Use

Using this Business Add-In (BAdI), you can assign any FM account assignment to a group of FM account assignments, which can be identified by a grouping key. If an active implementation exists, the system ensures that:

  • posting and budget addresses belong to the same group
  • in AVC the grouping keys of budget addresses and the corresponding control objects are identical
  • in the case of residual carryforward, the grouping key of the sender FM account assignment is the same as that of the receiver FM account assignment
  • the mass transfer of residual budget supports only one grouping key for all referenced sender FM account assignments and one for the receiver FM account assignments.

Example

In your FM area, the multi-year budget execution has been activated. The budget ID has been coded into the fund data, so that each fund is uniquely assigned to a budget ID. You need to ensure the following:

  • Every posting object and the corresponding budget object must be assigned to the same budget ID.
  • In availability control, the control object and the corresponding budget objects must have the same budget ID.

You do this by creating an implementation of this BAdI, which returns the budget ID as the grouping key for each FM account assignment.

Requirements

In order to use the grouping key for multi-year budget execution, you must first activate period-based encumbrance tracking (PBET) in the IMG activity Override Update Profile.

Activities

After calling up the IMG activity, a dialog box appears, in which you can enter a name for the implementation.

If you have already made other implementations for this BAdI, another dialog box appears, in which the existing implementations are displayed. In this case, choose Create, and proceed as follows:

  1. In the dialog box, enter a name for the BAdI implementation in the Implementation field, and choose Create.

    The screen for creating BAdI implementations is now displayed.

  2. Enter a short text for the implementation in the Short text for implementation field.
  3. From the tab index, choose Interface.

    The Name of implemented class field is already filled on the tab page, as a class name was automatically assigned to the implementation when you named it.

  4. Save your entries, and assign the implementation to a development class.
  5. Place the cursor on the method, and double-click to enter method processing.
  6. Enter the code for the implementation between the statements method <Interface name> ~ <Name of method> and endmethod.
  7. Save and implement your code. Return to the Edit Implementation screen.
  8. Save the entries on the Edit Implementation screen.

    Note: You can also create an implementation, and then activate it at a later time. In such a case, end the processing stage at this point.

  9. Choose Activate

    The code you stored in the method will be run when the application program is executed.
