SAP provides three different procedures for increasing the expenditures budget on the basis of purpose-oriented revenues. The basis of all of the procedures is to construct rules that stipulate, for each revenues FM account assignment, which part of a revenue should increase the budget for which expenditures FM account assignment. These rules also usually stipulate the procedure with which the budget increase should be executed.

In this step, you define a default rule that should make it easier for you to process the rules within master data maintenance. The entries you make here for the default rule will appear as default values that you can overwrite for each revenue FM account assignment during rule maintenance.

Features of the procedures:

  • Distribution procedure 1 (document-based)
    In this procedure, an expenditures FM account assignment receives budget from revenues increasing the budget independent of actual requirements. "Independent of actual requirements" means that you can make budget increases at any point in time using programs RFFMUD11 and RFFMUD01.
    In this procedure, a connection is established between the revenue document (FI document or forecast of revenues) and the budget document. You should only use this procedure if this relationship is relevant for reporting purposes in your organization.
  • Distribution procedure 2 (totals-based)
    In this procedure an expenditures FM account assignment also receives budget from revenues increasing the budget independent of actual requirements. You can make budget increases at any point in time using program RFFMUD21.
    In this procedure, no connection is established between the revenues document and the budget document. You should only use this procedure if this relationship is not relevant in your organization.
  • Call procedure
    In this procedure, an expenditures FM account assignment can only use revenues increasing the budget as required and in the necessary amount. In this case, "as required" means that the expenditure FM account assignment itself does not have available budget and that the posting of an expenditure should be rejected by the system.

Note on manual budget increases

In addition to this procedure, you can also restructure the budget by means of Manual transfers from revenues FM account assignments to expenditures account assignments. For further information on this procedure, refer to section "Activate check for manual budget increase".

Default rule

In the default rule, you define which events allow a budget increase (expected revenues, billing document, incoming payments).

You also define the extent to which budget changes are allowed for the affected FM account assignments and the amount for which a revenue increasing the budget should be carried out:

  • By entering a revenues budget memo and an expenditures budget memo, you define the extent to which budget changes are allowed for the affected FM account assignments, for example, whether the budget increase should be automated or executed manually.
  • By entering a percentage rate, you define the portion of a budget-increasing revenue that is available to the expenditures FM account assignments.
  • By entering an interval (minimum revenue and upper limit), you define from what amount (minimum revenue) and to what level (upper limit) revenues that have been posted to revenues FM account assignments can be used by expenditures FM account assignments.

Requirements

The prerequisites for the definition of the default rule are listed below. Also, there are further requirements for the use of revenues increasing the budget.

Requirements for all procedures (manual and automated)

To set up revenues increasing the budget, you have executed the following steps:

Further requirements for automated procedure

Requirements for the default rule

Budget memos that you want to define as default values for the rule must have been created in step "Maintain budget memo texts".

Further requirements for call procedure

You can only set up the call procedure, if:

  • You are working with budget objects.
  • Active availability control checks against years on the basis of the valid budget profile.
    For further information on budget profiles, refer to "Set up budget profiles".
  • You are not using commitment type profiles.
    For further information on commitment type profiles, refer to section "Maintain commitment type profile".
  • You are not working with releases.
    This restriction only applies to German local authorities customers.

Recommendation

You can use all procedures simultaneously by defining a rule with call procedure for some FM account assignments and a rule with distribution procedure 1 or 2 for others. You can, for example, stipulate that only certain expenditures FM account assignments can use revenues increasing the budget as required, while, for other expenditure FM account assignments, the budget is increased whenever the appropriate revenue FM account assignment has sufficient revenues available for distribution.

You can also change these procedures in mid-year for a revenue FM account assignment, according to your requirements, in rule maintenance. Warning: This does not apply to distribution procedure one as it has a different data basis than the other procedures. Once the first budget increase has been executed for an FM account assignment using distribution procedure 1, you are no longer allowed to select another procedure.

Activities

  1. Check which procedure you actually want to set up in your organization.
  2. Define the default rule.
  3. Further procedure-specific settings
    1. If you want to use Distribution procedure 1, you must also enter a surplus FM account assignment in step "Make settings for distribution procedure 1 (document-based)".
    2. If you want to use Distribution procedure 2, you must also enter a surplus FM account assignment in step "Make settings for distribution procedure 2 (totals-based)".
    3. If you want to use the Call procedure, you must also activate the call procedure in step "Activate automated cover eligibility procedure".
