Budgeting and PCP

Hello all
In the configuration of CM , what are the main aspects to be looked at other than Compensation Adminsitration in SPRO.
BUdgeting is a must , I know. What abt PCP ?
Can we go ahead and CM without PCP. We have already done the job pricing and compa-ratios are in place.
Would CM require the Budgets to be created in structure format initially ?

Suresh
so you mean to say Budgets would be needed for sure..
because the financial resources needed to make these compensation adjustments would come from this budget strcuture right ?
Why is Create Budgeting not part of IMG but in Easy Access ? Would the front end users do that on their own later on during the process ?

  • Position Budgeting and Control

    Dear Friends,
                         Can antyone please tell me what is he function of and purpose of node "Position Budgeting and Control".
    i have searched alot about it and all I come to know about it is this that it is soe how realted with PCP and Payroll simulation but I am not getting any sense out of it .
    i mean why to use it. on using it what advantages could be attained in Personnel Cost Planning and Simulation and as well as for Enterprise Compensation Management.
    Currently we are implementing PCP and ECM so wanted to know if position budgeting and control woudl have any realtion with it. its importance while implementing PCP and ECM. and suppose f we dont implement this node that what we are loosing.
    your help and support would be highly appreciated.
    Regards

    Hi, I have lots of written information about Position Budgeting and Control, one of them a nice white paper mhich may give you an understanding of the principles. We evaluated it at a customer and decided "only" to implement PCP. As I understood PBC uses PCP as a motor for collecting plan data, but you will not be able to do detail planning f.ex, as in Personnel cost planning. So as I understood it is amongst others a way of collecting HR financial data from a data basis and integrate it with Financial, a bridge between HR and FI. The commitment processor is the engine for this integration, if I've understood it correct. I can't say that I fully understood the principles either, but if you like I may provide you with some documentation. Do not know how to reach you, though. I also have a comment from a PBC-expert, maybe this will enlighten you (FYI: this is taken out of a context):
    "...PBC is not intended to do detailed budgeting. PBC main feature is the possibility to create commitments / encumbrances and reserve this budget based on salary expenses.  Customers usually spend a big part of their budget in salaries, so this tool offers them the chance to monitor and control this effectively by reserving the budget they will need for a certain period of time (usually the fiscal year) and being able to monitor if there are budget deficiencies in case of salary adjustments or new hires.   PBC only uses the budget from FM to post agains it, but in no way pretends to offer a tool to manipulate this budget, plan or make decisions against the whole budget..."

  • How to differentiate capital budget and expense budget in BCS

    Hello all
    i had a doubt , your inputs are required.
    How to differentiate capital budget and expense budget in BCS
    Thanks
    Alok

    Hi ,
    As per the understanding that i can have from the inputs provided by you , you are moving ahead with a combination of Fund center and commitment item .
    Is it the case that for capital items your GL account would be diffrent as compared to the expense item .
    If that is the case then you can create different commitment item based on the GL and accodingly maintain the derivation strategy .
    Hope this suffices .
    Regards ,

  • Budget and performance report

    Hi,
    I'm new to webi.
    Please tell me the most suitable approach for comparing budget and performance on webi report.
    Each approach has good points and bad points?
    Environment : BO XI 3.1 webi
    Requirement : Comparison of budget and performance on one report.
    Precondition : Data granularities of budget and performance are different. Budget is monthly data. Performance is daily data.
                   Comparison is executed with budget and summarized monthly performance data.
    Approach1:
    DB layer
      create each fact table of budget and performance
    Universe layer
      create one universe from above fact tables.
    Report layer
      create webi report from universe  (summarize performance to monthly data)
    Approach2:
    DB layer
      create each fact tables of budget and performance on database
      create view or one table from above fact tables on database (summarize performance to monthly data)
    Universe layer
      create universe from above view or table
    Report layer
      create webi report from universe
    Approach3:
    DB layer
      create each fact tables of budget and performance on database
    Universe layer
      create derived table from budget and performance  (summarize performance to monthly data)
    Report layer
      create webi report from universe
    Thanks,
    Hiroyasu

    It depends. The simple way is to create universe against the fact tables. And make the Webi do all the analysis work.
    Some customers have concerns on performance, they chose to create additional tables to store the aggregated data based on different granularities. And make universes to connect corresponding tables to any given granularity.
    So there is not absolute answer to your question.

