Budget Checking Procurement Cards

You can now perform budget check and ChartField edit validations for your procurement card transactions during the Statement Load process and online processing. Use the budget processor to invoke budget check and ChartField edits after staged data is loaded into the Statement Load process and when users use the Reconcile Statement component.

You can use the budget check or the ChartField Edit validation process during:

  • The Statement Load process.

    If you enable commitment control for procurement cards, the system validates the budget rows. If rows are not budget checked, the budget status is N (not checked). If a row fails the budget check, the budget status is E (error). If rows pass the budget check, the budget status is V (valid).

    If you selected edit combination options on the Purchasing Options page, the system performs ChartField edit combinations based on the ChartField Editing template. The system indicates a status of V (valid for passing rows) or R (recycle for rows that fail).

  • Online processing.

    If you enable commitment control for procurement cards, the system performs ChartField edits and budget-check validations after users modify the distribution information and click the Save button on the Reconcile Statement page.

    The system also validates for ChartField combinations on the Distribution Templates page. Once a user modifies and saves information on this page, the system automatically uses the budget processor to check for valid ChartFields.

Note: To budget check procurement cards, first select the procurement card option on the Installation Options page.

Users can access the Budget Check Exceptions page to fix all rows that did not pass budget check. All failed rows must be fixed before they can successfully pass budget check.
