Carryforward Commitment and consumption.

Dear Sapgurus,
We have implemented/Activated Funds Management in current year 2011.
we are facing following issues :-
1) we have many Open PO & PR from fiscal Year 2008 and while Carryforward the same with T-code (FMJ2) it update only from 2010 and doesnt show any data of 2008/2009
2) For Eg. PO Commitement value is $ 1000 of year 2010 and It allows me to carryforward in the year 2011, and in year 2011 i have made GR of $ 300 so balance of 2010 is $ 700 (1000 - 300 = 700),
now i need to put control on the system that current year (2011) PO and GR should not consume this $ 700 (as this is for previous year and should allow for year 2010 only)
Hope to get possitive feedback.
Regards.
Tej

Hi,
1) if you activated FM after the documents were created, you'll have to reconstruct them in FM (upon requirement)
2) when you carry-forward PO with a budget, then the budget is already consumed by the remaining commitment and cannot be consumed again, i.e. only G/R (or I/R depending on the settings) will be allowed in terms of budget control. G/R(I/R) will reduce the commitment and increase the actual consumption, but the budget itself will remain totally consumed by the original PO

Budget checking during proucerment and consumption

Hi experts
My client is having two budgets. procurement budget and consumption budget.Both are having different figures.
PR,PO,GR,Inv and Payment is related to procurement budget.and Goods Issue linked to Consumption Budget.
While Issuing Goods they asking budget check.
i have created payment budget Here, while doing PR budget check will be done.
While doing Goods issue consumption GLs will hit and budget check should happen at consumption GL level.
now i am using fund center and commitment item master data. i am geting bit confusion regarding some issue.
1. i want to know can i map derivation rule procurement budget and consumption by using only fund center and commitment item with payment budget type .
OR
2. Can i create another master data fund for both proc.and consumptn budget for maping derivation rule.
thanks & regards

Hi alex
thank a lot for your reply. i need some sugestion i configured the derivaion like this. i used only fund center and commitment item
GL account to Commitment item
GL account to Valuation class to Commitment item
Cost element to commitment item
Cost center to fund center
Commitment Item to Fund Center
for procurement i configured throught GL account to Valuation class to Commitment item
and for goods issued(consumption) i configured Cost center to fund center (budget checking required during goods issue)
let me know if i did any mistake
thanks

Actuals after Commitment and Budget Carry forwards

We recently did a Commitment Carry Forward using CJCF from year 2009 to 2010 (but did not do budget carry forward) and this added the Assigned amount by USD 100 in 2010 for the WBS Element.
I have some doubts and my questions are :
1) when I do the Goods Receipt in 2010 for the commitments carried forward, will the system check for 2009 budget or 2010 budget ?
2) if it checks for 2009 budget and adds to the actuals in 2010, will it not be an incorrect business process ?
3) what would have happened if the budget had also been carried forward from 2009 to 2010.
Thanks for any response.

In budget tolerence limit setting if you have maintained budget check ++ means for all trancastion the system will check for budget against posting values whenever you execute any transaction system will compare the values against available budget of posting year.
in you case at the time po coiitments are created in 2009 and checked for available budget for 2009 now you are posting GR / service entry in year 2010 at this time your PO commitments are going to transfer to actuals but as posting is happening in 2010 system will check for the budget availability for year 2010.
so for any annual budget project at the end of year you have to carryforward commitments and buget to next year.

Carryforward commitment items of the POs

Hi,
We use PSM (Public Sector Management) for controlling budgets. Purchase orders with commitments are created and at the end of the year, commitments are carried forward to the next year.
From logistics point, I would like to know whether any report gives carryforward commitment items of the POs?
Thanks.
Munna.

Hi,
You have to change the nature of your commitment item (FMCIA) and set financial transaction to 30 for all commitment items which correspond to expenses. If you have already postings made on this CI, then it would be impossible to change it; in this case create a new one and adjust derivation rules - FMDERIVE (or defualt in G/L- FS00).

Follow-up question on BOM production and consumption of same item

Awhile back, I asked the question about whether it made sense to have a BOM structured to simultaneously produce and consume an item. BOM that needs to produce and consume same component
Thanks for the help and it does what I thought it should. We have a local difference of opinion on the consumption of primary components, though. To attempt to ensure that we account for the bleed-off of materials into a vacuum system, we set up a BOM like this
Material A    498.379
Material B    332.253
Material C     14.914
Material D     22.371
Material E     64.317
Material F    103.570
Material F     -35.804 (This is the quantity vacuumed away, treated as by-product.)
to cover a recipe card structured like this
Material A    481.150
Material B    320.775
Material C     14.400
Material D     21.600
Material E     62.100
Material F     100.00
The difference of opinion is whether to recognize the reclaimed material (Material F) at all on the BOM, with a minority saying that we will not consume (and therefore not order) enough of materials A through E. They say that "you have to put the same amount of good ingredients in as you produce because it's a closed loop system".
So the other approach would be a BOM like this
Material A    534.252
Material B    357.852
Material C     15.840
Material D     23.760
Material E     68.310
The material reclaimed (Material F) is sourced not only from this particular vacuum system, but from other vacuum systems outside the blending operation.
It seems to me that the first approach is correct, because we recognize consumption and production of the reclaimed item, and proportionately increase the component items to recognize that more are needed than will go out as good product. Even the reclaim becomes reclaim. The amounts vacuumed off seem to be consistent at 3.57%.
Which approach is correct?

