    Title:
    You must enter a valid expense location
    Summary:
    Error when trying to save an expense report that includes a location
    Content:

    I have just completed the configuration in our staged environment.  When we try to create a new expense report that has the 'destination' or 'expense location' on it I receive the following error:

    You must enter a valid expense location. (EXM-630159)

    We are able to create an expense item and the location is fine, it only happens on the expense report level.

    Has anyone else experienced this error?

    Thanks,

    Jennifer

      Hi Jennifer, 
      Can you check if the Lookup Type 'EXM_SETUP_OPTIONS' has a lookup code 'ENABLE_LOCATION_LEVELS'  setup and enabled ?
      Thanks

      Thanks so much, yes, I have verified that setting!

      I have the following setting in 'Manage Expense System Options'

      Enable Expense Location Level:  Country and State or Province

      I am able to enter just a country and don't receive the error.  It's only when I try to select a province or state.

      I'm wondering if I need to rerun some part of Geographies?

      Thanks,

      Jennifer

        Hi Jennifer, 
        Is your "Manage Geographies" task showing arrows or checkmarks for your specific country ? 
        After clicking to get checkmarks, I'd run the process "Load and Index TCA Geographies".
        Thanks,

      Hi everyone, we just resolved the issue, as per Oracle we ran the process 'Synchronize non-transactional text indexes'

      Thanks everyone!
