 Excluding WBS Elements From Availability Control Locate this document in the navigation structure

A project and its WBS elements go through different stages, or statuses. The status determines whether or not you can use certain business transactions. You can exclude a WBS element with budget and the lower-level account assignment elements from availability control. You do this by activating a user status for the controlling element, for which the availability control business transaction is not allowed.

If a WBS element has this status, then the assigned funds are not included in the availability control, in other words, no action is triggered. However, the assigned values are still updated on the controlling element.

For more information on how to create a user status, see the SAP Library under   Financials   PS-Project System   Structures   Status Management   .
