You are distributing budget from Investment prog. to project.

In IM there is not concept of Budget release. If you want to control your budget at Release ( which is called Active budget control ) you have to does the same in PS.

Your flow would be like that

IM32 :Change origional Prog. budget

IM52 : Budget distribution from Prog to measue i.e. Project/ WBS.

CJ32: Change release Budget. ( so, sys will check budget against this release budget )

For using Release budget funcation you have to activate avalability control in your Budget profile (OPS9 txn ) for the Release & assign that budget profile to budget profile.

Hi,

You can combine these 2 steps:

1. budget distribution, IM52

2. release budget in PS, CJ32. you need to activate release in your budget profile in PS.
