Use

In this IMG activity you can define the following basic settings for the commitment carryforward:

  • Permit Account Assignment Selection
    You can specify that the user can determine the target account assignment when they carry forward commitment online (Program RFFMCCF1).

    If you want to permit the account assignment selection, you must create a derivation step with step type "derivation rule" in your derivation strategy for the commitment carryforward which can be assigned to several receiver account assignments in the rule entries of the sender account assignment. When carrying forward commitment Online, the user can display a list of the assigned receiver account assignments and select an account assignment for each line item to be carried forward in column Account Assignment Selection.

    However, please note that an account assignment selection is not possible when carrying forward down payments (Program RFFMCCF_DP). It is therefore necessary to ensure that only one receiver account assignment can be derived for value type 61 (down payments) in the derivation strategy when carrying forward commitment.
  • Activate Commitment Carryforward with Document Chains
    This way you can define whether the commitment carryforward should be executed after the standard procedure (program RFFMCCF1) or with document chains (program RFFMCCF1_CHAIN).
    For a commitment carryforward with document chains, the previous and subsequent document item are also carried forward with each commitment document item provided that the documents of the corresponding value type can be carried forward.
  • Activate Approval Procedure
    You can specify that the commitment carryforward should run a one-level or a two-level approval procedure.

    If you activate the one-level approval procedure, you can request the open items to be carried forward with program Closing Operations: Carry Forward Open Items. (RFFMCCF1) The selected documents are grouped together under a lot number and are locked for new selection. You then carry out the carryforward for each lot number using program Approve Open Items (RFFMCCF_APPROVE) which requires special authorization.

    If you activate the two-level approval procedure, the open items are registered for the carryforward as with the one-level approval procedure using program RFFMCCF1.
    The actual carryforward takes place in two steps by executing the program RFFMCCF_APPROVE twice:
    • In the first step you approve the carryforward for the open items that can be carried forward.
    • In the second step, you define whether only commitment or commitment budget should also be carried forward.

Requirements

Prerequisite for the two-level approval procedure is that the budget control system (BCS) is active. For more information, see 'Activating BCS', under Activate Global Functions for Budget Control System (BCS)".

Standard settings

In the standard system, the commitment carryforward does not support an account assignment selection for the receiver FM account assignment. If your derivation strategy is not defined accordingly, the system issues an error message.

In the standard system, the document items of a document chain are carried forward independently from each other.

No approval procedure is used in the standard system.

Activities

Example

Examples of the commitment carryforward with document chains can be found in the program documentation Program documentation (RFFMCCF1_CHAIN).
