3.1 Defining Expense Report Templates

Tag:

You must define at least one expense report template with the Enable for Internet Expenses Users check box selected. Only expense report templates with this option enabled can be used in Internet Expenses. Use the Oracle Payables Expense Report Templates window to define your expense report templates.

Seeded Expense Report Template
An expense report template called Seeded Personal Expense is a seeded template available with your implementation of Internet Expenses. The purpose of this seeded template is to provide the expense type for personal expenses when you use the Company Pay credit card payment option. Do not delete or modify this seeded expense report template. Any changes to this template will cause problems with expense reports in workflow.

Mapping Credit Card Expense Types
In Oracle Payables, you can assign expense items to card expense types. Card expense types map to the folio_type column of the AP_CREDIT_CARD_TRXNS_ALL table. To illustrate how this functionality works, if a credit card transaction has
a folio_type of Hotel, when a user adds this credit card transaction to an expense report, the expense type with the Card Expense Type of Hotel is defaulted by the system. Users can also override the default expense type.

Project-Related Expense Report Templates
If your employees enter project-related expense reports in Internet Expenses, you must define a project-related expense report template in Oracle Payables. Employees entering project-related expense reports can only use a project-related
expense report template.

To create project-related expense types, you associate an expense item with an Oracle Projects expenditure type in the Projects Expenditure Type field of the Expense Report Templates window. Employees can then associate a project number,
task number, and award number (if applicable) with the project-related expense item when they enter expense reports in Internet Expenses.
Note: Users cannot enter or view project-related information in the Payables Expense Reports window.
