[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

How can commitment in CO gets generated when a travel Request is posted & when is the travel expense Actual posting updates.

Would be very much appreciated if anyone can give some inputs.

Thanks

Hi George,

Create a one Travel Expense type as "Estimated cost" and assign it to Expense GL account. Make sure this expense is not reimbursed to Employee.

After doing the above steps, Just enter any value in the Estimated cost while creating Travel Request, the system will automatically checks the budget.

This will not create any commitment item in CO, as this GL is not used for Posting (Used only in Fund Management). when Posting the Expense the Actual will be posted to CO.

I hope this helps.
