GM release document

[Former Member]

Hello experts,

I get an error message when trying to release a budget document. I proceed as follows:

1. Create a grant and change it to Award

2. Create a budget document for that grant (unreleased)

>>3. Try to release the budget:

Although I have a single line item 000010 in GM, I get the following error message:

"The GM Line amount in line 000002 is not equal to the total amount in Fiscal year distribution

Message no. GRANTMGMT490"

For information:

• I noticed that the number of errors is the same as the number of line items.

I.E. if I generate 3 GM line items: 000010, 000020 and 000030, I will get an error on line items 000004, 000005, and 000006.

• I have no problem creating a budget document for a grant which has budget type released. In this case, the FM document is created correctly.

It also looks like the line items the system is complaining about are the line items in the FM document:

FM line items are coded: 00000x

whereas GM line items are coded 0000x0

Did any of you encounter a similar issue?

Thanks for your help.

Hi, you can check the thread "Sponsored classes could not be determined; check grant" which was opened this week.

In sumary in the "unrelease" document you have to fill the distribution lines for FM, so when the release process is run there will be no problem.

"The system checks the validation implemented in BAdI GM_BDGT_VALIDATIONS (when value type is "R1") and due to the fact that in the proposal status there is no transfer to FM, is not posible to updated the the FM distribution lines so the error is raised."

Check notes:

869881 BAdI to allow customer validation in budgeting

1004192 In some scenario header, GM and FM lines are not consistent

Thanks Cesar for your feedback!

I saw that discussion before but I saw it was not relevant to me as I did not activate the Badi in question.

Is it compulsory to activate it, even though I do not see the need for activating customer validations?

Hello,

the badi is active by default (depends on the release you are), if you are having this error the badi is active for sure.

But the relevant matter here is that you have to always update the distribution lines for FM integration.

Of course if you do not want to have GM and FM synchronized you can deactivate the badi.

You are right, the BaDi is active already in our system.

I have seen a few elements missing so i will implement note 1004192 next week and let you know how that works.

Thanks again for your support.