  • Budgeting and control system

    friends,
    we implemented fi, co, mm, sd, pp and project systems. we want to implement budgeting and control system. what is the exact flow of BCS in between these modules,
    regards,

    Hi,
    Prepare Funds Management Installation
    When implementing the Funds Management Government component, you should take care to carry out the individual steps in a particular order. You enter the required preconfigurations and functions at different points in the SAP System.
    So when implementing Funds Management, you should observe the following sequence:
    1. You use the "Enterprise Structure" to create company codes, FM areas, and controlling areas. For more information, see the Enterprise structure IMG in sections:
    a) "Define, Copy, Delete, Check Company Code"
    b) "Maintain FM Area"
    c) "Define, Copy, Delete, Check Controlling Area"
    2. You then assign an FM area to each company code and controlling area relevant to Funds Management.
    For more information, see sections:
    a) Assign company code to FM area
    b) Assign controlling area to FM area
    3. You create your G/L accounts in the General Ledger Accounting menu. For more information, read the chapter: Create G/L accounts in the G/L accounting IMG (FI-GL) under G/L account master records.
    4. Use Financial Accounting customizing to maintain the field status definition groups. These determine which fields in the account can accept input, must be maintained, or are hidden, when you are entering business transactions. For more information, read: "Maintain field status variants" in the Financial Accounting Basic Settings.
    Note that the additional account assignments "Commitment item", "Funds center" and "Fund" will only accept input if you mark the relevant fields as required or optional entries. This applies, however, only to G/L accounts whose commitment items are assigned with the 30 such as a revenue account. G/L accounts whose commitment items are assigned with a transaction other than 30 should have the error hidden.
    If you want to reference earmarked funds when posting a payment, you must define the additional account assignment "Earmarked funds" as a required or optional entry.
    5. Likewise, for Materials Management purchase requisition and purchase order postings which do not go into stock, you must flag the "Commitment item", "Funds center" and "Fund" fields as required or optional entries in order to be able to make entries in them. You can find more information in the Purchasing IMG in section "Maintain account assignment types" .
    6. If you want to integrate inventory management with Funds Management, there are different ways of controlling this, depending on the warehouse concept you chose. For more information, go to the Funds Management IMG and read sections Make Other Settings and Integration with Inventory Management.
    7. If you want to integrate Assets Accounting, you must go to the Funds Management implementation guide and flag as budget relevant the transaction types for the individual transactions (acquisitions and retirements). You can find more information in the IMG Funds Management Government in the section Flag Transaction Types as Budget Relevant.
    8. If you want to integrate Payroll Accounting with Funds Management, you must define funds centers and funds for the individual Infotypes. For more information, see the Funds Management IMG Funds Management Government in the section "Define Start Date for HR Integration (Without HR Commitments Scenario 2)".
    9. If you want to integrate Travel Management with Funds Management, the "funds center", "commitment item" and "fund" fields must be ready to accept input when you post in Travel Expense Accounting. You enter these settings in the Travel Management IMG Dialogue and settlement control -> Screen layout for trip data input -> Set up variable construction for account assignment objects.
    10. You switch to the Funds Management application menu, create your master data (commitment items, funds centers and funds) and then define your account assignment derivation.
    For more information on account assignment derivation in Funds Management, see component Funds Management (PSM-FM) under Account Assignment Derivation as well as section Define Account Assignment Derivation.
    For more information on creating master data, see the component Master data in the componentFunds Management (PSM-FM).
    11. You can then subsequently make the remaining settings via the Funds Management implementation guide. For more information, read the following chapters.
    Further notes
    The Funds Management application component can not be used simultaneously with the components Cash Budget Management and/or Project Cash Management if you use year-dependent master data in Funds Management.
    If you want to use Funds Management with Cash Budget Management and/or Project Cash Management you must note that Cash Budget Management and Project Cash Management only process 10 character commitment items.
    Regards,
    Eli

  • I have prepared a personal budget and sorted the planned expenses by month, but the months are out of order. How do I correct?

    I have prepared a personal budget and sorted the planned expenses by month, but they are out of order. How do I correct?

