You can use this function to set the approval status and the settlement status of a trip.
Integration
The assignment of a trip status is a prerequisite for saving the trip. Whether you have to do this assignment manually or whether it is set by the system automatically depends on the settings in feature TRVPA.
For more information, read the IMG documentation
Setting up Feature TRVPA for Travel Expenses Parameters and the documentation on feature TRVPA (in feature maintenance, choose Goto ® Documentation ).Features
You can use the function Assign trip status to initially assign, check or change the trip status for a trip. The trip statuses you are allowed to set depends on your
authorizations (authorization field AUTHS: 'Status new' when trip is saved) . The first time you save a trip, there is a trip status in the system as a default value which you can change depending on your authorizations. If you save the trip again, the system uses the last trip status stored in the database as a default value.You can set default values in Customizing for Travel Management under Travel Expenses ® Dialog and Travel Expenses Control ® Dialog Control ® Define schema and individual field control.
