Using Schedule Manager (FMDM) to manage budget carry forward for commitment

Greetings,
Using ECC 5.0, we have a business requirement to carry forward (FMJ2) some open commitments with budget and some open commitments without budget to the new fiscal year. We have attempted to use Schedule Manager (FMDM) to change the settings on open commitments (purchase requisitions and purchase orders). While the Schedule Manager reflects the change in the budget carry forward status, the application of the FMJ2 does not work as expected. Alternatively, we have changed the configuration settings and then transported changes to production environment.
I would appreciate guidance on how to troubleshoot operation of Schedule Manager so budget carrry forward status can be managed with this tool.
Regards,
Rod Anderson

Thanks, Ming.
My security team has confirmed that the FMDM is currently set up as a display only transaction. I now know where to take the issue from here.

Budget carry forward

Dear Experts,
I have doubt regarding the budget carry forward.
I'm using PS with Investment Management.
Now I need to carry forward the budget from 2008-09 to 2009-10 fiscal year.
I have the following transactions:
IM:
IM27 - Open New Approval Year
IM27_CLOSE - Closing Old Approval Year
IMCAOV - Budget Carry forward
PS:
CJCO - Budget Carry forward
CJCF - Commitment Carry forward
Can any one please tell me what is the hierarchy for the above transactions?
Do I need to carry CJCO, CJCF and then IM27, IM_CLOSE & IMCAOV? or first I need to carry out for IM and then do for PS?
What is the flow? Please advise me on the above.
Thanks in Advice,
Regards,
Praveen.

hi
Do the following steps:
PS:
CJCO - Budget Carry forward
CJCF - Commitment Carry forward
IM:
IM27 - Open New Approval Year
IM27_CLOSE - Closing Old Approval Year
IMCAOV - Budget Carry forward

Budget carry forward in IM & PS

Dear experts,
Need some help in Budget carry forward of IM & PS.
My scenarios is I have a Investment program in the year 2008 and under that program i have 1 project, which is having a duration of 3 yrs.
After completion of 1st yr i.e., 2008, i need to carry forward the remaining budget to the next year i.e., 2009.
But here I am getting a problem.
Please go through the below steps i followed:
1st in Investment Management:
1. Tcode IM 27: here I am carrying out this transaction with the existing Investment program and approval year, system automatically prompting the next approval year in Target investment program.
In settings I selected 1st 3 options.
       Copy program structure
       Carry forward meas / app req
       Carry forward budget values
If select the 4th option i.e., carry forward planned values system is asking for version, which i have not maintained for the Investment program.
then executed the transaction
system giving messages investment program copied to xxxx/2009
budget values were carried forward from xxxx/2008 to xxxx/2009
measures / approp req. were copied from xxxx/2008 to xxxx/2009.
2. In T Code IM27_close.
    Investment program: xxxx
    Approval year: 2008
in settings selected the following:
Carry forward meas / appr. req
Carry forward budget values
in selection of measures / approp reqs for transfer to current approval year selected:
All meas / appr req.
then executed the transaction
systems gives the output
Budget values were carried forward from xxxx/2008 to xxxx/2009
Measures/approp. requests were copied from xxxx/2008 to xxxx/2009
3. in T code IMCAOV
   Investment program xxxx
   Approval year 2009
   sender fiscal year 2008
ticked
Test run
Budget as supplement / return
executed
output is
The program was executed in test mode
Data can be updated
Again run the same transaction without Test Run
the output is
The program was executed in update mode
Data was updated successfully.
Now I run the T code IM32 to check the budget with new approval year
Investment program xxxx
approval year 2009
here system took the distributed values of the last year investment program, i.e.., xxxx/2008.
My doubt is the budget for the new year 2009 should be the Distributable value of old year 2008, why system is picking up the distributed value of old year 2008 to new year 2009?
Please clarify me the above..
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,

Dear Ecperts,
Can anyone please help me out in this regard?? Its bit urgent? Am I following the right process?
Please help me out.
Thanks and Regads,
Raju.

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.

Order or WBS budget carry forward!