Thank you for the reply. The reclaimed material can be as much as 11% of the total material made. Last year, over one million kilograms were worked back into the product as reclaim, and the metals are somewhat expensive (not like precious metals, but they are not trivial, either).
Accuracy versus precision is always something to consider, but I think it's important enough to follow, especially because it is sourced from several processes. The sourcing from the other sources means that the reclaimed material from those sources has already been reported as production of the primary product which consumes the virgin materials, so I think it should be re-introduced into the flow as a separate item (Material F)
The primary argument I want to settle is the business about how we won't order enough component materials if we use the BOM that shows simultaneous production and consumption. I think under the approach in which we ignore the reclaim, we will consume more components from the backflush location than we physically use and would then order too much material because of using a BOM that pulls only virgin materials.

I was able finally to delete unwanted text boxes in my document; however, now my second page is missing and there are several following pages in a language that appears to be Latin. What sin have I committed and how do I atone to get my second page back?

I was able finally to delete unwanted text boxes in my Pages document; howver, the result is that the 2nd page of my document is missing and there are now several following pages in a language that appears to be latin. What sin have I committed and how do I atone?

10 marks for recognising the Latin (sort of) that is the placeholder text in your template.
You are using a Word Processing template. WP templates have content flowing from page to page. As one page fills up, a new one is created. If some of that text is deleted or displaced the pages retract.
When you combine text, invisibles like word spaces, returns, tabs, page breaks etc with objects that have text wrap set, the mix can behave in an apparent odd fashion.
Start with showing where everything is:
Menu > View > Show Layout/Invisibles
Start with getting rid of any excess returns you may have used to "position" things. Next cut and paste objects like textboxes, shapes, charts and tables "Inline" ie in as part of the text. If necessary also turn off text wrap on objects or minimise it so that doesn't push text completely out of the way.
Insert Section breaks in the Text where you want fixed breaks in the layout these will provide separation between layout on different pages.
Basically you need to clean up your layout or think about doing it another way.
If there is a lot of layout, you will need to learn Pages methods for doing this in a WP template or do it in a Layout template where each page is individual and all objects are floating with no default text area.

Commitment and Payment budget

Hi,
I want to have control over my commitments and payments. Is it possible to maintain both commitment and payment budget separately?
Moderator: Yes, it depends on the Update Profile. Please, read help.sap.com material for PSM-FM

Example of payment budget
Use update profile 101 and you will have a payment budget. this means:
earmarked funds (reservations, precom, com) are updated in the FM ledger payment budget
real (invoice and payments) are also updated in FM ledger payment budget. Attention. if you are in release before 5.0 you have to run RFFMS200 program in order to see the invoices paid. In ECC 6.0 it is online if you are a new FM customer.
Via MM PR, PO, GR, invoices MIRO and payments are also updated in FM ledger payment budget
Example of parallel ledgers commitment budget and payment budget
You can not use only commitment budget ledger if you want to see your real invoices and payments
Some clients like EU and others use separate FM ledgers. Then you have to enter twice data in the two ledgers.
Then they use update profile for this like 500 or 350(please check).
Commitments (earmarked funds and PR, PO) update the ledger commitment budget and invoices and payments are updated in ledger commitment budget.
Hope this is a litle bit clear.
Before implementing FM it is important to ask what your client wants and ask if you don't know the best update profile to use to SAP AG

Intermittent Commits and What is the Default Autocommit setting??

I get intermittent commits during the BC4J application processing. Is there a way to enforce explicit commits and rollbacks while users are filling the JSP form?
Is this a bug?
Thanks,
Arnold

For Oracle database, I'm sure that by default we set auto-commit off.
Can you reproduce your problem in a simple client program like this:
package test;
import oracle.jbo.client.Configuration;
import oracle.jbo.*;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
    String _am = "yourpackage.YourModule", _cf = "YourModuleLocal";
    ApplicationModule am = Configuration.createRootApplicationModule(_am,_cf);
    // Do some things here with the VO's in your AppModule that
    // illustrate the inadvertent commit behavior...
    Configuration.releaseRootApplicationModule(am,true);
}

Control of Fund on Procurement and consumption level

Plz explain how can we control fund on procurement and consumption level.
Also what is the difference between superior fund centre and fund centre
Thanks & Regards
Raj

Hi,
Superior fund centre is an entity within hierarchy object for fund centres. You can use it in reporting and budget address definitions.
Regarding your second question, you should define different budget lines for the procurement and consumption and create a derivation rule according to your business requirements in order to derive the right FM objects for every process.

How Forecast Release and Consumption for Variant Configuration

Hi experts,
we are planning in our project how to Forecast Release and Consumption for Variant Configuration
can you explain me
Regards,
babu

Hi Sivaramakrishna,
We tried the same but what is complicating is having "market" attribute of customer in R/3 and planning forecast in DP at the "market" level. There is no customer as such in DP. THere is only market. We could release forecast at market leve using "consumption group". But I am trying to figure out how to have the sales orders consume forecast at the location, product and market level in SNP.
Today we have our sales orders to consume forecast in SNP at location-product level. we are trying to take this to "location-product-market" level in SNP.
I think we need to use some settings for characteristic based or variable consumption I think...but not clear.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks for taking time to reply.

Bom and consumption

hi,
may i know what is the relationship between bom and consumption (dr consumption cr raw mats inventory)?
thanks
rgds

Hi,
Raw material consumption is used in production order for making FG product where 3 or 4 material are used for making FG Product. Whereas BOM is nothing But anlysis all material required to make FG product.
