credit Card Transaction into SAP HR Travel Management

Hi Team,
I am new to SAP HR Travel Management. My client supplies the Visa credit cards to their employees for corporate transaction use.
These are reimbursed to the employee and not paid by the company..meaning that the employee needs to pay the amount to the credit card companies.
I have seen some config steps such as
1 ) we need to assign Transaction Keys to each expense types.
What does this means.. we have 10 diff expense types such as Lodging, AIrfare, Meals, and others. Where do we get the transaction keys from and is it unique to each expense type. Who will provide the transaction Keys. Is it client or visa card company?
2) Need to convert the Visa file to SAP format.
What do we need to do. I have seen their visa file and it has 54 columns ...I am unable to understand how this can be mapped in SAP.
Please let me know what details I need to know from the client.
Looking forward for your help.
Regards,
SAP HCM

Some of the mappings are obvious:
Visa A     Your lodging
Visa R     Your Rental car/Gas/Park/Toll
Visa M     Your Personnal meals
The rest are not so obvious. For that reason, we gave our credit card provider's transaction keys to Accounts Payable and asked them to map to our company's list of expense keys. Based on their response, we mapped the incoming transaction keys to our expense types.
You will find the majority of incoming expenses are going to be mapped to 'Other' transaction key. For that reason, we had to set up an expense type TMIS to map 'Other' transaction key to. In the expense report, TMIS expense type defaults when the ee pulls the expense from the credit card buffer. But we prevent the ee from saving an expense report with expense type TMIS on it. In other words, the ee is forced to choose a 'real' expense type from the drop-down list. Accounts Payable does not accept expense reports with miscellaneous receipts. Where and how this is done, I can't answer as I am not an ABAPer. I suspect it occurs in a user exit. Procedurally, managers are supposed to look for miscellaneous receipts if one somehow escapes the system check. Accounts Payable also makes this an audit point in their procedure.
Depending on the TPV, our ees have 40-60 expense types from which to select when they add a receipt to an expense report. Accounts Payable wants a more granular breakdown of expenses and they are the source of the expense types we configured. For example, where you have Rental car/Gas/Parking/Tolls in your company, we have 4 expense types, one for each receipt type.
A word of caution: Make sure Visa really truly only has 8 transaction keys. We thought that same thing about MasterCard. Then we began receiving expenses with other transaction keys. The initial list they provided as the most commonly used transaction keys.   We finally got an entire list of their transaction keys and they have more than 8 or 10. Saves lots of rework...one transaction key at a time.

SAP Travel Management Integration with Time Management

Hello Gurus,
Need some assistance with Travel integration with Time Management.
Scenario.
Punch in Punch out system at the client so when the employee is traveling or when he enters the Trip Request, after approval the attendance should be counted.
Is there a config step for the same or a BADI needs to be implemented in this scenario ?
Regards,
BLITZZ

A direct update of time infotypes is not possible. You can however switch on the integration in view V_T702N_A. With add. user parameter START_CATS = X you have the possibility to jump to CAT2 to record the time. For the update of the infotypes you have to follow the subsequent steps in time management.

1.Screen level customization - Where you can hide, remove, add UI elements using this kind of customization.
2. Code level customization - Used basically for application level logic change.
3. SPRO Config customization - This is based on the business requirements and type of fuctionality to be enabled for end users.

Blank Tax Code in Travel Management

Hi all,
Is it possible to define a blank tax code (no tax input) in Travel Management? It is a required field in the config and I can't seem to leave it blank. My FI consultant is telling me that it is a SAP standard where if it is blank it means there is no tax input.
Please help.
Regards,
Eric

Hi,
I can't select "no input tax" from V_706D_B as I also have some expense type that have input tax. According to my FI consultant, a blank in the tax code means it is not applicable to tax. But in Travel Management, I cant put in a blank in the tax code. Is there a way to put blank for the tax code or I have to define a "No Input Tax" tax code?
Regards,
Eric

