Commitment carryforward(Payment budget) error

Hello,
While trying to carryforward commitments via FMJ2(for chain documents) the system gave the following error message (select at least one line).There was no line that i could select besides the actual purchase requisition/order line .I highlighted the PR/PO line but the error continued.
I have been unable to carryforward the open commitments from the last fiscal year to the new one because of this error.Will appreciate ideas

Hi have made some progress on the issue but am now having issues with downpayment carryforward.
In transaction fmj_anz (carryforward down payment & downpayment clearing)i keep getting the message that valuetype 61(downpayment) is not allowed for carryforward
I have gone through the config settings in BCS- commitment closing operations.I have been able to assign downpayments value type in all areas but in enter settings for commitment carryforward payment budget
Its not available in the valutype field for selection.
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.

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

Commitment carryforward (Former budgeting)

Dear all,
After having upgraded from 4.6C to ECC 6.0, we tried to cancel commitment carryforward (RFFMCCFR) and we obtained the following message : "no item found for the reversal of the commitment carryforward". Table FMIOI is well updated with amount type 0350.
Can u help me ?
Thanks

Hello Jean-Didier,
After an upgrade, table FMIT might not be correctly updated, and this may also cause problems in CF processes.
Please have a look at this note and follow its instructions:
977016 FMIT: Missing totals records in Funds Management
check whether RFFMRC04 shows any inconsistency and let us know, Ok?
thanks and best regards, Mar

Error Payment budget exceed

Hi Experts,
I have an issue about payment budget. We had open item Rs. 37000 for previous year 2009 & same would carryforward to 2010 year through FMJ2. But in FMJ2 there is no document number & I tried to reverse the same document but there was no document in FMJ3 also. How do solve the same ?
Rgds
Suma

Hello Mani,
Please let me know if I am understanding correctly:
you are running FMJ2 and trying to CF a certain PO.
if the PO is not selected, you should first make sure it still has an open amount and review your settings for Carry forward:
Public Sector Management->Funds Management Government->Closing Operations->Enter Default Settings
And
Commitment Closing Operations->
Enter Settings for Commitment Carryforward Payment Budget
and/or
Enter Settings for Commitment Carryforward Commitment Budget
And make sure that value type 51 is allowed for CF
If you are getting Budget exceeded error in FMJ2, since you are running CF without budget, it means that the CF of your PO will release budget in the previous year and consume budget in the following year. If budget in the new year is not sufficient, you will get an Availability control error.
There is a parameter in FMJ2 which allows you to decide how to run it:
- No Availability control
- Update without AVC check
- AVC checked
Hope this helps you

Accounts reassignments during commitment carryforward

We had change in organizational structure and now need functional restructuring during year change operations.
We want to make account reassignments with the carryover.
If in the Customizing of Funds Management I have defined that commitment carryforward and budget carryover are possible.
Account assignment change is allowed during the commitment carryforward of purchase orders.
Strategy for Reassignment with relationships of the u201Coldu201D to the u201Cnewu201D account assignment is made.
And now I ran FMJ2 to do purchase order carryforward.
But it appears to have ignored the assignment change, and ignored any subsequent activity applied to the new assignment.
Assignment stay as it was.
Has anybody else enountered this? Can anybody tell me what may be causing this, and how to fix it?
Thank you.

Eli, thank you very much!))
Now derivation strategy for reassingnment works! But it works wrong - I don't understand where I made a mistake.
Let me describe my derivation for reassignment.
I have 4 steps. In first three I initialyze:
1. Initialization of commetment item - Derivation performed successfully. Value before:1, Value after: (blank)
2. Initialization of Fund - Derivation performed successfully. Value before:3, Value after: (blank)
3. Initialization of Fund center - Derivation performed successfully. Value before:7, Value after: (blank)
4. Derivation rule, with simple rule value, for example: 1/3/7(source fields)=1/3/1(target fields) - Derivation not performed. Reason:source field contains no value.
And now I have 2 mistake messages in FMJ2:
The value BLANK/SPACE is not valid; acct assgmt element Funds Center (strategy for reassignment) - Message no. FMCF803
The value BLANK/SPACE is not valid; acct assgmt element Commitment Item (strategy for reassignment) Message no. FMCF803

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.

