How to copy line items from one expense report to the next

Question

I travel to the same project/destination every week so in PR05, I was able to just copy the previous expense report for the new week and edit the expense values. Now, when I book travel, the air line booking starts a new expense report entry.
Is there a way to copy the employee-paid expenses to the GetThere-generated trip entry expense report, i.e. just copy the line items from one expense report to another that already exists. I guess that would be a merge function.

Answer 1

Hi Tom,
Here are two alternative solutions:
Alternative 1:
If you copy the expense report before you book the services (flight, hotel …)
in GetThere, then the airline or hotel bookings will not start a new expense
report but will be assigned to the copied expense report.
Alternative 2:
This alternative is a bit laborious.
Shift the start date and end date of the expense
report  that was automatically created by
your flight booking for next week (e.g. Calendar Week (CW)  47) to the week after next week (e.g. CW 48).
Copy the expense report of the previous week (e.g.
46)
Afterwards open the expense report that you
moved to CW 48 and click on the tab strip itinerary
Now assign the bookings (flight, hotel …) to the
expense report of CW 47 by clicking on the button assign to existing trip
Later delete the expense report in CW 48
Get back to me if you have any questions concerning the alternatives outlined
above.
