Application Parameter (APPCTRL)

Parameter

Description

Employee Display Name

(EMP_DISPLAY_NM_CONFIG)

This parameter indicates how the employee’s name should be displayed on the Travel landing page and wizards. Possible values for the parameter are: 0, 1, 2, or 3.

Parameter value = 0 will display last name, first name, and first letter of the middle name (for example, “Smith, John B”).
Parameter value = 1 will display last name and first name (for example, “Smith, John”).
Parameter value = 2 will display first name and then last name (for example, “John Smith”).
Parameter value = 3 will display first name, first letter of middle name, and then last name (for example, “John B Smith”).

This parameter is found in the HRM version of Application Parameters.

Travel Inquiry Search

(TRVL_INQ_SEARCH)

This parameter defines whether the blank or wildcard (*, %) search is allowed on Travel Inquiry pages (TRAV, TRIPS, TRIPD, TRIPAUD, TRIPHIST) to improve performance when row filtering security is on. When the parameter value is True and some level of actual information is not supplied in one parameter, an error is displayed.

Performance testing should be done periodically when set to False to determine if the parameter needs to be changed.

My Travel Work Widget Transaction Code Filter

(TRVL_WRK_EMP_WIDGET_DOCCD_FILTER)

The My Travel Work widget has the capability to limit what transaction codes are displayed for users in a business role where the Role Type information setting is Employee as users in such a role would only be expecting wizard views of the travel transactions and not the full transactions, which they are not likely to have security access to open. This parameter provides for a comma-separated list of those transaction codes. Only the primary transaction codes must be listed and not the alternate page codes for the wizard transactions. If left blank, all travel transactions created by user can be viewed from the widget while in such a business role.
