Enabling and Disabling Budgetary Control
If you enable budgetary control for a set of books after you have entered transactions, you might have already overspent some budgets. The system cannot encumber approved transactions, so funds available might be overstated. We recommend that you create manual encumbrances for approved transactions so that funds available are correct.
Note: If you disable budgetary control for a set of books, existing encumbrances are not cleared from the feeder systems. Therefore, we do not recommend that you turn off either budgetary control or encumbrance accounting once you have it enabled.
Attention: If you change the budgetary control option for an existing set of books, you must do two things for the change to be reflected:
- Run the Period Map maintenance concurrent request. This request must run successfully.
- Exit Oracle Applications and restart. You must completely exit the application--it is not sufficient to select Sign On Again from the Oracle Applications Special menu.
