Travel Management Reports not displaying advance amounts

[prakhar_prakash]

Dear Experts,

I did noticed that one of the report - S_AHR_61016401 - Information System -> Trip Statistics -> General Trip Data/Trip Totals  in travel management reports is not displaying advance amounts while the other report - S_AHR_61016405 - Trip Statistics -> General Trip Data/Totals/Receipts/Cost Assignment  is displaying .

Please suggest on how to remove this inconsistencies in order to avoid recon issues.

Thanks,

Hi Prakhar,

Sven is right. However if you want to report and advance then either you can create a custom report which shouldn't take long for ABAP to write something or your use the transaction FBL3N to report on the GL account where the advance are being posted.

Hope this helps.

Hi Prakhar,

This is not an inconsistency. These are two different reports for differen purposes. As the second one is about cost assignment, it makes sense for advances not to be included, because an advance payment is no cost, but only affecting short term cash flow. (To illustrate: Advances sit on the balance sheet, but are irrelevant for your P&L).

So, when reconciling various numbers against each other, you need to make sure you don't reconcile apples with pears.

Kind regards

Sven
