Enable field Comment for an expense type in TRIP

[Former Member]

Hello All,

I appreciate your help regarding this question.

I am doing the Travel Management Customizing for Thailand and I faced some issues.

1. I need to enable the field comment in TRIP transaction for some expense types.

2. The printout form doesn't include the header with the information about the employee number and the trip number.

This is pretty urgent.

Any hints on how to fix these issues?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Best regards,

Soumaya

Hi there

Do you mean PR05 or TRIP (PR05 contains the expense types!)  - Have you tried enabling the editor field for the expense types in V_T706B1_B (this should fit the purpose) and you can also activate the additional entry screens for the relevant trip schema in tcode FITVFELD/FITVFELD_WEB

The 2nd issue .. the header details generally should be included, cant think why it wouldnt but are you using the standard form PTRV_EXPENSE_FORM?

cheers

Hi again,

I succeeded to fix the header problem for the print preview.

There was some missing customizing.

But, I still have the problem of comments option.

I need to enable this function for all expense types for Thailand.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Hi,

Thanks for your quick replies.

In fact, for my 1st question, I have already changed the setting for the Description from Display to Optional for all the expense types in V_T706B1_B, but this is didn't fixed my problem.

I made it in the past for another country and it worked fine.

I have also tried another suggestion and I have ticked the filed 'Stopover' and 'Additional Receipt info' in table T706S for Trip schema PL. But, this didn't help neither.

Regarding the second issue, yes we are using the standard form PTRV_EXPENSE_FORM.

This is working for the other countries but not for this one.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Best regards,

Well there is no country version for Thailand so you must have copied it from another molga or else used the international accounting version (99)? Which was it in this case?

Hi Sally,

In fact, I have created a Trip version for Thailand by copy of the Chinese one.

And regarding the variant form, I have removed the customizing in PE03 feature TRVFE because I noticed that for the Chinese trip provision some customizing is done under SPRO (Create Form Variant and Create Text Modules). So I made the same for Thailand and I have to test if it fixed the issue.

However, regarding the Comment field, I still have the issue.

Thanks in advance for your valuable inputs.

There isnt a Chinese country version either.. so that must be copied from a different molga also (or the 99 international accounting one) - is it working for China?

Hi,

Sorry, my mistake.

I was talking about Trip provision variant.

I made a copy of the Chinese one and for them it is working properly.

I used program RPRTEF00 in order to check the print preview and I have the header for China but not for Thailand.

Any idea?

Thanks,

Hi

For your 1 question you need to go to SPRO and change the field status at expense type level to activate the field comment
