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, the partner fields help you track the proof of origin for your funds.
