Financial budgeting information often must be compared with and controlled with actuals and stored in the general ledger system. You define data load rules to write back to determine how to extract the budget or actual data. The data load rule for write backs can be used to load to an EPM application, and also to write back to an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) application from an EPM application. FDMEE also supports E-Business Suite and PeopleSoft for data load to write back.
For E-Business Suite, multiple ledgers can be used for the data load to write back with the following criteria:
Ledgers must share same chart of accounts.
“Actuals” can be posted to multiple ledgers.
“Budget” is associated with one ledger. One ledger can be posted from only one data load rule.
For Peoplesoft, “Actuals” can be posted without specifying the Budget Scenario. In addition, the write backs can be made to multiple business units.
