This request is also to change the automatic payment block R on travel agent invoices to use payment block T = Travel, which will allow payment block to be used exclusively for MIR7 invoices that have a quantity issue.

But in the UN's case, we are requesting the utility to complete the existing error workflow and start a new one.
The errors could happen when:
• Proper attributes are not maintained in the service org.
• Agent assignment is wrongly done.
Since these errors are more technical in nature, analysis is needed and after successful maintenance of the attributes in the service organization, e to re-trigger the workflow.
The work is also technical in nature as it needs the GUID/Business object of the document to be inserted into the container element. The proposed utility will be more user-friendly and avoid mistakes when having to analyze and work with the aforementioned items.
