Transfer of Budget Data

Use

Within closing operations, you can execute the carryforward of residual budget to the following year using this program.

You execute the program run in the FM area/fiscal year for each budget category and version. The budget carryforward to the following fiscal year takes place on the basis of the fiscal year entered.

Integration

If errors occur when the program is executed, you can reverse the budget entry documents generated using a mass reversal by executing the program Reverse Budget Data .

Features

You execute the carryforward of residual budget in the sender fiscal year for each budget type. You can select a budget type different from these in the following year (receiver year). The residual budget can be distributed in one period or between a number of periods in accordance with a distribution key.

The residual budget is calculated using a key figure .SAP provides predefined key figures for this which are assigned to the category Year End.

Note

Note that the use of customer-defined key figures for the category year end is restricted. You must use the key figures provided by SAP as a template if you want to use customer-defined key figures. A key figure for calculating residual budget consists of terms for budget data and actual/commitment data. Changes to a customer-defined key figure are only allowed in the budget data term.

The budget entry documents generated by the program run receive a common entry document family number in addition to an individual budget document number.

You can also define the following common settings or information for all entry documents to be created for each program run:

Document type
Document date
Person responsible
Short text information and standard text
Settings for US Federal Government functions

This information is displayed in the budgeting workbench for each budget entry document in the header data (tab page Header Data) or on the tab page Additional Data.
