Master Data for Negative Budget

Use

If you want to enter negative budget values for certain FM account assignments, you must flag these FM account assignments, as they are subject to special budget consistency and availability control requirements. For further information on negative budget allocation, see Negative Budget.

Integration

You create the master data for the affected FM account assignments as normal. You can find information on this in the documentation on the subject Master data.

Features

All tax information is defined in the master record of commitment items. Participant funds centers or funds do not need any special indicators.

Master record of the participant commitment items

You can flag an FM account assignment by selecting the field Negative Budget of the affected commitment item in the master record.

This field is available for expenditure type commitment items as well as revenue type.

You create these commitment items in the standard variant ‚000‘ as individual nodes. This means that there are not any subordinate or superior nodes for them.

Constraints

You cannot select the field Negative Budget if the commitment item is:

Used in a cover pool
Flagged as a collective expenditure commitment item
Flagged as a balance commitment item
Flagged as a statistical commitment item
Taken into account by revenues increasing the budget

Caution

If budget values for an FM account assignment are already saved in the system, then you can no longer change the field Negative Budget.
