Define Tolerance Limits for Availability Control

In this IMG activity, you define the tolerance limits for availability control.

Availability control can help you recognize possible budget overruns in time and can automatically trigger different actions.

You configure availability control for each budget profile. You can define one or more tolerance limits for the different activity groups within a budget profile.

When these tolerances are reached, you can have the system trigger specific actions (warning, warning with Mail, error message).

Requirements

You must maintain the activation type in the budget profile.

Activities

Define the tolerance limits per activity group for the budget profile you are using.

Further notes

Enter activity group ++ to define the tolerance limits for all activity groups.
This activity group is designed to simplify data entry and is particularly useful if you do not want to define a separate tolerance limit for each group.

In addition to a tolerance defined for "all transaction groups", you can define a limit for a particular transaction group.
This additional tolerance limit has priority over the "general" limit.

If you have already worked with availability control in a release before 3.0C, you must start a conversion program for the availability control tolerance limits. For more information, see the 3.0C release notes.
