Change descriptions of Recommended Actions on trips in ESS

We use ESS for travel expense reporting. On the My Trips and Expenses page, we are looking for a way to change the descriptions that appear under the u201CRecommended Actionsu201D column to reflect our actual business processes. For example, if the expense report is disapproved, our workflow will change the trip status to u201CTrip on hold/Openu201D, however in ESS the description under Recommended Actions is u201CChange Approved Travel Expense Reportu201D. We would like to change the description to u201CChange Disapproved Travel Expense Reportu201D.

The only way we have found to do this would be through a modification, however, we want to avoid this if all possible. Is there any other way to do this?

Thanks,

Rich

Objection! (Yet again :-P)

I managed solving the problem OP has by implicitely enhancing at the end of FM "PTRM_WEB_TRIPS_GET_LIST". Exporting table et_trips contains all the information given to the POWL later and the field you need to alter is SUPPOSABLY_STATUS.

Cheers, Lukas

Hi Rich

It isnt really reccommended to change the label texts as there can be some underlying processes that can be impacted so you are correct, the only way to achieve this is through modification and content administration. (Preview and ctrl and right click to change labels etc)

Please have a look at the KBA 1571877 for more info or the wiki page below

Hope its useful for you.
