Budget Structure: Create Posting Addresses

Former Member
0 Kudos

Hi

I have a unique scenario where in for one FM area "ABC", Fund is activated and made mandatory for BCS(IMG:Activate Account Assignment Elements in Budget Control System).

For another FM area "XYZ", the fund is made "not used" in IMG "Activate Account Assignment Elements in Budget Control System".

Now while creating Budgeting Addresses for FM area = XYZ, system does not show "Fund" in selection criteria, as desired.

But while creating Posting Addresses for FM area = XYZ, system shows "Fund" in selection criteria.

Now if i try to create Posting addresses by giving only Fund Center and Commitment Item, it throws an error "Enter Fund".

By deactivating "Fund" from global setting(IMG:Activate Account Assignment Elements), system does not show "Fund" in selection criteria but this is not desired as other FM area uses "Fund" attribute.

Please help.

Thanks Alex,

Actually if i deactivate the Fund by using IMG-Public Sector Management-General Settings for Public Sector Management-Basic Settings: Account Assignment Elements-Activate Account Assignment Elements,

then "Fund" will get deactivated for all the FM areas used in the system.

I want to deactivate "Fund" FM area specific.

Please let me know if there is any way this can be done.

Hi, you want to 'deactivate' just for posting? If so, then activate it IMG-Public Sector Management-General Settings for Public Sector Management-Basic Settings: Account Assignment Elements-Activate Account Assignment Elements

And allow fund='blank' for required FM area(in which you don't want to use it) here:

IMG-Public Sector Management-General Settings for Public Sector Management-Basic Settings: Account Assignment Elements-Allow BLANK as Value for Account Assignment Elements

Thanks Alex

Actually i got that thought once, but then thought that if there is some other way where specifically we can deactivate fund, just the way its getting done for Budgeting Addresses.

Also the second thought was about one to one internal assignment of Budgeting addresses and Posting Addresses, then system would take "Fund = Blank" and make the assignment.

I assume there will not be any other way to deactivate fund for posting addresses for one FM area and keep it activated for posting addresses for another FM area.

Hi.

"if there is some other way where specifically we can deactivate fund, just the way its getting done for Budgeting Addresses"-no

"I assume there will not be any other way to deactivate fund for posting addresses for one FM area and keep it activated for posting addresses for another FM area."

Just activate Fund, make it allowed as blank for posting and optional for budgeting in 1 FM area.

Not allowed as blank for posting and required for budgeting in another FM area.
