We are currently configuring SAP T&E for Mexico travelers in our company. Mexico (or our company?) has a requirement that expense amounts in excess of specified daily amounts be posted to a different GL account. In our company, Mexican travelers do not receive per diem allowances. However, they do have maximum amounts for hotel, rental car, and meals on trip in Mexico and outside of Mexico.
We configured the maximum amounts for those expense types. Then on the expense type, we defined a primary GL account and a secondary GL account. Expenses below the maximum daily allowance post to the primary GL account; excess amounts over the maximum post to the secondary GL account.
We are using web dynpro for entry of expense reports in MX. The functionality I described above works perfectly for rental car and meals. For both of these expense types, posting of excess amounts to the 2nd GL account works. The same is not true for hotel excess amounts. I have submitted an OSS request that has been in progress for about 3+ weeks now.
If you are using transaction TRIP for creation of the expense report, all 3 expense types post to both primary and secondary accounts. It is only on the web and only with hotel receipts in excess of the daily amount that there is a problem.
