PRFI - Error

Question

Hello Gurus,
When I execute PRFI, I get the following error
ALE receiver determination failed, no RFC destination maintained  
Can anyone please provide some input on this issue?  I am new to travel management module, so not sure what to check in SM59. 
Thanks,
Ram

Hi,
Please look at the documentation (especially "Prerequisites"):                                                                               
-> Transaction SALE                                                         
   -> Application Link Enabling (ALE)                                       
      -> Modelling and Implementing Business Processes                      
         -> Predefined ALE Business Processes                               
            -> Human Resources                                              
               -> HR <-> AC                                                 
                  -> Coding Block                                           
Coding Block                                                                               
The coding block is an Accounting service. When posting transactions are    
effected, it can be used to enter account assignments whose validity is     
then checked.                                                                               
The manner in which the coding block occurs in posting transactions         
never changes (subscreen). In the HR application, this is the case for      
time recording, travel expenses, master data, and construction pay. The     
following fields are available:                                                                               
- Company code                                                             
- Business area                                                            
- Cost center                                                              
- Order                                                                    
- Cost object                                                              
- Activity type                                                            
- Funds center                                                             
- Commitment item                                                          
- Fund                                                                     
- Sales order and item                                                     
- WBS element                                                              
- Network and operation number                                                                               
The checks performed for the coding block are integrated with the cost      
distribution infotypes (0027 in Payroll, and 1018 in Organizational         
Management). The following account assignments are possible:       
- Company code and/or controlling area                                 
- Cost center                                                          
- Order                                                                
- WBS element                                                          
- Funds center                                                         
- Fund                                                                               
Additional account assignments can be checked locally, or in an         
Accounting system via synchronous remote access. This system must       
include master data for all of the account assignment fields entered.                                                                               
Distribution Model Maintenance                                                                               
To ensure communication between systems for validation purposes, you    
must call the Maintain Distribution Model step and enter the following  
for Add Method:                                                                               
-> Client: HR System                                                   
-> Server: Accounting System                                           
-> Object: AcctngServices                                              
-> Method: CheckAccountAssignment                                      
-> Filter object: Company code                                                                               
An entry in the distribution model ensures that account assignments can 
be checked in the Accounting System for all HR transactions that use    
the coding block. If account assignments in the Accounting System can   
be replicated in the HR System (that is, cost centers, internal orders, 
and WBS elements), you are advised to set up the Local Validation for   
Coding Block function. If a line item includes an account assignment    
that cannot be checked locally, the entire line item is checked in the  
Accounting System. Checks are also performed remotely if you do not     
configure the local check function for coding blocks.                                                                               
Prerequisites                                                                               
If you want to use the company code filter object in the distribution   
model, customizing data for the company code must be replicated in the  
HR System.                                                                               
>> All master data for which the input help function is     <<        
  >> required to display valid values must be replicated      <<        
  >> in the HR System. WBS elements must also be replicated   <<        
  >> so that they can be entered in an HR System.             <<
