Posting Mileage to two G/L Accounts

[Private_Member_78463]

Hello experts,

I need help or ideas with the following requirement: customer requires users to enter mileage expenses based on which G/L account the posting should be (reimbursement is through FI-AP). There is only a single, flat-rate mileage reimbursement field in expense entry screen; is there a way to select or split this in the expense entry screen?

Here are my ideas for work around:

1. Journal Entry after posting (undesirable)

2. I am aware of cost distribution on Trip Segment tab, but this can't be used to split to G/L Accounts?

3. Create an expense type for Mileage where user would enter a whole amount

4. Create a separate trip provision variant where this is setup and assigned to user's master data

Here is the field I am talking about:

I appreciate any feedback!

Hi Nick,

I have used #3 as my customer had similar requirement which works completely fine  when the

mileage rate calculation remains same for all (as per user input) categories of employees .eg. CEO, VP, normal employee population etc.
