In this step you can define a budget tolerance value for a budget version.

If you define a budget tolerance value, any deficits detected by the budget consistency check that are within the tolerance limits will be ignored. The error message is skipped so that you can continue working.

You determine the budget tolerance to be set for a budget version or the maximum deficit using program BPDIST04.

Note:
To retain a correct maximum deficit in program BPDIST04, you should previously have reconstructed the distributed values using program BPDIST01.
You reconstruct the distributed values in the Funds Management menu under Budgeting -> Tools -> Reconstruct Distributed.

Budget tolerance and budget consistency check

When the consistency check is deactivated, it is also possible to save budget versions if the deficits exceed the set tolerance value.

When the consistency check is activated, the budget version can only be saved if the deficit does not exceed the set budget tolerance.

The outputted error list from the budget consistency check only includes values, which exceed the budget tolerance. If no budget tolerance value exists, all deficits are displayed.

Example

After euro currency conversion, you are not able to save a budget version because there are inconsistencies in the budget.

Using program BPDIST04 you can determine the maximum deficit and set it as the budget tolerance value for the relevant budget version.

Requirements

Before defining the budget tolerance, you need to have completed the following activities:

  1. Euro conversion
  2. Reconstruction of distributed values
  3. Determination of the maximum deficit using program BPDIST04

Activities

Enter a budget tolerance value for the budget version in FM area/fiscal year and save.
