3232030 - Is It Possible to Change the Default Values of the Header Text and Item Text of the Expense Report's Journal Entry?

Symptom

After posting the expense report, you find that the values of header text and item text in the journal entry are in the following format by default.

Header Text: Expense Report ID/Currency/Version ID/Employee ID/Employee Name

Line items for Costs-> Item Text: Expense ID: Expense Type

Line items for Accounts Payables-> Item Text: Expense Report ID/Currency/Version ID/Employee ID/Employee Name

You want to know if it's possible to change the default method.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to General Ledger work center.
  2. Go to Journal Entries view.
  3. Search the journal entry in question.
  4. Click on View.
  5. You find that the assignment method of header text and item text is fixed(as stated in the Symptom).

Resolution

From an application point of view these texts are hardcoded without a chance for the customer to manipulate it.

Whether it's BO of expense report or journal entry, we can't release PSM to help customers achieve custom header text and item text requirements.
