External Person (third party) for Travel Request & Expense

Hi experts,
We have situation where Company want to record travel expense for third party.
for example, we want to do a business trip that invite people from government/ civil servants.
all travel expense of civil servants will be accounted by our company.
but, they are not our employee.
is it possible to get some external person ID for third party so they can be treat as employee just for recording travel transaction??
Our company also want maintain employee group for third party.
how to achieve this?
thanks in advance.

Hi,
thanks for your reply,
but if we have to define new sub-groups then we have to maintain other basic data.
third party's travel will be just occasionally, and sometimes it could have different people.
then, don't we have to maintain job / org unit for external person too?
is there any simple way?
thanks.

Workflow and POWL integration for Travel Request / Approval

HI,
We are on EHP7 and using POWL for different kind of Approvals.
POWL is working good for Leave Approval and we have used Workflow Task ID as : TS12300097 / TS12300116, and all leave request appearing in POWL for manager and approving them.
Now we have to use POWL for Travel Request / Travel Expense approval and need to know what Task IDs I should use to configure this under SPRO.
Few tabs / links created like Travel Req Approval / Expense Approval / Claim Approval in POWL and need to show entries in respective tabs.
Thanks

HI
Is it required to run FPB_MAINTAIN_PERS_S / FPB_MAINTAIN_PERS_M to display Travel entries in POWL screen.
2) Is it required to keep entries under "Assign Task IDs to POWL Types" in SPRO ???
ex : MANAGER_MSS_INBOX MSS_POWL_LEA_APPROVAL TS12300097
I don;t see any difference in terms of functionality even If i delete above entry, may i know the necessity of having those entries ?
Thanks

Overlapping trips (for Travel Request - TP04)

Hi, Gurus
Is there any way so that I can create 2 or more travel requests using the same period for the same employee? It would be a desirable requirement here in our company.
I know that through 'FITVFELD' transaction I can choose, for a given travel schema, if I want to allow overlapping trips (checkbox "Overlapping Trips Allowed"). But it works only for the expense reports ("TRIP" transaction) related to the schema selected. For travel request (TP04) I can't do that.
An example: with "Overlapping Trips Allowed" checked for schema A, I am able to create 2 or more expense reports (schema A) from 11/09/2010 to 11/16/2010. But if I try to create a new travel request (TP04) within this period, the system throws an error.
PS: As we know, unfortunately schema "PL" (Travel Planning) doesn't have "Overlapping Trips Allowed" checkbox... It manages some travel request parameters.
Thank you
Roberto

Hi robtaboaco ,
you can create two or more overlapping trip.
it will just give u warning if u have overlap trip. but you can still save it.
here's the link, hope it helps to explain..

Hi,
<i> can i use thchnical system type 'third party' for R3 system. will the scenario work properly or not.</i>
--- No u can't use this...Ur technical system must be "WebAS ABAP" only. For file system you use 3rd party system. means ur technical system like follows.
sender
R/3 -- WebAs ABAP
Receiver
File - 3 rd pary system
<i>And some times some of the business systems in SLD are not visible in ID, when assigning business system in ID.can any one tell reason for this.</i>
Click "Clear SLD cache" repeatly for some time in ID, it will come.

Edit HTML FORM for Travel Request in BADI

Hi Experts,
I'm trying to use the BADI FITP_REQUEST_HTML_FORM_BADIDEF to edit the HTML form for travel request.
I need to add and hide fields in tables, but I don't need to create new tables in the form.
The example is like the following:
CALL METHOD co_dd_document->add_table
    EXPORTING
      no_of_columns = 2
      width         = '350'
      border        = '0'
    IMPORTING
      table         = lo_estc_table.
set estc columns
CALL METHOD lo_estc_table->add_column
    EXPORTING
      width = '150'
    IMPORTING
      column = lo_col1.
MOVE text-t04 TO lv_text.
CALL METHOD lo_col1->add_text
    EXPORTING
      text = lv_text.
We don't need to create new tables, we need to add fields in an existing table of the form.
Somebody knows how can I do that?
I hope you can help me.
Thanks in advance.
Oscar.

Change GL account third party for Free of Charge material

Hi All,
Can you please help me with the following flow:
We have a SD order with Free of Charge item.
It is third party processing: vendor send directly to customer without
posting GR in our company.
The COS is posted to a wrong G/L account. How can I change the G/L account, but only when a FOC item is processed?
Thank you,
Eric.

Hi Eric,
Although I do not have much details about your business process requirement, I think you can try creating a new Movement type for such spl cases, create a new Transaction/Event key and assign it to this Mvt. type. If the FOC Materials are few, then you can also think of creating a separate Valuation Class for such materials and use this Valuation Class in OBYC.
With these settings when you use the new Mvt. type your desired GL accounts will be posted. Check before finalising your action plan.
Please let me know if you have any problems.
Hope this helps.
Cheers
Keshav

Third party for subcontractor

Hi,
Kindly help me to map below scenario:
I have 2 company codes AAAA and BBBB.BBBB is a customer to AAAA.
BBBB place a order to AAAA,AAAA in turn place an order to its sub-contracting vendor XXXX.
AAAA sends component material to XXXX and ask him to deliver the FG directly to BBBB.
Kindly let me know if I can map through third party process as vendor is subcontracting vendor.
How goods receipt is handled in this.
Please let me know if any other way to map this.
Regards,
Venkatesh

HI
Customer : BBBB , Vendor : XXXXX in Company Code : AAAAA
1. Create BBBB as a Customer with Company code AAAA
2. Raise a Sale order for the customer (BBBB) with Company Code AAAA (Like Third part Sales ). once you save the Sale order system will generate automatically PR number
3. WIth reference of PR number will raise the PO with Vendor XXXXX
4.Vendor XXXXX will delivery the Goods to BBBB
5. AAAA will raise the Bil to BBBB (Customer )
I hope you Understand

How to configure Webdynpro for ABAP Launch for Travel Request workflow UWL

Hello,
We are on SAP ECC 6 EHP4, SAP Netweaver 7.01 SP5, for portal BP1.41. When we are running travel request in this new Webdynpro for ABAP in UWL it will lead from an attachment to PR05 trx. I would think that it would gve another screen where the manager can check a travel request. Is the standard SAP solution leading to this trx. PR05? We have tried to customize the task 20000189 in SWFVISU but it doesn't give us any results.
I would appreciate if you can give me an advice whether SAP standard solution will lead to PR05 or is there any other options what we haven't discovered yet. Otherwise we have to start customize it.

Thanks in Advance

Hi Hareesh,
Thanks a lot for the help. I have tried with removing the xml namespace, still the same result. I believe, the problem is with MTs tag in response message structure, bank xml data is trying to map with the response structure in PI, but when its finding the MTs tag I believe then its not mapping, and directly its passing the response in SXMB_MONI without any mapping.
My question is how can I define my response structure without the MTs tagm, I mean same as what I am receiving from bank.
Also I tried with without any mapping in response structure, I mean I used only one Message type for "response from bank" to "response to ECC" , without xml namespace, in this case I am able to receive the response in ECC, but there is exception called "PARSE_APPLICATION_DATA Error during XML => ABAP
conversion: Response Message; CX_ST_MATCH_ELEMENT in " while receiving response, and when I go and see the logs, it says "System expected element 'MT_Response_MT940_Test'" , as its try to match with the defined structure in PI.
Please experts help me, so my question is how can I avoid the MTs tag in my response structure, I just want to define my response structure in PI same as bank is sending me the data in xml tag, without any MTs tag.
Thanks,
Farhan
