 Preclosing Activities: Transfer Residual Budget Locate this document in the navigation structure

Use

If you want to use Transaction FMMPCOVR to carry out a transfer posting of your residual budget to the following year, you can use Transaction FMMPPCLO to make sure that your budget is balanced before the transfer posting, with respect to the objects (AVC objects or cover groups) to be transferred.

Note Note

This step is not mandatory and is also not a prerequisite for carrying over your residual budget to the next year.

End of the note.

You can use this program in the following situations:

  • You want to balance your budget with respect to availability control objects or BCS cover groups before carrying the budget forward to the next year, or

  • You want to balance your budget with respect to a group of budget addresses before carrying it forward.

  • You want to transfer only negative budget to predefined FM accounts and then in a second step carry out the actual year-end closing using the Budgeting Workbench.

Prerequisites

The calculation of the residual budget is based on the key figures that were previously maintained in Customizing.

The IMG activity Assign Derivation Strategy for Reassignment to FM Area must have been maintained. It is in the IMG menu   Master Data   Derivation Strategy for Reassignment   .

Procedure

In Transaction FMMPPCLO, you select the budget addresses for which you want to transfer your residual budget by checkmarking the corresponding AVC objects or CE groups. When you run the transaction, the budget transfer documents will automatically be selected for output.

When you transfer the residual budget, you can select budget addresses via AVC objects and CE groups, or have entry documents generated for them instead.

Read the program documentation for further information.

Result

You have balanced your budget with respect to the residual budget carryforward, or you have transferred negative budget to predefined FM account assignment elements.