Payment budget check with other superior commitment item

Dear Experts,
One issue regarding checking of payment budget.
Superior Commitment items : A1
Actual Commitment Items: A01,A02
Superior Commitment items : B1
Actual Commitment Items: B01,B02
Client can assign commitment budgets at A01,A02,B01 & B02 Level.
But Payment Budget can be done only at A1 level in some cases. At the time of payments budget can be consumed from A1 for A01,A02,B01 & B02.
How can achieve derviation strategy to meet this requirement.

Hi.
'But Payment Budget can be done only at A1 level in some cases'-what are the cases?
Actually you can build you Budget addresses depend on posting ledger(9A,9B). So you can use FMDT_READ_HIER_CMMT_ITEM function,where overwrite HIROOT_FIP with CMMTITEM, if PLDNR=9A. In this case budget address will be Superior CI if ledger=9A.
For another ledger (if actual=budget) you can to not write derivation, it'd be by default

Enhance Budget Entry Documents for Commitment Carryforward

Anyone implemented the badi: Enhance Budget Entry Documents for Commitment Carryforward before?
May I know what changes are required in order to ensure that the budget entry documents is in local currency (SGD) when commitment carryforward is in foreign currency (USD)?

Hi,
So, you want the budgetary document to be posted in local currency? I don't ask for reasons, though, as you probably know, even if the document is posted in foreign currency, local currency amount would be also there and the AVC would be performed also in local currency. But, if you need to change the currency, you can indeed use this BADI and modify I_BUDGET_ENTRY_DOC_SENDER and I_BUDGET_ENTRY_DOC_RECEIVER parameters, changing the currency and the amount.
I'm not sure about your remark 'change code' as BADI does not come with any code at all. You will have to implement the BADI providing your own code to change the required fields.

Payment selection or commitment carryforward locked

Hi experts. We have 7 companies working in the same productive system. We are getting this message "Payment selection or commitment carryforward locked .." when two companies are trying to execute FMF0 at the same time.   I need your advice, how can I handle this situation. I tried to schedule FMF0 execution for every company, but their are complaining with this solution.
Regards,
Ruth

Hello Ruth
There is the option to use parallel processing in FMJ2 which helps to improve performance. Also there is a flag to decide whether or not the documents should be locked.
However, generally FMJ2 should not be ran by several users at the same
time. Even if the documents lock is not selected, you are still using
S200 and therefore a general lock on the payment selection is
performed, despite of what's selected concerning to locks at document
level. This is for data protection.
So, at this stage we could suggest the following:
- Do not have several users running FMJ2 at the same time. Normally
mass transactions are intended to be ran by one user.
- Define parallel processing and schedule background executions,
in order to optimize user's times. I suggest to use job starting
conditions in order to have one job started after the previous one
is finished.
If your business process definitely cannot be changed, there would
be an option to deactivate the lock on S200 but I have to aware you
that it'll be a modification and therefore falls out of the SAP Support
Scope.   If you definitely decide to implement a modification, you may contact SAP Support.
Reason and Prerequisites for the existing lock:
The commitment carryforward sets the same program lock as the payment
selection (FMF0, RFMS200). This is necessary since a simultaneously
executing the payment selection and the commitment carryforward would
result in data inconsistencies. Since payment selection can also update
cross FM area payments, the lock is set for an entire client.
Therefore it is not possible to start the payment selection in parallel
modes.
I hope this information will help you
Kind regards

Payment budget not checked in MIGO against last years PO

We are using Former Budgeting. We have customised specific tolerance (OF23) to generate error message when budget exceeds 100% against payment budget. (not commitment budget).
Now we have a scenario: Purchase order was created in the last year. Good was received in the current year. There is no budget against the commitment item in the relevant fund center. I expect the system to throw error messsage and stop good receipt posting. However, system does not give any message and goods receipt is posted. I would like the system to stop processing of goods receipt.
Appreciate any help in this regard
Cheers

