Viewing Billing Invoice Budget Checking Exceptions

When accounting entries fail budget checking, the Budget Checking process populates the budget check header and line status with E (error in budget check). If any one line on a transaction fails budget checking, the system marks the entire invoice in error by updating the budget check header status field. No budget updates occur for the transaction.

If accounting entries fail budget checking, you can:

  • View budget checking errors or warning messages for invoices.

  • View individual invoice lines with budget checking errors or warning messages.

  • View line details for source transactions with budget exceptions.
