Prerequisites

You must have created at least one overall budget, or carried forward an existing one. This overall budget is automatically assigned the budget status Proposed.

Note 

You can create and change the budget hierarchy, and assign budgets to budget structure elements only if the budget status is Proposed. For this reason, always remember that, once you change the status, you will not be able to make any further changes to the budget hierarchy or the budgets of the budget structure elements.

Your overall budget must be consistent - otherwise, you will not be able to change the budget status. This is because the SAP System performs a consistency check before the budget status is changed.

Procedure

    2. The Change Budget Status screen appears.

  6. To have the system check the overall budget to make sure that it does not contain any inconsistencies, choose This graphic is explained in the accompanying text .

    7. If the system detects any inconsistencies, these are displayed in an error log.

    Note

    You will not be able to change the budget status until you have rectified all the inconsistencies contained in the error log.
