In this IMG activity, you can:

  • Create new budget profiles
  • Specify the parameters for new budget profiles
  • Change existing budget profiles

To allocate budgets to your orders, you need to create a user-defined budget profile, or use one provided in the system.

The following parameters are relevant for order budgets:

  • Planning interval

    You need to specify the following:

    • Start year for budgeting
    • Period into the past, from the start year, for which budgeting is possible
    • Period into the future, from the start year, for which budgeting is possible
    • Whether the budget is based on overall or annual values
  • Display
    • The standard view to be displayed next to the budget value when the function is used.
    • Default values for the number of decimal places and the scaling factor
  • Whether availability control runs against annual or overall budget

    The activation type controls availability control. There are three activation types:

    0 = Cannot activate

    This activity type may cause an already active availability control to be deactivated.

    1 = Automatic activation when budget is assigned

    You need to maintain at least one tolerance limit for the budget profile.

    2 = Background activation when percentage of consumption is exceeded

    You need to enter a Percentage of consumption in background activation. The percentage of consumption represents the relationship of committed funds to the budget as a percentage.

    You need to maintain at least one tolerance limit for the budget profile to have the system check the posting.

Note:
If you have activated availability control for orders, projects and Funds Management, performance may suffer. To avoid performance difficulties, you should decide whether you want availability control either only in Funds Management or in orders and projects. The setting for availability control in orders is in Maintain budget profile.

If you change the availability control settings after the budget has already been allocated, you should have the system recalculate the values already assigned. To do this, call up the function for activating availability control "Budget -> Activate availability control" and start the program with the indicator "Update all assigned funds" switched on.

To recalculate assigned values, choose Set up availability control again.

Activities

  1. Check the budget profiles included in the standard SAP System by choosing "Details".
  2. If necessary, change the existing budget profiles to suit your requirements or create new budget profiles by choosing "New entries".
  3. Store the budget profile in the order type.

Additional Hints

For further information on availability control, see the SAP library under Project System -> Reference -> Availability control.