Hi all,
Normally if we budget the order or WBS by year, we will need to run budget carry forward at the year end closing. But if we just use the overall budget and not use the budget by year at all, do we still need to run the budget carry forward at the year end closing?
And also will there be any problem if we budget the order or WBS only by overall and we use the IM to allocate the budget later?
Thanks,
Ting

Hi,
If you use overall budget, no carry-over procedure is required.

Eli

Budget Carry forward report

Hi,
i am working for one of the client where they have carried forward the budget for some of the internal orders and for the rest of the internal orders budget is yet to be carried forward.
is there any report whereby i can find out for which internal orders budget has been carried forward to the next year & for which internal order budget carry forward is still pending
Regards
Jyotsna

Hi Jyotsna
I dont there is any such report... Ideal way would be to run KOCO... Create a Variant and execute for all the Orders(A to ZZZZZ or 1 to 99999999)... Those orders where Budget is already carried forward, will automatically get exlcluded

Budget carry forward- giong up in the fund center hierarchy

Hi,
We are about to close year 2008 in the FM. We work with the former budget, and we don't have budget structure.
When carry forward the commitment u2013 the receiver is the same as the sender.
But, when I carry forward budget for commitment, the receiver is the upper fund center in the hierarchy.
The budget is not where the commitments are.
What can I do?
best regards,
Edit.

Hi,
The budget of year 2008 was entered at the subordinate FC.
If there is budget in year 2009 at the subordinate FC, the budget carry forward is right (the sender and the receiver are the same).
Only if there is no budget on the subordinate FC, the budget runs upwards the hierarchy.
Thanks,
Edit.

You should only need a SIM in it to actually activate it in iTunes. Once activated, leave the SIM in or remove it, it should not matter.
Then, turn on airplane mode. And then, go into wifi settings and re-enable wifi (this leaves the cellular radio in airplane mode = powered off).
Now your iPhone is effectively no more than a (wifi only) iPod Touch.

Project budget carry forward reversal

Hi Team,
We have issue with budget carry foward i.e user does the budget carry forward from 2014 to 2015 however now they want to do some transaction in FY 2014 he could not do it because there is no budget.
How we can reverse the budget carry forward?
Regards,
Raman

Hi Raman,
Usually the carry forward is done for many WBS-elements, so reversing everything might not be the best option.
It might be easier to supplement the exact amount for 2014 for the 2014 posting and return the same amount in 2015.

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.

Balance carried forward for New GL

Hi Expert,
I would like understand about the balance carried forward for AP and AR in the New GL.
When executing the program in test run mode, user will download the balances and try to tie to the recon accts in trial balance. The openning balance generated by the program should tie to the last fiscal year closing balance. But apparently, it is not. There is a difference. And after checking, the difference seem to the opening balance that aready exist in the new FY.
So, when executing the carried forward program, is the system transferring only the difference ? New posting or items not yet carried forward ?
Thanks.
Angel.

Hi,
FAGLGVTR - Balance Carryforward (New) for GL carry forward
F.07 - Balance Carryforward for AR/AP carry forward
When you execute these programs system will carryforward all closing balance to subsequent year opening balance. Any postings happened in previous year will dynamically carried forward to subsequent year after executing this program. If you find any mismatch, you can again execute this program. It will not create any impact.
Hope this clarifies your doubt.
Best Regards,
Madhu

Best practices when carry forward for audit adjustments

Dear experts,
I would like to know if someone can share his best practices when performing carry forward for audit adjustments.
We are actually doing legal consolidation for one customer and we are facing one issue.
The accounting team needs to pass audit adjustments around April-May for last year.
So from January to April / May, the opening balance must be based on December closing of prior year.
Then from May / June to December, the opening balance must be based on Audit closing of prior year.
We originally planned to create two members for December period, XXXX.DEC and XXXX.AUD
Once the accountants would know their audit closing balance, they would have to input it on the XXXX.AUD period and a business rule could compute the difference between the closing of AUD and DEC periods and store the result on an opening flow.
The opening flow hierarchy would be as follow:
F_OPETOT (Opening balance Total)
F_OPE (Opening balance from December)
F_OPEAUD (Opening balance from the difference between closing balance of Audit and December periods)
Now, assume that we are in October, but for any reason, the accountant run a carry forward for February, he is going to impact the opening balance because at this time (October), we have the audit adjustments.
How to avoid such a thing? What are the best practices in this case?
I guess it is something that you may have encounter if you did a consolidation project.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Cookman and I have been arguing about this since the paleozoic era. Here's my logic for capturing everything.
Less wear and tear on the tape and the deck.
You've got everything on the system. Can't tell you how many times a client has said "I know that there was a better take." The only way to disabuse them of this notion is to look at every take. if it's not on the system, you've got to spend more time finding the tape, and adding "wear and tear on the tape and the deck." And then there's the moment where you need to replace the audio for one word from another take. You can quickly check all the other takes (particularly if you've done a thorough job logging the material - see below)_.
Once it's on the system, you still need to log and learn the material. You can scan thru material much faster once it's captured. Jumping around the material is much easier.
There's no question that logging the material before you capture makes you learn the material in a more thorough way, but with enough selfdiscipline, you can learn the material as thoroughly once it's been captured.

