Understanding Budget Pattern Code Changes

To change an existing budget pattern code assigned to a group of accounts within a business unit or company, use the Budget Pattern Code Change program (P1441) and observe these guidelines:  

• Change the code before you enter the annual budget amounts.

• Plan to spread your annual budget amounts among the periods.

The new code that you assign overrides the previous (old) code that was assigned. The system updates assigned codes in the Account Master table (F0901).
