Travel Schema is Not Appearing in ABAP WebDynp Travel Expense Form

Hi Experts,
We are using FIN_TRAVEL_1 business function for travel management in EHP2.
We are implementing ESS/MSS services for Travel management and corresponding workflows are working perfect.
Problem is:
Travel Req. and its Approval are working perfect but when we create Travel Expenses for the corresponding Approved
Req. - Travel Schema is Not Appearing in the ABAP webdynpro screen in ESS.
We have already activated integration of Travel Requets with Expenses in the customizing and changed the corresponding
settings in the schema also.
ABAP WebDyn in ESS is working perfect if we direct create a Stand alone Travel Expense Report. We are using only Travel Req.
and Expenses with Miles/KM cumulation. We are Not going for Travel Planning.
Pls. let me know - If any Settings are missings in "Expert View" of Travel Control or any Customizing setting is missing.
Do we have to apply some note or any BADI is there ??
Very Thanks in Advance...
Kind Regards,
Edwin

Hi there
You need to make sure that you have a trip schema that does not allow overlapping when creating expense report from approved travel request, also check the bindings for your trip schema.
I think I may have addressed this in an OSS to you earlier but also check you are using correct resource for WDABAP as delivered with 1076144
I think is why it previously worked in your java landscape if you had the trip schemas with bindings defined in the homepage framework

Error initiating travel expense form

Dear Guru's,
We have an issue displaying the Travel Expense form in ESS. We are not using the PDF forms but the HTML , no ADS has been set up and followed the exact steps mentioned in SAP Note 1032311. So we deleted the URL parameter in the URL parameter from the resource and set the PDC path as a non-static URL to the tripform. We deleted also the Iview property ....UsePDF=true.
Next we changed the setting in the Travel Management Expert View refering to Adobe Forms from 0 into 1, and we modified feature TRVFE using the SAP form PTRV_EXPENSE_FORM .
We tested the forms in trx TRIP, PR05 and PR_WEB_1200 and all results were positive since the form is displayed. However using the Iview create travel expenses the ' Error intiating trip forms' remains. The Iview My trips and expenses gives the same negative result trying to display/print the form. However the Iview display trip form seems to do something and is only given the error that the trip parameter for the pernr is missing while previewing it, which is clear since no trip has been selected.
Help needed.
Kind regards.

Please check you have the correct roles assigned for the URL in PCD path as this is a common cause of this type of error
As per the note..it needs to be;
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
Can you open it from portal in administrator mode?
Also check note 944221 to check the ADS config.

FI-TV: Printing travel expenses form

Dear experts,
If I try to print the travel expenses form (SAP ECC 6.0), the windows printers are displayed instead of SAP printers. How can I correct this?
Thank you in advance,

Hi,
Check in user settings- which default printer is set. ADjust as required.

Displaying Travel Expense form as attachment to UWL workitem

Hi experts,
We have customized the travel expense workflow that is WS20000040.
When the requestor raises a travel expense request it goes to the manager for approval in his UWL.
There by default, according to the standard functionality, when approver clicks the particular work item, he can see an attachment attached to the work item, which on clicking, leads to transaction PR05.
Within that transaction when he clicks 'Travel Details' only then he can see the PDF for travel expense form.
Our requirement is, instead of opening the transaction, the PDF should open directly as soon as the approver clicks the link.
Please help.
Regards,
Pranita

Dear Pranita
I hope you are well and many thanks for using the SAP Discussion Forums .
In relation to the scenario that you have described you mentioned the following:
You have customized the travel expense workflow that is WS20000040.
When the requestor raises a travel expense request it goes to the manager for approval in his UWL.
Your requirement is, instead of opening the transaction, the PDF should open directly as soon as the approver clicks the link.
Ok firstly a point to highlight here is have you attempted to reproduce this issue in more than one browser type? Also is compability mode currently enabled on the web browser platform that you are utlizing.
Ok in terms of background functionality and the underlying operations of this scenario the predefined actions which occurs once a workitem is clicked in the UWL depends on XML configuration or via the SWFVISU transaction. By default, the item type configuration for the corresponding work items is set to launch the expense report form.
If you analyze the UWL configuration file and the travel expense XML e.g. com.sap.pct.erp.ESS/MSS - from UWL administration page, you should be presented with the following:
** SAMPLE **
WS20000040
<ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.decision.TS20000131.ECCCLNT100" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="com.sap.pct.erp.mss.tra.view.TripApprovalView" defaultAction="com.sap.pct.erp.mss.tra.action.DisplayExpenseForm" executionMode="default">
<ItemTypeCriteria systemId="ECTCLNT140" externalType="TS20000131" connector="WebFlowConnector"/> <CustomAttributes>
You should be able to set the predefined open action here.
Also there are two key points to remember when you are working with XML files.
XML files and the UWL follow the notion of precedence. Therefore once you make a change in the UWL XML the file needs to be reuploaded with a new priority of high in order for changes to come into effect and the UWL Cache needs to be cleared.
XML files should be backed up and copied so changes can be reverted easily if required.
Kindly update me as per your findings.
Kind Regards & All The Best

