Use
In this IMG activity, you activate the release functionality for your FM area.
Requirements
Standard settings
SAP does not provide any default settings. Therefore, in the default, the release functionality is not activated.
Activities
In this IMG activity you specify whether you want to use a release scenario to release budget for an FM area of your organization. If you choose the release scenario, budget is released following a one-step procedure. The budget release is carried out for the same account assignment elements as the ones to which budget has been assigned. Only one release value is then checked by availability control (for standard ledgers defined according to BCS settings).
You can also use the release function for releasing revenues in your organization. For this, checkmark the column called "Release on Revenues".
Note
It is necessary to distinguish between revenues that are related to a commitment item category and real revenues, that is, actual incoming amounts. The same is true for expenditures and real expenditures (outgoing amounts).
In the default, the release functionality is applicable to real expenditures (outgoing amounts), regardless of the commitment item type. For more information see the information on ceiling types.
If you want to control your real revenues (incoming amounts), you can do this using the BCS Availability Control functionality. If the release function is active, and you want to carry out availability control for real revenues, you must also activate the release on real revenues.
Example
Further notes
Please note that you can also customize the document type for your budget entry documents, in order to have an automatic release for each budget amount entered. You do this in the IMG activity Define Entry Document Types.
For further information, see the documentation on the available scenarios for value types.
