Fund Accounting: FM to Budgetary Ledger Transfer Enhancements (New)

Use

As of SAP ECC 6.0, Public Services (EA_PS 600), the function for making Funds Management (FM) transfers to update the General Ledger in FI (FI-GL) has been enhanced.

In prior releases, the program RFFMTOBL program was used behind transaction FMTB to transfer FM commitment item or total information to FI-GL. This process was designed for our US Fund Accounting customers. With this enhancements we have provided a complete functionality allowing the transfer of budget, commitment and actual totals into subaccounts of FI-GL. We refer to these subaccounts in the FI-GL as Budgetary Ledger accounts.

US Fund Accounting customers can now decide whether to continue with the former transfer program RFFMTOBL or use the new RFFMTTTOBL. We recommend that you switch over to the new transfer program RFFMTTTOBL as well as use the special IMG in the US Fund Accounting node to configure this transfer. Fund Accounting requires to only configure the transfer for FM commitments into FI-GL, therefore we have provided a specific Fund Accounting IMG for this configuration.

The program RFFMTTTOBL is designed as a batch process with the job scheduling being on a monthly basis. It can only be used to transfer FM total information and can be regarded as a batch alternative to the online budgetary ledger.

As with the former transfer process, the design is fiscal year-based, allowing new transfer balances per period. We recommend that you schedule the transfer as part of your month end closing procedures.

Also note the following points:

• Either the former transfer program RFFMTOBL or the new RFFMTTTOBL program can be used. Use of the new transfer program requires new configuration.

• For the budget transfer, a new transaction, FMBTB, has been added.

• With this release, the business area is again available within the commitment/actual totals though it is still necessary to derive the business area for the budget totals.

Effects on Existing Data

The existing budgetary ledger postings will still be available. To prior years this would be required. In the current year the transfer postings would overlap, therefore it is recommended to switch from the former transfer program to the new program at the beginning of a new fiscal year. If this is not possible the transfer documents created from the former budget programs should be reversed and with the new transfer program up to the current period recreated.

Effects on Data Transfer

Effects on System Administration

Effects on Customizing

The BADI implementation BADI_FM_FM2AC contains the complete setting for the former transfer program (RFFMTOBL). The deactivation of all active implementations will confirm the switch that the new transfer program (RFFMTTTOBL) can be used. The configuration for the new transfer program is available in the

Budgetary Ledger node for totals transfer or for our Fund Accounting customers in the Fund Accounting Menu under Budgetary Ledger.
