Create Expense Report - "Master Travel Company" error

[Former Member]

Hello everyone,

I´m using the "Create Expense Report" funciton, from inside SAP Portal - ESS, and I´m getting an error, AFTER creating the "expense receipts record" (for a taxi trip for instance) saying something like this in english: "The company can't be different from the master company".

I've tried a few things to fix this but still no luck.

Can somebody help?

Thanks!

Hi Recardo,

The error is because of two different cost center has been maintained in the employee master data. Pl maintain the cost center which is it001 in it0027. Or else pl maintain the cost center in it27 which is pertainig to that company code if cost center is not present in it001

Thanks,

Nandagopal, thanks for the answer!

The Cost Center is maintained in it001. It0027 is not in use. Should it be? If so, what sub-type?

I was able to see that the field COMPANY was excluded from it17, do you think this could be the problem? (I´m currently asking the HR people to put the COMPANY field back on it17 in order to check).

Thanks!

The problem was the COMPANY field was DISABLED in InfoType 0017.
