Hello Experts,
We dont have Investment Management implemented here.I checked asset master but WBS field is not there, I changed the asset layout by making 'investment project' as required field .Even though WBS element field is not visible in asset master.
Please suggest how can I check budget available against project in this case..
Thanks & Regards
Saurabh
ORIGINAL QUESTION:
I want to know that with Account assignment category A and account assignment to both WBS and asset, will the system give error of budget overshoot against WBS? or it will make only a statistical posting against WBS.
Actually,I want the budget check pop-us in such a case and that I am not getting now. Please suggest me if you have a better idea?
Regards
FIRST REPLY:
There can be only one Real CO object per posting, so the WBS postings will be statistical. But...statisitcal postings to WBS elements do consume budget. So, yes, you will get an error or warning if the budget is exceeded.

For direct procurement of an asset (PO with Account Assignment A):
1. Create a Statistical WBS and assign Budget.
2. Create an Asset Master (not required, you can have the PO create one)
3. Use Account Assisgnment Category A against the asset master on the PO to purchase the asset.
4. On the same PO account assignment tab enter a statsitical WBS element. This creates a budget commitment against the WBS. You will probably have to modify the account assignment category configuration to show the WBS field.
The WBS does not need to be on the Asset Master, it is typical to assign the asset master to a cost center. This is the receiver of the depreciation posting.

Ken,
I tried it many times in the same same way as you have mentioned but I am not getting any message of budget check. Also, one thing is interesting to see is,system is not updating commitment against projects for asset procurement. I checked in OKKP, commitment management is activated for projects.
Also, used G/L/cost element is not maintained as exempt from AVAC.
Also,the created PR I can see in ME5J but not in CJI5 ot S_ALR_87013558.
I have attached few screen shots also.
Hi Clara,
Thanks for guiding in entrusted way..
Yes,Fund commitment is activated. Regarding cost carriers(CE/G/L),yes ,here seems a catch.
Actually, I analyzed the master data of G/L ,one for which cost is flowing into projects is a P & L account and have a CE of category 1. The another one is a balance sheet account and for that no CE is in place ( normally,we dont create CE for balance sheet accounts,correct me if I'm wrong) and for this G/L cost is not flowing into projects..
Regards