Hello,
In PR05(Travel Expense Manager), there is a simulate button which will generate standard expense form with expense details.
I ran into scenario where one user group expenseform is little different from another group employees expense form. i am guessing that user group form is customized. how to identify what is behind scene form which is used.
Thanks

Thanks for your response. It seems I identified that it is using ABAP LIST forms.
I confirming that position 24 for other settlement under TRAVEL EXPENSES CONTROL (EXPERT VIEW )
Now we have issue identifying which underlying ABAP LIST Form used.
If any body has any information on this how to identify, please provide information.

Travle Mgmt : Table used: travel request & travel expenses form input !!!

HI
what are all the tables used to store the travel request details of a particular trip & advance amt / estimated cost details.
and also explain : bapi_trip_create_data_from - how we can include the advance amount when executing the bapi.
regards
Giri

Travel Request data is stored in tables FTPT_REQ* - look at:
FTPT_REQ_HEAD
FTPT_REQUEST
FTPT_REQ_ADVANCE
FTPT_REQ_ACCOUNT
FTPT_REQ_REASON
Travel Expense data is stored in tables PTRV_* and in the PCL1/TE clusters - look at:
PTRV_HEAD
PTRV_PERIO
PTRV_KMSUM
PTRV_SADD
PTRV_SCOS
PTRV_SHDR

OVD 11.1.1.5 Schema Change Not Appearing in Adapter

I updated the schema in 11.1.1.5 of OVD. I need custom attributes/object classes available for database adapter mappings. The schema screen shows the attributes and object classes as does the schema.user.xml file. The schema.user.xml file is included in the schemas under Server Settings.
The problem is that when I go to select the object class for the attribute mappings in the database adapter, the new object classes don't appear. I rebooted OVD using opmnctl and the schema changes are still not an option to select in the dropdown menu.
Any suggestions for fixing this would be great.

Hi Hamm,
The fact that you are saying that "hfm text appears using hfm url" can mean that you have not configured the workspace web server after you configured the HFM. Have you done that?
As another test, have you tried toy connect to HFM via smartview to an existing app?

Child node attributes do not appear in ABAP WD

Hi,
I have the following context hierarchy (in ABAP WD):
-Context
---Child_Node_A
Sub_Child_NodeB
AttributeE_of_Sub_Child_NodeB
AttributeF_of_Sub_Child_NodeB
AttributeG_of_Sub_Child_NodeB
Sub_Child_NodeC
AttributeH_of_Sub_Child_NodeC
AttributeI_of_Sub_Child_NodeC
AttributeJ_of_Sub_Child_NodeC
AttributeA_of_Child_Node_A
AttributeB_of_Child_Node_A
AttributeC_of_Child_Node_A
The attributes A, B, C of Child_Node_A are displayed in an ALV grid and the idea is that when the user selects a row in the ALV grid and clicks on a button, a popup is to be shown with additional details of the selected row in the ALV. In this popup, I have some fields which are mapped to the attributes E, F, G of Sub_Child_NodeB and attributes H, I, J of Sub_Child_NodeC. But when I show the popup the fields are empty.
I use a supply function in the Component Controller to fill Child_Node_A and its children, so typically when the popup appears I should see the attributes of the Sub_Child_Node B and C which are linked to the lead selection of the ALV grid (i.e.: Child_Node_A), right?
By the way, I have linked Child_Node_A from the Component Controller Context to the Context of my Main View and Popup View. Also, I checked in the INIT method of my Main view to see if after the supply function has been called the Sub_Child_Nodes attributes were still there for a given lead selection in the ALV grid and they were. But in my action handler to show the popup window from my Main view, I checked again to see if the Sub_Child_Nodes attributes were still there and they were not.
I hope I was clear enough in my explanation.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Christian

