The Travel Policy (TRP) page allows authorized users to define different travel policies. Travel Policy records must first be established on this page before they can be used on the Travel Policy by Expense Type (TRPET) page. If an Expense Type is not established on TRPET, then a traveler associated with that travel policy is not authorized to use that Expense Type and therefore will not be able to submit a Travel transaction with that Expense Type.
The Travel Policy page contains the following tab:
General Information – This tab defines the attributes of the travel policy.
Note: When marking a Travel Policy record as inactive (that is, the Active flag is unchecked), the system will not force the TRPET records associated with that Travel Policy to also become inactive. During Travel transaction processing, the system determines the applicable travel policy for the expense type. As part of that logic, if the applicable travel policy is a TRPET record, the system validates that the Travel Policy associated with that TRPET record is still active.
