Define Hierarchy of Budget Structure Element Types

In this step of the IMG, you organize budget structure element types into a hierarchical structure.

Example

In your overall budget, you have budget structure elements called 0001 - Level 1, 0002 - Level 2 and 0003 - Level 3.

Budget structure element 0002 - Level 2 should appear below budget structure element 0001 - Level 1 , and above budget structure element 0003 - Level 3.

In this case, you would define the budget structure element hierarchy as follows in the hierarchy table:

| BS el.type| Name | Assigned BS el.type |Name |
---------------------------------------------------------------
| 0001 | Level 1 | 0002 |Level 2 |
| 0002 | Level 2 | 0003 |Level 3 |

Requirements

You must have defined budget structure element types in the previous IMG step.

Activities

1. Choose New entries.
2. In the Budget structure element type field, specify the budget structure element type that is to appear at the top of the hierarchy.
3. Assign the next budget structure element down to the budget structure element type defined in step 2 above by entering its key in the Assigned budget structure element type field.
4. Continue defining the hierarchy by repeating steps 2 and 3 above.
5. When you have defined the entire hierarchy, choose Save.
