Thanks for reply,

If commitment item catgory is 30/3 ( Material Varaince), it mean system will check the budget on it.

is there budget required for these commitment items? and also system will require to have fund center?

Could you please write more for clarfication.

Thanks

Hi,

That's up to you whether check budget or not; you can define tolerance profile for this commitment item which will skip the budget availability control. Moreover, you can define this CI to be statistical and no budget will be checked at all. Fund centre could be defaulted in the CI master data. There are several options to define this CI; there is no 'golden' rule to do so. 30/3 is just for consistency for P&L accounts...

Regards,

Eli
