Budget Posting and Funds Management

Hi,
Can some one tell me how I can setup a budget in a fund? I currently can create a fund and then when I try to do a budget posting update w/exp BPUE, it will not allow me to enter a posting amount.
So I can create a budget posting, but when I save it, I get and error asking to provide a posting amount. The problem is the posting amount field is greyed out.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Eric

Hi Maz,
In BCS, you create a plan structure each year like 2008, 2009, 2010 and you create budget adresses in the 2008 plan structure and posting adresses in 2008 plan structure
Budget adresses are saved in the ledger 9F and posting adresses are saved in the ledger 9A and AVC in ledger 9H
When you create budget and posting adresses in plan structure this means that only thoses combinations Funds, Funds center, commitment item will have budget in FMBB and will be used in earmarked funds and real postings like 9A
Simply if budget adress is not created you acn not enter a budget in 9F table FMBDT
If posting adress is not created you can not for example create a funds commitment with FMZ1. any way to update the table FMIOI or impossible to create an invoice with FB60 referencing the funds commit in order to update the table FMIFIIT
AT closing you copy the different budget adresses and the posting adresses in the next plan structure for example 2009. There is a tcode for that.
I hope i have been clear

Difference between controlling budgetting and funds management

Hi All,
Can any one please explain me about the differece between controlling budgeting and funds management.
What are the additioanl features available in funds management when compared to budgetting in controllin
Thanks in Advance
Raka

Hi Raka,
FUNDS MANAGEMENT
The mySAP Public Sector solution plans and controls the flow
of revenues and expenditures, guides you through planning and
creating budgets, and uses active availability control to monitor
management appropriation. Funds management capabilities
simplify the design of budget plans using special planning techniques
and make it possible to differentiate provisional budget
plans. The solution supports centralized and decentralized
planning and budget execution of funds.
Controlling budgets is a headache for businesses of all sizes. Many smaller businesses start off
on the right foot by putting in place a good book-keeping system, but then fail to exercise
proper financial control and end up in trouble. The only way to make sure that you make a
profit is to control the budget efficiently. To do this, you need to estimate your sales income
reasonably accurately, estimate your costs precisely, and keep both under control. You also
need to charge the right price for your end product in your chosen market(s). It is important
systematically to collect all financial documents in a methodical way, and keep all your figures
up to date on a daily basis. This actionlist will look at some of the most common problems in
controlling a budget, and suggest ways to tackle them

How to release the budget in SAP Funds Management

Hi
How to release the budget in SAP Funds Management. Please let me know the proceedure and the transaction code
Tks

Hi,
The answer depends on if you are using Former Budgeting or BCS.
1) If you are using Former Budgeting:
a. You should use transaction FR51 to enter Release or FR55 to distribute it.
2) If you are using BCS:
a. Within FMBBC transaction you have the option to release the budget, use document type as REL (release).
b. You can activate the automatic release for each budget profile in Customizing of Funds Management Government. To do this, in IMG select Funds Management Government ® Budgeting and Availability Control (Former Budgeting) ® Budget Profiles (Former Budgeting) ® Set Up Budget Profiles.
With the automatic release, the corresponding background releases for expenditures FM account assignments with budget transfers are also posted. Take note that the maximum amount that this automated release can transfer from the sender is the amount that has already been released.
If you do not activate the automated release, the maximum amount that can be transferred from the sender is that which has not yet been released.
c. You can use the mass transaction for release, which is FMMPRELE.
I hope that this answer your inquiry.
Best Regards,
Vanessa Barth.