    David,
    You've got to give us something to go on here. At least post a screen shot so we can see how your data is arranged. I suspect that you may have named the months with text strings rather than as actual Date values, so when you sort they are in alphabetical order rather than date order.

  • How can i subtract budget and actuals amount from gl_balances in discoverer

    I have a problem with a discoverer report.
    The table is GL_BALANCES (Financials), and i tried to subtract data of current year and last year, same month, or data from actuals and budgets amounts.
    Data from actuals have the "A" code in the ACTUAL_FLAG field, and budgets amounts have a "B" code. I construct a cross-tab report with ACTUAL_FLAG field in the "X" axis and the accounts segments in the "Y" axis (From GL_CODE_COMBINATIONS). The problem is: How can i substract budget and actuals amounts? Is the same field but differents columns in report.
    I cannot use analytics function because the version of database does not support that .
    Somebody told me: "...You need to construct a custom folder to handle this..."
    I don't want to finish the reports in Excel...
    Thanks.

    Hi Miguel
    You can either create a database view or custom folder to do this using aliases for the two joins to the same table.
    For example, you need something like this in the body of the SQL:
    select
    act.code_combination_id,
    nvl(act.period_net_dr,0) actual_net,
    nvl(bgt.period_net_dt,0) budget_net,
    nvl(bgt.period_net_dt,0) - nvl(act.period_net_dr,0) diff,
    act.period_name
    from
    gl_balances act,
    gl_balances bgt
    where
    act.set_of_books_id = bgt.set_of_books_id and
    act.code_combination_id = bgt.code_combination_id and
    act.period_name = bgt.period_name
    Of course you will still need to add your own joins to get the code combinations but I trust you get the gist.
    Hope this helps
    Regards
    Michael

  • Budget and non budget GL account

    Dear Experts,
    I have a GL Account which relavent to Budget (I have been ticked it in GL Chart) but this account sametime  this account use for non budget. How am in going to split out? if i don't to create 2 accounts one for budget and one for non budget.
    Thanks.
    Regards,
    Danny

    Hello
    I do not understand the request, the account is or is not relevant to budget ??... As can be two options???
    Still, it strikes me that you could create a user field in the Chart of Accounts that allows you to indicate this condition to take control then you need through searches preformatted.
    I hope you be of help.

  • Budgeting and Forecasting in AWM 11g

    Hi,
    We are looking at implementing the budgeting and forecasting capabilities into an Oracle OLAP 11g Cube built using AWM v11.1.0.6.0A.
    On a very high level, we have the following questions:
    1. What are the options available in AWM 11g for budgeting/forecasting.
    2. What are the limitations/pre-requisites (in terms of cube or AW design).
    3. Steps required to create a budgeting/forecasting model (like what needs to be done in the Cube Scripts) in AWM.
    Any inputs on the above are highly appreciated.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Piyush

    There is, unfortunately, no direct support for Forecasting in 11g AWM or the 11g OLAP API (which sits underneath AWM). But there is support for this in the OLAP DML and I recommend that you look at the OLAP DML Reference documentation. For forecasting, for example, see
    FCOPEN function -- Creates a forecasting context.
    FCSET command -- Specifies the forecast characteristics.
    FCEXEC command -- Executes a forecast and populates Oracle OLAP variables with forecasting data.
    FCQUERY function -- Retrieves information about the characteristics of a forecast or a trial of a forecast.
    FCCLOSE command -- Closes a forecasting context.
    These can be built into a DML PROGRAM, which can in turn be run from a Cube Build Script (as an OLAP DML command step).
    You can write directly to the variables of a cube (provided you have not enabled Materialized Views, which is unlikely in this case).
    There is support in the 11g OLAP API for MODELs in the OLAP DML sense, but this has not been exposed through AWM. You can use the API (Java or XML) to create models, custom members, and rules in models. See
    OLAP Java API Reference (Javadoc)
    In particular you may want to see classes
    oracle.olapi.metadata.mdm.MdmModel and subclass MdmDimensionCalculationModel (to represent a model)
    oracle.olapi.metadata.mdm.MdmAssignment (to represent an assignment of the form lhs = rhs in a model)
    oracle.olapi.syntax.ConsistentSolveSpecification (to associated a model with a cube)
    oracle.olapi.syntax.Expression and subclasses (to define rhs of model assignments)

Maybe you are looking for