Hi Christian,
We discussed this problem offline, but I would like to give some feedback on what we found out.
(a) Since Child_Node_A had a supply function that also supplied Sub_Child_NodeB and since Sub_Child_NodeB was a singleton, it was not resupplied. The initial element originated from having Sub_Child_NodeB as 1..1 cardinality. In this case the runtime recreates an initial node element upon invalidation of the node.
(b) The second problem might be related to the ALV. As the ALV does not support child nodes being present for the data displayed, the assumption is that Sub_Child_NodeB might have been invalidated once the data was copied back from the ALV to Child_Node_A.
The solution is to have a supply function for Sub_Child_NodeB as well, which will counter any invalidation at any point in time and will restore the original data.
I am curious if (b) is really the cause of the problem described.
Best regards,
Thomas

Vendor schema group not appearing in purchasing data of Vendor sub range

Hi Experts,
I have created a vendor sub range and when maintaining the purchasing data, the vendor schema group field is not visible.
Is there any specific settings reqd. after maintaining the sub-range.
Please provide pointers!!!

HI Sandeep,
As i said this is not possible in stanadard SAP.
Even when you try opening VSR specific Purchasing data, there you will NOT get vendor schema group.
Reason is, Vendor Schema group will be maintained at Main vendor level. So irrespective of VSR, it will pick pricing procedure in the purchasiong Document.
VSR: In the vendor master, you can maintain different data for particular vendor sub-ranges, such as ordering addresses or terms of payment, for example.
When creating a purchase order with a known vendor, different data is only determined if the vendor sub-range is entered in the initial screen.
Hope this clears.

Line item data does not appear on all master pages - Adobe forms

Hi Guys,
I have a problem in Adobe forms as explained below-
I have a page in the form which has, you can say, a 2 windows or subforms ( Information window/subfirm on top right corner, main on middle of the page ). The data of the main subform is a line item data of delivery. Some parts of the same data need to be printed on the Information subform also. The main subform can overflow to next pages but the information window will have only very limited data to be printed on one page itself, meaning it does not overflow.
Now the requirement is that each line item should be printed on a new page. For example if there are 2 lines items then first line item should be printed on first page. Then there will be a conditional page break and the next line item will be printed on the next page ( I have achieved this using condition page break). The information window will contain information related to corresponding line items. If the first line item data overflows in main then information window of first line item should be printed on first and 2nd page. The second line item should start printing on 3rd page and information window of 3rd page will contain data of 2nd line item.
I created 1 body page and 1 master page. I created one internal table with data of main window and information window. I put the information window on master page to make it appear on all the pages.
This solution unfortunately does not work. The issue is that in case of overflow, 1st page information window shows first line item. 2nd pages shows 2nd line item and 3rd page is blank whereas ideally 1st and 2nd page information window should show first line item and 3rd page should show 2nd line item. This means that master page and body page are not getting linked. If I create the information window on body page itself, it does not repeat on all the pages. Please provide some inputs to resolve the issue.
Thanks
Abhi

Hi Abhinav,
I am also trying to solve the similar issue. Need to print the internal table data in the Master page.
Have you resolved this issue. Can you Please share your solution .
Thanks

Entered Verbiage not appearing in exported PDF version of form

Hello,
I have created an online application in Forms Central. It works great, but if the end-user enters too much verbiage in any of the sections, it is often cut-off in the exported PDF version. Is there a way to ensure all entered verbiage appears in the exported PDF version of the completed form?
Thank you.
-Mark

Hi,
And now you can make the field taller in the design tab, so that you can print all the text.
Or you can print the Detail view.
Please refer http://forums.adobe.com/message/5515704#5515704
Hope it will help you.

CodeColoring Not Appearing in Preferences

I have implemented a custom CodeColoring XML file for
Dreamweaver CS3. The code coloring itself is working fine. My
syntax is colored properly in code view. However, my CodeColoring
scheme does not appear in Dreamweaver's preferences. This makes it
impossible for an end-user to modify the color scheme.
Does anyone know why a particular CodeColoring scheme would
not appear in the preferences? Is there some kind of registration
required or additional XML tag required to get it to show up there?
The same CodeColoring XML file works fine in earlier versions
of Dreamweaver, including appearing in the Preferences.

Make sure that you have a unique name attribute specified. It
won't get
displayed without a name, or it may be overridden if it has a
duplicate
name.
