SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: 56 - HR TRAVEL: Messages for Trip Costs Dialog

• Message number: 473

• Message text: First trip destination does not have destination address: Use input help

What causes this issue?

Reoccurring trips to a specific destination need to be grouped together
for tax reasons, in order to be able to change the accounting and
taxation method after a certain amount of time (for example, three
months).
In order to be able to identify reoccurring destinations, destinations
must be entered in detail: This means that destinations can only be
entered using input help. Input help consists of a dialog-box in which
the upper area of the list contains the destinations already visited.
If you have to travel to a specific destination again, you can then
select this destination from the list. New destinations can be created,
by entering the street and location details, in the lower section of
the list. This ensures that reoccurring trips to a specific destination
are always created with the same destination name and details.
