Documentation
Definition
Time frame of available budget authority.
Use
During the budget period, the organization may commit, obligate, and encumber funds (terminology varies). After it, the organization may only post follow-on documents.
Dependencies
The budget period always works together with the fund account assignment element in Funds Management (FM).
Example
Budget Period A: 2000-2010
Budget Period B: 2005-2015
The actuals and commitments recorded then are differentiated by the period of time on which authority was granted to a particular fund.
Fund F1 Budget Period: A
Fund F2 Budget Period: A
Fund F2 Budget Period: B
When operations are performed with the fund and the budget period, the receiver is the one that gets the funds from the transaction. This helps you with a detailed proof of origin for your funds.
