Approve own travel expenses

[Former Member]

Hi expert,

I have an issue about authorizations in Travel Management.

A user can approve his own travel expenses, although he does not have the role of the manager.

In the HR master data (transaction PRMD) I have entered in the System user name in the communication TAB.

I thought that this would prevent users to approve their own travel expenses (because a check is made).

I have tested it with my own user and I get the message "users cannot approve their own expenses".

Do you have any experience with this matter?

Thank you.

Kind regards,

Linda

This is probably controlled via authorizations. You can have your authorization person do an authorization check on your user, which is prohibited from approving your own trips. This should display the authorizations being checked for your user. Then see if the problem user has this authorization setup correctly.