Commitment management and fund management

hi kings
I am unable to understand the Commitment management and fund management. What is actual role and function , objectives. What is the importance and why we useing the commitment mangt and fund magt.
regards
ram

Hello
As far as controlling is concerned, it is used to enter and analyze commitments at an early stage and control them in the module.
Example Po's and PR lead to financial commitments and the costs would be incurred in future, so commitments are included in funds monitoring.
For integration CO and MM need to integrated. The tasks created in MM are transferred to CO.
You would have various activities in commitments.
Funds commitments can be created in IO for orders, projects, cost centers etc
As far as funds managements is concerned, you could create and execute budgets.You could budget revenues and expenditures for areas of responsibility.
Funds management need to integrated with BCS(budget control system),GL,SD and MM and CO.
Also, you could analyse the source and use of funds and monitor variance and means to check and control.

Exclude WBS Budget Checking in Funds Management

Dear SAP Community,
We have activate the Availability Control in PS module for line item posting using WBS element as cost object, and in FM module for line item posting using cost center as cost object.
Since the FM module active, for every posting, the system require assignment to funds center. Therefore, we assigned all WBS elements into one Funds Center called WBSDUMMY.
Our requirement for a project is to have budget checking in WBS element level.
Our current settings already exclude WBSDUMMY funds center assigned to FM Budget Profile in "Availability Control: Specific Tolerances". But, for every posting that use WBS element as its cost object, warning message of "Payment Budget Exceeded" in funds center WBSDUMMY always appeared.
Is there any way to avoid the budget checking of WBS in FM module?
Can we create the FM Budget Profile without warning/error message and assigned it to WBSDUMMY funds center? If yes, is there anyone can help me on the specific settings? Since I can't found the configuration/settings to define availability control action besides the SAP standards.
Appreciate your input
Thank you and best regards,
Fitria

So in other words, you want to suppress the budget message received whenever the fund center = WBSDUMMY?
If so, then I would suggest trying this...
Create a tolerance profile to be used solely for the WBSDUMMY fund center.
The tolerance profile would be something like this...
Tolerance profile name = DWBS (for example)
Ceiling type = Expenditures, Activity group = ++, Order = 1, click the Inactive setting ", Message type = Information, Usage = 999.00
Then set up a derivation strategy for tolerance profiles (FMAVCDERITPROF) solely for the WBSDUMMY fund center that basically says when the fund center = WBSDUMMY, then derive tolerance profile DWBS...
Derivation type = Assignment, Definition tab constant = DWBS, Target field = TOLPROF
Condition = ACO_ADDRESS RFUNDSCTR (fund center) = WBSDUMMY
So when the fund center is WBSDUMMY, the tolerance profile DWBS is derived, and the entry in the tolerance profile is inactive, therefore no warning or information message is received. The key is that the entry in the tolerance profile is inactive.

Budget availablity in funds management

hi
Kindly explain at what stage committment item update in Funds management. Client requirement is following report format
cost center GL budget value actual value open PR value Open PO values Available budget
r

Hi,
Commitment item is a master data in FM. Please, read this information for basics in FM:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/f0/ca33a5260211d28a430000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
As for your reporting, it's possible to create one in Report Painter, based on 4FM library. You can create the colmuns based on Value type in order to distinguish between PO, PR, etc.

Exclude budget update in Funds Management for particular FI document type

HI FM gurus !!
We have an issue in FM .We do the service entry for Transporters for the whole years charges at one time . ( for some reason it cant be done for the month) So we have to pass the FI entry for the Prepaid Expenses. But when we do this entry in FI corresponding effect goes in FM and the Budget for this committment item gets INCREASED. THIS WE DONT WANT since this temperorily available budget may get used for other things. This is the background .
so All we would like to do is to prevent the budget update in FM for this Prepaid entry. How can we do this ? is there any config or BADI ?
PLEASE ADVICE

Payment Budget Exceeded in Funds Management Error BP629

Hi All
I am facing the Below error while doing the FB50 transaction.
"Item 002 20020001 /EXPENDITURE payment budget exceeded"
I have created the commitment item "Expenditure" to post the expenses to the budget.
I have made the budget entry into the system for Expenditure as well as Revenue Commitment Item.
I am able to post revenue posting successfully with FB50 transaction through revenue commitment item but facing the above error for expenditure commitment item.
Regards,
Dimpesh Ray

Hi Dimpesh,
Check whether the budget has been released (consumable) if you have made budget release setting in FM . If you have defined consumable budget types in Customizing, only these budget types will be considered as "releasable" budget.

