assumes that the Travel Management application is already being used.
Travel Management is delivered as an extension. An extension must be
activated for it to appear in the SAP Easy Access Menu, the SAP
Reference IMG, and the Application Hierarchy. To be able to continue to
use the Travel Management solution, you must activate the Travel
Management extension (EA-TRV) in the Reference IMG (activity: Activation
Switch for SAP Extensions). The program PTRV_TRAVEL_EXISTS has attempted
to activate this extension automatically.
