Field Status Customizing

Use

When posting in the Funds Management (FM) feeder components the fields Commitment item, Funds center, Fund and if desired Earmarked funds , for the Funds Management account assignments, only appear if the field status is correspondingly maintained. The field status setting influences if the entry fields appear as optional or required fields or if no entry is possible.

Funds Management updating determines if and which account assignment information is required on the basis of the transaction used and the controlling of the commitment item, and irrespective of the definition of the field status. Exceptions are the object types maintenance order, SD order item, network header and network activity. The field status must be maintained for these object types so that the posting data can be updated into Funds Management.

If you want to enter the FM account assignment manually when posting, the fields in the coding block must be ready for input.
