PREP - Loading Per Diems

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am having a bit of trouble loading the perdiems for CONUS based on the documentation for PREP. Would anyone have any user documents for this activity?

Thanks

Hello RWW,

Using this IMG activity you can automatically import the relevant per diems for settling travel expenses according to the following U.S. methods:

Meals und Incidental Expenses

High-Low Substantiation

This makes it unnecessary for you to maintain this data manually.

In this IMG activity you can import the U.S.-internal per diems specified by the American govermental PER DIEM, TRAVEL AND TRANSPORTATION ALLOWANCE COMMITTEE as a file and update the Customizing tables for meals per diems or meals and accommodations per diems.

Requirements

The current 'Per Diem Rates' are available on the Internet in a ZIP file at perdiem.hqda.pentagon.mil/perdiem/perdiemrates.html. This ZIP file has to be unpacked with a ZIP program before import. You can then use this program to upload the unpacked file to the SAP system in this IMG activity.

After importing the per diems you should use this program to store the settings of the country and region Customizing table (T706O) to determine manual changes that have been made in this table in the meantime the next time you import per diems from the Internet. You must use this program to correct all differences between the previous and current settings in table T706O, so that unique assignment of regions to key fields in this table is possible when per diems are imported from the Internet.

The first time you execute this program you create, via menu option Create assignment, a text fiel that you then import in the step Import assignment.

Further information can be found in help.sap.com.
