Definition

Identification number assigned by the system for budget entry documents generated simultaneously in one program run.

Use

Budget entry documents generated in a mass run (that is, not entered manually in the Budgeting Workbench) receive a common document family number in addition to an individual entry document number. The document family number refers to all budget entry documents generated simultaneously in a mass run and makes it easier to search for these documents and process them further, for example, in a mass reversal.

If a budget entry document also has a document family number, this is displayed in the header data in the field Document Family . This field is automatically hidden for entry documents without document families.

Document families are created in the following program runs:

  • During the generation of budget entry documents from planning or budget data

  • During the carryforward of residual budget to the next fiscal year

  • During transfers between budget types within one fiscal year

  • During the generation of entry documents using the method BAPI_50_CREATE

  • During the generation of entry documents triggered by a Grants Management document
