The system compiles all the commitment/actual data for the past fiscal year and sets it against the budget. The procedure is different for expenditures and revenues.

Expenditures:

The system determines the values according to the availability control For more information, see Availability Control Settings.

Revenues:

If you have not defined any Budget Objects in the Budget Structure the revenues are not added together in the first budget object element, but remain in the element to which they were assigned. This element is then the sender element in the budget carryforward.

If you have defined budget objects in the budget structure, the revenues are pulled up to the first budget object found in the hierarchy. This budget object is then the sender element in the budget carryforward.

Start the programs for Determining the Budget To Be Carried Forward and for the Carryforward immediately after this program. This ensures that you are working with the most current data. If, after running the program, you make further postings or carryforwards concerning the open commitment, you must run program BPINDX04 again too.
