Best Practices for mySAP Service Providers One-step Travel Management: Configuration

1 Purpose
This document describes configuration of One-step Travel Management.
Limitations:
1) If you are running Travel Planning in one SAP system (and in one client) you do NOT need to
set up the ALE scenarios as described in 4.
2) If you choose to use the Amadeus connection, you will require authorization. The settings are
for the practice training environment of Amadeus; you do not make real bookings when
running the One-step Travel Management scenario.
3) For hosting by a travel agency, use ALE settings.
4) Travel Agencies hosting Travel Management must set up ALE connectivity.

Best Practices for mySAP Service Providers One-step Travel Management: Configuration

2 Basic Information
2.1 Create Trip Number Ranges
The travel system assigns a stored trip a trip number.
Personnel Area S300 must be set up.
SAP recommends that you only use internal trip number assignment.
Set up an internal number range for every personnel area under the number range 01 (mandatory
allocation) and / or an external number range under the number range 02 (mandatory allocation).
• Define the Number Range by choosing in IMG:
Financial Accounting→Travel Management→Set Up Trip number ranges

2.2 Set up Feature TRVCP for Travel Planning


In this step you set up the feature TRVCP for Travel Planning. Features contain rules that are used
primarily in the programs of the application component Human Resources (HR) to set default values.

The feature TRVCP is structured as a decision tree and is used to assign employees specific travel
profiles in Travel Planning. The feature is only active if no travel profile is stored for the employee in
infotype '0470' (travel profile).

The standard Set-up for “Otherwise” has changed from Standard to SAP_ALL. Some settings of the
standard delivery will not work when using Best Practices for mySAP Service Providers.
However, to have a better control over the Demo script, it is recommended that you add SAP_ALL in
the infotype 0470 of the personnel record.
• Define by choosing in IMG:
Financial Accounting→Travel Management→ Travel Planning→Dialog and Planning
Control→Travel Planning Control→Set up feature TRVCP for Travel Planning

Best Practices for mySAP Service Providers One-step Travel Management: Configuration

2.3 Define Price and Availability Strategies


ou determine strategies to control the price and availability queries. These strategies are dependent
on the user group for the different travel service categories.
You can define certain restrictions and authorizations for a user group in Travel Planning,
prerequisite; a corresponding user group is defined in advance (see below 3.5).
For Best Practices, only the standard user is maintained. Standard company policy applies for the
standard user.

• Define by choosing in IMG:


Financial Accounting→Travel Management→ Travel Planning→Dialog and Planning
Control→Travel Planning Control→Define price and availability strategies

© SAP AG English — April 2001 Page 7 of 40


Best Practices for mySAP Service Providers One-step Travel Management: Configuration

Flight strategy
Flights, which correspond to the requested data, are valuated by the system according to the preset
travel profile. You receive a list of flights sorted by priorities, which were assigned in the travel profile.
If you choose a neutral setting, the system does not valuate the flights according to the assigned
travel profile and the flights offered, are not listed according to their priorities.
Using Price-controlled availability, you control the function of the Best-price flight pushbutton in
the Planning manager
For the choice of departure and return flights you can specify a certain rule that the user is to comply
with (e.g., same airline for departure and return flights).
An automatic rebooking without considering the travel profile makes sense, for example, if a travel
profile is interpreted very narrowly and therefore no rebooking options into another flight category are
offered by the system, which correspond to the request data and the travel profile.
Hotel strategy:
To maintain company-internal trip provisions, you can limit the availability query using different
criteria.
Car rental strategy:
See Hotel strategy above.

3. Amadeus
To carry out online bookings via AMADEUS the following is required:

• Your enterprise must have a contractual agreement with AMADEUS regarding interface
usage and be a registered user with AMADEUS.
The example shown in the next chapters reflects entries for an office in Frankfurt (Germany). Please
enter your own data here, delivered by AMADEUS.
To use Travel Planning without GDS (Global Distribution System), enter the Parameter
TRV_NO_CRS with value “X” in the parameter list of your user-id (using transaction SU01).