Balance carry forward for individual GL

Dear Expert,
Some adjustment has been done for Balance sheet item in the previous fiscal year(2011,2012,2013). Now opening balance not matching, Can we execute individual GL wise Balance carry forward ?
Best Regards,
Russel.

Hi ,
You can't run for One GL but I believe You can either for Balance sheet or P& Laccounts .
Otherwise there is no harm in running GL balance carry forward for all GLs .
SAP says you can carry forward balances as many time
Many Thanks

Investment management - budget carry forward

HI Experts,
When ever I am running transaction code CJCO in update run, I get a message saying " Update run possible only in closed fiscal year". If I tick the green check, it runs for a while. I am not sure if it actually carrying forward the budget or not.
I have gone through the program description which says " You can use this program to carry unused budget from a closed fiscal year forward to the next year"
I have closed year 2008 using IM27_close. I am not sure if this is the correct or not. Projects were created in fiscal year 2008. Fiscal year 2008 for in this case is from June 07 to May08.
Can you please guide me as to what are the steps to be performed for year end closing of IM and at the same time is it ok to ignore the message and continue to process it.
Please help me in this regard.
Thanks in advance.
regards
Pawan

this depends mainly on your cut over strategy -
are you converting existing projects?
Is the historical postings also being converted - most likely not
if not then what happens to costing of projects - ie are you converting partial complete projects, if so without historical data how you will analyse the project costs etc for whole projects
what if you have projects over say 5 yrs - do you want to roll over budgets from say 2003?
my advise would be to allow all the financial trial balance conversion take care of the project P&L
you should only convert active projects with structures to be used form 1/1/09
create z tables for any data required for historical puposes for the drill down from standard reports or use statistical postings to build the historical data only for the converted projects

Funds Management-Budget Carry Forward

Hi,
I was doing testing for open item commitment carry forward along with Budget (FMJ2). In the selection screen, there is a drop down for Availability Control, When I Select Check and execute..
1) I get errror message.. Budget "Annual Budget Exceeded by ......" . This message shld not appear as budget from CY is to be transffered to New Year.
2) Then I executed FMJ2 again but this time I in Availability Control.. I selected Update without check.. this time there was no error and I could post it. But here the problem is when i see the report for Year 2009 (new year)FMRP_RW_BUDCON - Budget Control System (BCS) -> Budget -> Overview of Budget Consumption , Consumable bugdet is 0, Current bugdet has value carried forward, available budget is in negative.
I have release strategy for budget, but not for budget type carried forward.
What could be the problem...How shld I solve this???
Thanks & Regards,
Jyoti

Hi ELi,
I have checked the table BUVALTPRO, automatic release is checked for carry forward process.
Why I m not using release for this:
1) IN FMJ2, I would like to choose Availaibility control as check, if I do this i'll get error message as release is done after I do carry forward.
2) Budget is already released for open items in old year, so it would not make sense to release it again.
3) Now, I have activated consistency check for Negative budget, so when I execute FMJ2, it does not allow me post even if I choose update wihout check and I get the message : "The current budget for budget type CFWD is negative"
Does it has anything to do with
IMG/PSM/FM Govt/Closing Operations/Closing operation for BCS/Set Up Automatic Budget Postings After Fiscal Year Change -
what's d use of this?
Thanks & Regards,
Jyoti