BAPI_0036_CREATE does not post budget to Funds Management

Hi,
We are using BAPI_0036_CREATE to create budget for a grant and posting to FM. It is creating a document in GM in 'unreleased' status, but not posting to Funds Management.
We are passing FM data in the function module, but for some reason its not posting to FM. The Grant doc type is 'Unreleased' and is in Award phase.
Does anyone know how to create budget document in released status and posting to FM.
Thanks.

Hi Rob,
This budget is related to Grants. First we are creating budget for Grant, and then release it to FM, where the budget will be created in FM. The release part is not working.. hence it is not creating budget in FM.
Thanks.

PSM - Funds Management - Subsequent Posting (transaction FMB0)

Good day to all forumites. I am currently implementing Funds Management at our company (City Power Johannesburg South Africa) an electricity utility. The aim of implementing FM is to activate active availibility control (AVC) for cost center/cost element expenditure. We use cost element/center planning for budgeting purposes and intend to remain so for the future. We are on ECC6 and Funds Management has also been upgraded to the latest version.
I have made the configuration settings as I think best including a full derivation strategy for cost elements/centers to commitment items/funds centers on a one-to-one basis i.e. for every cost element/center combination there is a corresponding entry in table FMFMOACP91000001. This table is created as resut of creating the derivation steps with transactions FMDERIVER.
I have sucessfully transferred all CO Plan Data with transaction FMCYCOPI_CO form CO Planning to FM. My problem arises with the transfer of actual CO postings from CO to FM using transaction FMB0 (subsequent posting). When running a test sample of previously posted documents (in CO) I get error messages which refer to a funds center required in the derivation strategy. The error message isn't very clear to me as I have as stated created a derivation strategy. I am not sure if for e.g. if there is a G/L account as offsetting account in the CO posting document it creates the error message. I have created an additional step in the derivation strategy to link all our gl accounts to one commitment item but this also does not seem to fix the problem.
During the implementaion there have been several instances where notes had to be applied. This was as result of error messages I had encountered during the initial testing after the base configuration had been completed. I am not sure if there could be a program error.
I would appreciate any suggestions/advice on fixing the posting problem.
Best Regards

Hi Eli thank you very much for your help. By activating the trace I have removed half of my error messages. Most of the error messages relate to secondary cost elements which I have assigned per cost center to a generic commitment item and funds center i.e. many to one as suggested in the SAP Help documentation. What now remains is that the second line of a document for e.g. of an entry where an order for e.g. PM Order is referenced as object in the document line. I tried creating a second derivation step with the cost element and PM order field as source fields and a common funds center and commitment item as destination fields. The pm number range is used as the source field range as the numbers are too many for me to make a field entry with each individual pm order number. The error as described above however remains. I am not sure if I am creating the second derivation step incorrectly as it says on the screen the steps have to be in logical ord
Can you perhaps suggest a way forward in terms of a derivation step whereby the system would recognise an order and derive the generic destination field(s) as explained above.

DPRs and DPs are reducing the commitments creatd by POs in Funds Management

In Funds Management, Purchase orders are creating commitments. Then Down payment requests and Down payments are created against these purchase orders. Hence, these Down payment requests and Down payments are reflected in the Purchase order history. But these down payments and down payment requests created with reference to Purchase Orders are reducing the commitments created by the Purchase orders in Funds Management. The business requirement is that only GR should be reducing the commitment and then consuming the budget. Down payment requests and Down payments should not have any impact on the commitment created by Purchase orders. How to do this ?

Hi,
Please, refer to this Re: How to exclude value types 58 and 61 from Budget check in Funds Management
