Travel COA Override (TRCOA)

Travel COA Override (TRCOA) defines the accounting attributes that override any existing values. The page gives a department or a unit within a department the ability to set one or more COA fields except for Object and Sub Object (because those values are inferred from the selected Expense Type) to powerfully infer to denote accounting records as travel related.

When the Generate Accounting Lines action is selected on a travel transaction, the system will evaluate whether a Travel COA Override record exists in the following order:

1. Fiscal Year, Department, and Unit match that of the Traveler line.

2. Fiscal Year and Department match that of the Traveler line where the override record has the ALL wildcard for Unit.

3. Fiscal Year of the Traveler line matches where the override record has the ALL wildcard for Department and Unit.

To support not having one or more COA fields recorded with travel, the Travel COA Override supports the BLNK wildcard for all COA fields so that any user-supplied value is cleared out on the accounting line
