How can I enable budgetary control for project-specific procurement for an inventory or work order destination?

To enable budgetary control for project-specific procurement for an inventory or work order destination:

  1. Navigate to the Manage Budgetary Control task in Functional Setup Manager. The Manage Budgetary Control and Encumbrance Accounting page appears.
  2. Scroll down to the Ledger and Business Unit Options section. This section lists out all the ledgers created in Projects and displays their properties. For example, the Budgetary Control Enabled column indicates whether budgetary control has been enabled for a ledger.
  3. Search for your Ledger or Business Unit using the search options provided above each column.
  4. Select the record that must be updated and click the Edit icon. The Edit Budgetary Control and Encumbrance Accounting page appears.
  5. Enable budgetary control for the ledger, business units assigned to the ledger, and the project accounting business function. The page refreshes to display additional controls.
  6. Click the Transaction Type Details icon adjacent to the Requisitioning business function. Enable budgetary control and encumbrance accounting for the following Requisitioning transaction subtypes:
    • Project direct purchase work order for direct procurements made to a work order destination from a project-referenced manufacturing or maintenance work order.
    • Project purchase requisition to inventory for project-referenced requisition with an inventory destination.
    • Requisition back to back for back-to-back orders.
  7. Click OK.
  8. Enable budgetary control and encumbrance accounting for these Procurement transaction subtypes:
    • Project purchase order to inventory for project-referenced purchase orders with an inventory destination.
    • Project work order purchase order for direct procurements made to a work order destination from a project-referenced manufacturing or maintenance work order.
    • Project order back to back for back-to-back orders
  9. Click OK.
  10. Click Save and Close in the Edit Budgetary Control and Encumbrance page, and Save and Close in the Manage Budgetary Control and Encumbrance page.

This feature also makes available two new journal line rules for encumbrance accounting in Project Costing: Same Line Project Encumbered Burden Cost Liquidation for PO for same line burdening enabled projects, and Separate Line Project Encumbered Burden Cost Liquidation for PO for separate line burdening enabled projects. They are already available in the Inventory Cost and Burden Cost seeded journal entry rule sets. However, if your ledger is assigned with a user-defined subledger accounting method, add these new journal line rules to your rule sets and recompile your subledger accounting method for encumbrances to be accounted successfully for project-specific procurements to an inventory or work order destination. For guidance on working with journal line rulesets and rules, see Manage Journal Entry Rule Sets and Manage Journal Line Rules sections in the Implementing Subledger Accounting guide.
