Statistical budget without AVC

[suma_mani]

Hi Experts,

Requirement :- To upload budget against Fund / Fund center / Commitment item as reporting purpose not to check AVC.

Assumed solution :- Create separate commitment with Commitment item category as 30 and financial transaction as 2 and Upload budget as above.

( Please not if i select statistical check box in FMCIA ,system not allowing to upload budget)

In FMRP_RW_BUDCON report those values are shown as negative. Is it standard behavior or any other problem. Can anybody guide me any alternative solution where i can upload budget but AVC not required.

Hi,

Do you want AVC not to be checked on all FM area or only on specific FM addresses? If the first is correct, then you can define AVC ledger 'Active without availability check' (IMG - Define Activation of Availability Control). Otherwise, you can define a tolerance profile with no AVC messages and assign AVC strategy for deriving this profile for certain FM addresses.

As for reports and negative values, please see note 739815.

Greetings,

Please explain how you managed to solve your problem. I have a client who is requiring that we budget only for funds centers and not commitment items. I wanted to use commitment items as statistical but the system refuses to budget for them. How do I go about it?

Hi,

That's not the way you should manage this. You have to create just one commitment item and budget it with fund centres. Then, all your postings, which are budget relevant, should be deviated to this commitment item; you can simply put it as default assignment in FMDERIVE.

Hi Eli,

Thanks a lot for your response.

If I create one commitment item to budget with funds centers, does it mean I have to create a derivation rule linking that one commitment item to all the GL accounts so that the system wont reject expense postings citing availability control? How do I do that?

Hi Eli,

Thanks I have managed to do that. I have used one commitment item and assigned to all the expense GLs in the chart of accounts. I have tested and it worked correctly.

Thanks a lot.
