Mass Maintenance of Cover Eligibility Rules

Use

You can use this function to determine the types of cover eligibility in which more than one expenditures FM account assignment takes part (unilateral cover eligibility, cover pool, revenues increasing the budget). In the same way as in Individual Maintenance , you can define cover eligibility relationships by maintaining the necessary assignments on the relevant tab pages. For more information on the tab pages, see Cover Eligibility Rule Maintenance .

Unlike individual maintenance, in mass maintenance, you can group together a number of expenditures FM account assignments and process them together. To do this, generate a selection list using specific criteria and you can select from this list the account assignments you want to process together.

Prerequisites

For more information, see Rule Maintenance for Unilateral and Reciprocal Cover Eligibility .

Features

There are three ways of maintaining assignments:

  • Sequential maintenance

Select the commitment items that you want to maintain in the selection list and choose the Sequential maintenance pushbutton . Individual Maintenance appears for the first FM account assignment that you have selected in the list, you can then make the assignments you require. When you save your entries, you go to the next FM account assignment.

  • Mass maintenance

From the selection list, select the FM account assignment you want to maintain and choose the Multiple maintenance pushbutton. A dialog box appears in which you can choose the assignment(s) you want to make. Individual Maintenance appears for the selection you make. When you save the assignment(s) you make, the system also automatically saves these same assignments for all the FM account assignments selected.

Possible uses for this function include when you want to assign several FM account assignments that are entitled to cover to the same FM account assignments that are subject to cover.

  • Individual Processing

In the selection list, double click on a line item and the Individual Maintenance screen appears.
