How To Fix 56731 - Execute comparison calculation for accommodations receipts

56731 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

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

• Message number: 731

• Message text: Execute comparison calculation for accommodations receipts

What causes this issue?

You have entered a new accommodations receipt or changed or deleted
existing entries. When a new receipt is entered or the amount, currency
or validity period of existing receipts is changed, the receipt amount
is divided by the number of days in the area of validity (see
additional
receipt information). The daily rate thus determined is compared with
the maximum rate of the accommodations per diem for the country of the
receipt. If the daily rate exceeds the allowed maximum rate, comparison
calculation is required.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

This is also required if receipt additions, deletions or changes
make overall reconsideration necessary, even if comparison calculation
has already been performed before.
The trip can not be saved until comparison calculation has been
carried out.
Although the message was issued, it is possible that the overall
consideration of receipts via comparison calculation can produce the
result that capping or an allowance is not necessary.

How to fix this error?

You can perform comparison calculation on the receipt entry screen.
