Use

In order to define a release scenario, you have to follow a specific sequence of Customizing steps in the IMG. You first specify that you would like to activate the release functionality in your FM area.

Next you can define exceptions to this rule for a specific fund or fund type.

Then, in the budgeting workbench (BWB) or in the mass release transaction, you can carry out further manual releases of your budget if necessary.

Requirements

You have installed the Budget Control System.

Standard settings

SAP does not deliver any default values.

Activities

Process the IMG activities in the order they appear.

Example

You want to use releases for your FM area, but do not need this function for a specific fund or fund type, for which the voted budget is immediately available and therefore does not need to be released. So you first activate the release for your FM area, then specify the exceptions per fund or fund type by choosing the scenario "no release" for this in the IMG activity Define Release Scenario for each Fund or Define Release Scenario for each Fund Type.

Another option for a fund (or fund type) is to assign the scenario "automatic release" in the IMG activity Define Release Scenario for each Fund. In this case, every time the budget is updated, the release is adjusted accordingly. The full budget amount is then also immediately available.
