PR05 Message No. 56075

Hello experts,

Here I have a customer who has HR system for payroll, and FI system for the rest (accounting, MM, SD, travel).

Hr data are transferred in the FI system in order to have for example, the travel expenses paid on the supplier (based on HR data).

What I don't understand is the following : In the FI system, when executing transaction PR05 for a population which is not paid by the company but for which they have travel expenses, I m receiving the following message :

No personnel control record exists for accounting area 99

Message No. 56075

I don't understand this link with "payroll area" as the transfer will be done to the suppliers in finance module.

We do PR05/PREC/PRFI/PRRW --> in FI

Two questions for you, experts (ok maybe more ;-)):

* If I m forcing the value to the accounting area B1 (which is the one the company area paid the payroll in HR system), system is ok and I can save. I can continue my flow --> Is it a normal way to do it (to get around this) ? what are the impacts of this manual change? I don't understand the link to the accounting/payroll area??? Am I missing something?

*if this is not the way to treat this, how can I do?

Thanks in advance for your help,

PA03 for payroll area 99 has to be created even if not used.

That's solved our problem

Hello,

Travel data runs in HR system untill they are transferred to FI system through Tcode: PRRW.

PRFI, PREC asks for payroll area is because those tcodes are also run while Travel is integrated with Payroll system. But It is an old news now. Now a days PRFI and PREC and PRRW are only used for transferring documents to FI. For payroll integration we just need to implement a BADI.

Hello Sudhakar,

Thanks for your reply.

They have chosen here to have and keep the travel expense in the Fi system, as it is not related to payroll and this was in place before the HR system was on.

OK for the explanation of relevant payroll area. Thanks!

Hello,

Since the system is fetching data related to employee vendor ( personnel number) from HR Master, payroll area is relevant while processing.

Also, as far as I know, the above transactions PR05, PREC, PRFI and PRRW are done in the HR system. Once PRRW is complete, the system pushes the trip data onto R3 System. At this stage, the trip expense can be seen as an open item in the vendor account.

The system must be asking for the payroll area at transaction PRFI level, where we have various option like payroll area 99, U1 (full time) etc.,

Hope this explains.

Regards,

Sudhakar*
