Documentation

Definition

Specifies whether the amount is a default value or a maximum rate, and how the system reacts when a user exceeds the maximum rate.

Use

Possible values are:

  • (A) Default Value

    The amount is proposed as an entry value in dialogs.

  • (B) Reason

    If the maximum amount is exceeded, an explanation for exceeding the maximum rate must be entered in the Reason field.

  • (C) Warning

    If the amount is exceeded, a warning is issued in dialogs.

  • (D) Distribution of the receipt amount to different wage types

    The receipt amount is split into two parts if the maximum amount stored here is exceeded.

    The first part contains the maximum amount stored and is assigned to the first wage type. This part contains the input tax code of the receipt recorded in dialogs.

    The second part is the amount that exceeds the maximum rate. It is written to the second wage type and posted with 0% input tax.

  • (E) Error message

    If the amount is exceeded, an error message is issued in dialogs.

Dependencies

Before a user can enter an explanation for exceeding the maximim rate, the Reason field needs to be ready for input for each respective expense type. For more information, see Field Control for Additional Receipt Information.

For more information about assigning wage types, see Assign Wage Types to Trip Expense Types for Individual Receipts.