3.1 Create Connection to Amadeus


The definition of an RFC destination is the technical prerequisite for connection to the central system
of the external reservation system.

© SAP AG English — April 2001 Page 9 of 40


Best Practices for mySAP Service Providers One-step Travel Management: Configuration

By defining the RFC destination, the connection between Amadeus and SAP is established.
You must set up an SAP Gateway and an Amadeus Gateway.
• Define the Connection by choosing in IMG:
Financial Accounting→Travel Management→Travel Planning→Master Data→Control
Parameters for Travel Planning→Setup RFC Destination for Travel Planning

Perform the following steps to create a connection to AMADEUS:


1. Click on the create button
2. Enter the RFC destination and description and then choose T (TCP/IP connection) as
connection type => confirm with enter
3. Click on the registration button and enter AMADEUS as the program ID
4. Via the menu ‘destination’ choose Gateway options and type in the Gateway host
and service => confirm by clicking on the Ok button
5. Save the entry
6. Now you can check the connection by clicking on the ‘test connection’ button (correct
execution of the above steps will result in an ‘information connection test ok’ running
in the status line).

Best Practices for mySAP Service Providers One-step Travel Management: Configuration

3.2 Define Sales Office


The Sales Office defines the travel agency within the scenario.
In this step, you define the sales offices responsible for the Travel Planning process in your company
(for example, for issuing tickets) by using the office IDs defined in Amadeus. Sales offices can be
travel agencies, sales offices of travel service providers (for example, airlines), or a travel center (for
example, in banks).

• Define the Sales Office by choosing in IMG:


Financial Accounting→Travel Management→Travel Planning→Master Data→Control

4. ALE
Refer to section 1 to decide whether ALE must be set up.

4.1 Define Logical System


A logical system is an application system in which the applications are coordinated to work in one
common database. In SAP terms, a logical system corresponds to a client.
The logical system must be unique across the company. It must not be used by any other system in
the ALE network. This also applies to pre-production systems and production systems; the pre-
production system must be assigned to a logical system other than the production system
The screen pictured below is an example of naming convention and does not reflect actual or
required settings.
• Define the Logical System by choosing in IMG:
Basis Components→Application Link Enabling (ALE) →Sending and Receiving
Systems→Logical Systems→Define Logical System
These settings cannot be transported. When a new system is being set up, these settings must be
made after the system installation has been completed.

4.3 Define Target System for RFC Calls (SP)


In this section, you define the technical parameters for the RFC destinations. The Remote Function
Call is controlled by the RFC destination parameters. To create an RFC port, the RFC destinations
must be assigned.

The screen pictured below is an example of naming convention and does not reflect actual or
required settings.
• Define the Target System for RFC by choosing in IMG:
Basis Components→Application Link Enabling (ALE) →Sending and Receiving

Best Practices for mySAP Service Providers One-step Travel Management: Configuration

4.6 Maintain Distribution Model and Distribute Views


The applications which communicate with each other within an ALE business process, are specified
when you model the message flow. You can define the message flow in the distribution model.

The distribution model consists of separate model views in which all the associated, cross-system
message flows in your organization can be defined. These views must be distributed to the receiving
systems.

In the individual message flows you can define filters to determine which data is to be transferred to
which receiving systems. The distribution model controls this distribution.

After maintaining the distribution model you have to generate this model in the receiving system.
• Maintain by choosing in IMG:
Basis Components→Application Link Enabling (ALE) →Modeling and Implementing Business
Processes →Maintain Distribution Model and Distribute Views

6. Travel Profiles
6.1 Define Travel Profiles
A travel profile is defined in R/3 Travel Planning via assignment of the following factors:
• Trip activity type
• Travel service category
• Trip rule and its priority
• Class rule of the respective travel service category
If the personnel profile is not maintained, the organizational profile controlled by feature TRVCP is
automatically applied. Then the employee's organizational assignment in the company is used as the
basis for considering travel policy.
You can specify the travel profiles for the respective employees in infotype '0470' (Travel Profile).
Feature TRVCP: for example, members of the board of directors are given special flight rules
(booking of first class only).
