.3.1.1.5.2 Assignment of Wage Type to Symbolic Account
Use
Travel Management enables you to structure the interface to Financial Accounting flexibly using theso-called initial account assignment. The initial account assignment determines the posting accounts
and controls the accounts side (debits/credits).For this process, you assign the following data to each wage type that you assigned in the travelexpense types for individual receipts and per diems: A symbolic account expenses, a symbolicaccount for offsetting entry, and if necessary, a second symbolic account clearing (especially in thecase of paid receipts).
Since the standard wage type MJ63 has been assigned to the additional travel expense type MTBZ,and there is already a suitable symbolic account for this wage type in the standard system, it is notnecessary to make any new entries here.
Prerequisites
The appropriate wage types have been assigned to the travel expense types.

.3.1.1.5.4 Assign Substitute Cost Center
Use
In the dialog for travel expense data entry, you can enter a cost assignment specification for trips,stopovers or receipts. At present, only cost centers should be entered as additional accountassignment objects.
The transfer report enables you to substitute non-postable CO objects with the cost center that iscurrently valid in Travel Privileges (infotype 0017). If this cost center is not postable either, the systemsubstitutes the original CO object with a substitute cost center from table TKA3G. The systemdocuments all substitutions in the trip transfer documents in the posting run. This means you canreassign these substitutions manually at a later stage.
To ensure that a warning and not an error message is issued when the account assignment ischecked, the cost center 1104 has been defined in table TKA3G. When you create the posting run,ensure the Replace incorrect CO objectfield is active.
