In this IMG activity, you activate the grant, fund, functional area and funded program for your client.

Note:

The funds is already active in Funds Management (PSM-FM) in Former Budgeting. However, if you use the Budget Control System for your budgeting and want to use the funds as an account assignment object, you have to activate it in this IMG activity and in the IMG activity Activate Account Assignment Elements in Budget Control System.

If you only want to use the fund in Funds Management (PSM-FM), but not in CO and Asset Accounting, you can deactivate it in the IMG of the Budget Control System

If you want to use the account assignment elements grant, functional area and funded program, you have to activate them in this IMG activity.

The activation of the account assignment elements after the live date has a number of effects in the whole system. Therefore, SAP recommends integrating a migration project.

Activating, the grant, fund, functional area, and funded program has the following effects:

  • In Controlling (CO), the respective account assignment element must also be assigned to the CO objects and cost element.
  • In Asset Accounting (AA), the account assignment elements are available and can be defined in the asset master record and assigned with postings in order to manage the balances for each account assignment element.
  • In Payroll (HR), the account assignment element must also be assigned.
    Note that you must enter a date with the activation for when the account assignment element should be assigned to an account in HR.
    As soon as the date is set, you must define the account assignment element when creating new or changing HR master records for all infotypes used ( 0001, 0027, 1018 (organizational management) 0014, 0015, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2010).

    NOTE
    If you have been using HR for a while, the infotypes of the HR master records are not automatically supplied with an FM account assignment. You cannot carryout payroll therefore because the account assignment element cannot be found when payroll is running.
    Therefore you must create in the HR master records from the date entered in a new info record and delimit the old record.
  • In Funds Management (PSM-FM), in addition to the account assignment elements, commitment item and funds center, the respective account assignment element must also be budgeted and assigned.
  • Note the following:
    • The grant and funded program can only be budgeted if you are using the Budget Control System. The funded program cannot be entered with postings, it must be derived from the account assignment elements of other components, for example, CO objects (project and order) instead.
    • After the activation of functional area, grant, and funded program, you cannot restrict the selection to individual values in all programs. The corresponding program is then executed for all values of the respective account assignment element.
  • Grants Management (PSM-GM) is activated by activating the account assignment element, grant. You can define more settings for Grants Management in the IMG of Grants Management.

Note

  • The activation of the account assignment elements for German Government customers has not been released.
  • The activation of grant, functional area and funded program has not been released for European Commission customers.
