Request For Budget Change

Use

You can use a request in the Internet for an order, network, network activity, or a WBS element ( = budget consumer) budget.

The budget request procedure is as follows:

The person entering the data enters the object, the required budget increase ( = amount), and the currency in the request form.

The person making the request may know who is to approve or process the budget allocation, and can enter this person's name or let the system determine the name.

The budget request is forwarded to a person for approval/processing. An accounting clerk may also be involved in processing the request in the SAP-R/3-System.

There are twoscenarios

(= 2 web forms):

Budget request (scenario SR61)

The form is sent to a processor, who also changes the budget.
The processor executes the budget transaction in the SAP-R/3-System.

Budget request with approval (scenario SR62)

The form is sent to someone for approval.

This person must approve the request, after which it is sent to the processor via workflow (this is determined using the role), who makes the budget changes in the SAP-R/3-System.

Note

The person approving the change can also execute the transaction.

The budgeting currency (group currency, object currency, or a currency chosen by the user) is determined by the Customizing in the budget profile.

For the WBS element, the budget managers are the WBS element manager and the project manager. You can define these in Customizing.

Effects on Customizing

The customizing settings for both the scenarios for budget changes are stored in Customizing for the internal service request.

For more information on customizing the internal service request, see the SAP Library under Cross-Application Components -> Internet / Intranet Services.