Hello Ajay
Thanks for your reply. I could not get back in time since I was on holiday.
We do not carry specifically execute carry forward of PO commitments step (PMJ2). System automatically carry forward the commitment. Question is not about the commitment budget. We have configured the system to give error message only when the payment budget is exceeded not at the time commitment. Because the budgeting is done based on payments (actual receipt of goods).
For example:
Fund center budget : 2013 1000
2014 100
PO created in 2013 for 800.
Good receipt in 2013 for 600.
In 2014 good receipt done for 200 (remaning value of PO). I expect the system to give error message for payment budget since 200 is more than the budgeted amount of 100. However, no messages are issued and GR is posted.
Appreciate if you can throw some light on tis.
Thanks.
Cheers

Item 010 Fund Center/Commit Payment Budget Exceeded (FM)

Hi Expertise,
Our user executing FMJ2 transaction to carry forward purchase requisition (PR) / Purchase Order (PO) from 2014 to 2015 (April to March) by that time getting the below error message, but budgets are available for 2015.
Item 010 Fund Center/Commit Payment Budget Exceeded
Another user also facing the similar issue while create new PR in the current FY-2015 with different commitment item & fund center, still getting the same error, but budgets are available for 2015.
Kindly share your views and ideas, its urgent.
Thanks,
Jammy

Hi Jammy,
Please check the following hints about this matter:
1) To be on the safe side, please run report RFFMRC04 in test mode, to see if there are differences between the line items and totals table.
If errors arise, please run it in update mode, whithout other budgeting/posting activities occurring at the same time (otherwise you may encounter differences). Then, please reconstruct the AVC totals (FMBV for Former budgeting, FMAVCREINIT for BCS).
2) Reassignment during fiscal year change also uses the Derivation strategy for reassignment (transaction FMYC). Please verify if you have defined in FMYC a different FM account assignment (funds center and commitmente item) than the one that you are expecting.
I am not sure if you have Former Budgeting or BCS, therefore consider also the following:
3) IF you are using Former Budgeting, I guess you are getting BP629. Please check report BPINDAN2_NEW and if the 'Assigned budget' is same as the 'Commitments/actuals' the values are ok and budget is missing. If the values are different, you must run report BPINDX03 (FMBV) first to correct it.
4) IF you are using BCS, I guess you are getting FMAVC* message. For this, use transaction FMAVCR01 to verify your budget consumption and make sure that the budget was updated for payment budget not commitment budget (as per the error message that you are receiving).
5) Please check how this UOM (unit of measure) is defined in transaction CUNI.
In this transaction, you can set the Value-based commitment indicator.
This indicator controls whether commitments for the chosen unit of measure are
recorded on a quantity basis or a value basis. If the indicator is not set, the
commitments are managed on a quantity basis. If you set the indicator they are
managed on a value basis.
For value-based updates, the reduction of purchase order commitments occurs
with the maximum of goods receipt and/or invoice value. For
quantity-based commitments, the reduction of purchase order commitments occurs
with the maximum of goods receipt and/or invoice quantity.
Example:
You create a purchase order with the quantity of 1000 at the price of 10.
You post a goods receipt related to this PO with the quantity of 500 at the
price of 9.
For value-based updates, an amount of 4,500 is updated.
For quantity-based updates, an amount of 5,000 is updated.
I hope this helps.
Regards, Vanessa.

Payment Budget Exceeded

Hi all,
We encountered "payment budget for year 2007 exceeded" problem when posting to a particular funds centre and commitment item.
The standard SAP FM report shows that there are sufficient available budget for that funds centre and commitment item. We have also checked and verified that the necessary funds centre, commitment item have been duly created and assigned to the corresponding cost centre and G/L account.
Would greatly appreciate if you experts can help us with the problem. Many thanks.
Regards,

Hi Milind,
Thank you for your advice.
We do not perform budgeting in Funds Management module. Instead, we input our budget through CO and approved funds are copied from CO to FM via trx code FM9C (Plan Data Transfer from CO). Hence, we do not have to release the budget via FM. The same is performed for supplements and returns.
Our funds management has been activated and availability checking for all the funds centre and commitment item is alright except for this particular funds management and commitment item. The error message number is BP 629 and the diagnosis reads: "In document item 000 4320 / 412004 /, payment budget <=== C 4320 / 412 / for fiscal year 2007 was exceeded by 100.00 SGD" where 4320 is the funds centre, 412004 is the commitment item and $100 is the amount for the journal posting. Note that available budget is definitely more than $100.
Best Regards,
