Use

In this step, you can specify that the initial value entry is allowed for account assignment elements grant, fund, functional area and funded program.

In the standard system, these account assignment elements must always have a fixed value as soon as they are activated in the step Activate Account Assignment Elements. SPACE/BLANK is then no longer accepted as a value by the system.

Note that this restriction is necessary because the following functions in the system do not accept BLANK/SPACE or entering BLANK/SPACE can lead to undesirable consequences:

  • In Controlling you cannot define an assessment or allocation for the BLANK/SPACE value separately. This means that an allocation of fund BLANK (for example) to a different fund is not possible. The fund BLANK is only bequeathed from sender to receiver.
  • One of the values proposed from the account assignment derivation can no longer be deleted through a manual entry (BLANK) when posting.
  • When selecting values, as a rule, the entry BLANK/SPACE means that all values for an account assignment element are selected.

If after live date of the account assignment elements grant, fund, functional area or funded program for the first time with this release, you can allow the initial value (BLANK/SPACE) as value for these account assignment elements for your FM area in the transition period. This means that you will not have to make supplement account assignments for documents posted that are in old fiscal years.
