Use

This IMG activity is relevant for Spanish customers but may be of interest for other customers who want to perform a further availability control check, in which FM commitment/actual documents consuming expenditure budget are checked against FM commitment/actual documents consuming revenue budget. This process is known as "revenue-based expenditure control (RBE)". In this way, FM execution documents consuming expenditure budget can be posted only if FM execution documents consuming revenue budget were previously posted with a sufficient amount.

Note
The commitment item category, which is maintained in the commitment item master record, is used in order to distinguish FM documents consuming revenue budget from those consuming expenditure budget.

In this IMG activity, you define the AVC filters for commitment/actual values for revenue-based expenditures. AVC filters combine value types with the corresponding filter types. You must specify whether the filter should be used for revenue operations or for expenditure operations.

You must also maintain the second IMG activity where you define the settings for revenue-based expenditure control and assign them to an availability control ledger. An example of an RBE control scenario is provided in the documentation of this second IMG activity.

Requirements

The fields customized by this IMG activity are only used by the sample coding of the Business Add-In FMAVC_ENTRY_FILTER, Enhance Filter Settings for Availability Control, and from the IMG activity "Assign settings for RBE to control ledger".

This means that you must create your implementation for these Business Add-Ins by copying the sample coding.

Furthermore, you must:

  • Define a customer availability control ledger to be used for revenue-based expenditure control.
  • Define a derivation strategy for availability control objects, where you aggregate all budget addresses at the fund level. In this way, RBE is performed at the fund level of the control objects.
  • Define a tolerance profile, where the tolerance limits are inactive.
  • Define a derivation strategy for the tolerance profiles, where you assign the previous tolerance profile to all fund types which are not RBE-relevant. Assign the standard tolerance profile to the fund type used in RBE.
  • Assign the derivation strategies for control objects and tolerance profile to the RBE customer-specific availability control objects.
  • Activate the AVC for your control ledger.

Standard settings

SAP delivers the following six standard filters:

  • 01 "Funds Reservation" is a filter for expenditure operations and filters all FM earmarked funds, invoices and payments consuming expenditure budget for the AVC ledger for RBE.
  • 02 "Funds Precommitment" is a filter for expenditure operations and filters all FM earmarked funds starting from the precommitment level, invoices and payments consuming expenditure budget for the AVC ledger for RBE. Note: If you use this filter in your settings, funds reservations will not be checked.
  • 03 "Funds Commitment" is a filter for expenditure operations and filters all FM earmarked funds starting from the commitment level, invoices and payments consuming expenditure budget for the AVC ledger for RBE. Funds reservations and precommitments are not checked using this filter.
  • 04 "Forecast of Revenue" is a filter for revenue operations and filters all forecasts of revenues, invoices and payments consuming revenue budget for the AVC ledger for RBE.
  • 05 "Invoice" is a filter which can be used for revenue or expenditure operations and filters all invoices and payments for the AVC ledger for RBE. Earmarked funds are not checked using this filter.
  • 06 "Payment" is a filter which can be used for revenue or expenditure operations and filters all payments for the AVC ledger for RBE. Earmarked funds and invoices are not checked using this filter.

    Note
    You cannot use this filter if payments are updated in Funds Management via program RFFMS200, because this program does not access the BCS availability control functions.

Activities

You can use the standard filters. If not, proceed as follows:

  1. Enter your filter choosing the key from the permitted namespace.
  2. Assign the filter type, which can be "Revenue", "Expenditure" or "Revenue and Expenditure".
  3. Select the corresponding line and assign the value types involved.
  4. Save your entries.
