BCS_V_FMAVCLDGRMAINT - Maintain Customer-Specific Ledger for Availability Check

ABAP Short Reference   ABAP Short Reference  
This documentation is copyright by SAP AG.

This IMG activity is optional. As far as possible, you should use the AVC ledgers 9H and 9I delivered by SAP for AVC checks, and only create new AVC ledgers if they are required for additional checks.

In this IMG activity, you maintain the list of availability control ledgers (AVC ledgers). You can define new (customer-defined) availability control ledgers, modify some of their attributes, or delete ledgers, providing some conditions are fulfilled.

When creating a new AVC ledger, you can have most of its attributes copied from a reference ledger taken as template. The following settings and assignments are copied from the reference ledger:

• Filter settings for budget values

• Assignment of tolerance profiles and derivation strategy for control objects

• Assignment of checking horizon for availability control

The new ledger and the settings are automatically copied to the IMG activities Define Filter Settings for Budget Values, Assign Tolerance Profiles and Derivation Strategy for Control Objects and Select Checking Horizon for Availability Control.

You can change the settings of the new ledger in these IMG activities. You can also modify the following ledger settings:

• For the predefined ledgers 9H and 9I, you can only modify the name (short text) of the ledger.

• For customer-defined ledgers you can also modify the AVC data sources assigned to the ledger. By default, availability control for BCS is set in such a way that it checks the budget for actuals/commitments that have already been posted (Data Source for Consumed Amount) against the budget entered in Funds Management (FM) for assigned funds (Data Source for Consumable Budget).

In this IMG activity, you can define a different user-specific AVC ledger by checking one set of budget values against another set of budget values. For this, select two budget data sources(one as Data Source for Consumed Amount and one as the Data Source for Consumable Budget), instead of a single budget data source together with an actuals data source.

This means that you select another budget category as the Data Source for Consumed Amount, instead of a posting ledger. The Data Source for Consumable Budget of each ledger can also be modified, but the choice is restricted to budget data sources.

For further information, see the documentation of the IMG activity Define Filter Settings for Budget Values.

When deleting a ledger, some checks are performed before deletion to prevent any inconsistency:

• the deletion of the predefined ledgers 9H and 9I is forbidden.

• the ledger to be deleted should be empty, that is, no data should be recorded in table FMAVCT for this record.

• the ledger should not be active (see IMG activity Define Activation of Availability Control)

Note
The copying of AVC ledgers is only supported within an FM area. The keys of your new ledger are entered with the copy process and cannot be changed.

By default, the activation status of a newly created AVC ledger is set at "not active" .

SAP delivers the following AVC ledgers for Funds Management budget categories:

AVC ledger	Budget category
9H	payment budget
9I	commitment budget

Use these AVC ledgers to carry out the standard checks of the budget in the corresponding budget category.

9I

If you want to use a new customer-defined AVC ledger for your FM area, carry out the activities in the following order:

1. Create a new AVC ledger in this IMG activity.
2. Activate the new AVC ledger by setting the appropriate activation status in the IMG activity Define Activation of Availability Control.
3. Reconstruct availability control in the new AVC ledger using transaction Re-Initialize AVC Ledgers.

9I
