Wagetypes for Expense Type

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

I would like to seek your advice if the wagetypes for travel expense type need to be created in T512W like other master data wagetype? Or, can I just assign the wagetype only.

Appreciate if you can share the correct step to assign the wagetype.

Thank you,

Green

Hi,

you do not need to define the wage types if not needed for payroll issues.

The travel module (combined with FI posting) is using the wage type as a "container" only.

As Krause said, Wage type is just a container in Travel module. you can copy any wage type and use it for travle module. Expense types are mapped to Wage types, Wage types inturn are mapped to Symbolic account and Symbolic account is tagged to GL account finally.

These objects Wage types and symbolic account are used to post expenses (exp types) to GL accounts