Question about POWL in Travel Management

Greetings!
currently, we are in the process of implementing SAP Travel Management on our DEV System (Request and Expenses) and therefore of designing business processes. One major crucial point is the process of Approving the Travel Request.
We are on ECC 6.0 EHP 4 and therefore use the WD4A Travel Scenarios. We use a portal ess/mss with respective Stacks/SPs and BPs.
Business Process Draft A:
The Traveler is filling out his Travel Request (FITE_REQUEST) and is assigning the relevant cost centers himself (they are initially defaulted to IT0001, but IT0001, as per our definition, isn't nessecarily correct always; thus, manually cost center assignment possible).
When the Travel request is sent for approval, the Manager who is responsible for the cost center chosen in the request has to be chosen as the approver. If there is more than one cost center, there will still be only one approver. There hasn't be decided yet, who, in that case will be it, but this is of none concern for my particular question at the moment.
For the first step to do I would naively say "I make a POWL query with an own POWL feeder class saying 'Assign all Users to me, which travel for a certain cost center' ". Would this be possible?
Now, let me explain what I am unsure about, concerning the following use-case:
1. Traveler creates a request on 28th of February 2012 for the Date range of 1st of March 2011 till 3rd of March, choosing Cost Center A so the Request should be visible to Manager A for Cost Center A. Traveler is assigned to Manager A's POWL. Manager A can see the traveler from 28th of February onwards.
2. Traveler creates yet another request on the 28th of February 2012 for the Date range of 7th of March till 10th of March,
choosing Cost Center B so the Request should be visible to Manager B for Cost Center B. Traveler is supposedly assigned to Manager B's POWL. Manager B can see the traveler from 28th of February onwards.
Question: What happens to the POWL? Who can see what
Manager A must only see travel request from cost center A.
Manager B must only see travel request from cost center B.
What I assume will happen is:
- Both Managers can see both travel requests because both managers have User Traveler assigned, which is forbidden due to business restrictions...
Any Ideas, solutions, discussions are welcomed.
Best regards,
Lukas

nzworld, thanks for your idea. However this is not possible because the relation of user to cost centers to approvers can be
1 - n - n.
After the feedback here, talking back to my colleagues and debating this with our consultants, we will not be using POWL for our approval process, because it's simply not flexible enough for our cause. Closing thread.

Hi Rajagopalan,
Thanks a lot for your prompt reply. So sorry for mentioning the incorrect BAPI.
The FM 'Swk_Wi_Container_Read' provides the trip number and employee number as part of container element table field, given the work item as input. There are five rows in container element table, only 3 fields are populated which are extended, note reference and trip. Trip number and employee number are not populated.
Is this because there is some binding problem issue? i have checked the steps and binding, but no luck.
Your inputs are highly appreciated.
Thanks & regards,
Rizwana

Consolidation of Travel Management

Hi Experts
We are busy investigating the possiblility of Consolidating Travel Management from 4 different countries onto a single client.
One of the problems we are facing is that they are not all linked to the same GDS and one doesn't even use Travel Planning.
Is it possible to configure multiple GDS's on a single client using features to distinguish between them?
All info,thoughts and responses are appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Anton Kruse

Hi Anton,
This is possible. Please see the IMG docu:
Define Groupings for Access to External Reservation Systems
Use
In this step, you define the groupings for accessing the external reservation systems.
This allows you to book travel services for different users and/or travelers through different sales offices and different reservation systems.

Travel Management & Funds Management integration

Hello Experts,
During creation of a travel request & when I am entering amount in "Estimated Costs" field, I am getting an error message as "Error creating commitment: Trip status has been set to 'open'. Message no. PTRA_WEB_INTERFACE098". This is due to Funds Management activation by the FICO team. My client requires budget check in Travel Management.
From my side I have created an expense type with details like:-
Short name: for example, Estimated Costs
○ Travel Expense Category: Other
○ Amounts are: Estimated Costs, No Reimbursement to Employee
Do I need to maintain symbolic & G/L for the same? Is there any other config I am missing.
Please help to solve the issue.
Regards,
Daniel

Can you check for config in V_T706B1 for Estimated Costs with name should be ESTC
you need to change it ESTC.
If you have activated the integration to funds management, the system tries to create a commitment for the entered estimated cost. For this it is necessary, as the error message says, to create an expense type for the estimated cost in V_T706B1 with the use 'Estimated Cost'.
This expense type is then inserted in the trip and later on, when your create the expense report, you are forced to delete this
expense type again.
If you have the funds management active, you need to go to maintainance view V_T706B1 and create an expense type for which you choose out of the 'special use' drop down box the value 'extimated cost, no reimbursement'.
This was new functionality with ERP2005 but this is unusual as almost all PTRA_WEB_INTERFACE174 or error messages as you see are the result of incorrect definition of estimated cost in V_T706B1 - is there an entry for this in V_T706B4 by any chance that would cause the inconsistency?
Hope this could help!
Thanks
