Summary

The Extended Budgeting Commit step completes the extended budgeting process. Committing the extended budgeting batch will send the budget information to one of two places in the application.

• If you are budgeting for the current year, the commit step sends the budget information to the budget adjustment process. You would then need to commit the budget adjustment batch in order for the changes to take effect.
• If you are budgeting for the next fiscal year, the commit step sends the budget information to the Edit New Budgets process. The budget must then be committed as Adopted and the year must be rolled forward to the first day of the next year in order for the changes to take effect.

Step by Step

1     Open the extended budgeting Commit window (EB> Extended Budgeting> Commit).

2     Complete the Commit Options section.

• Enter a revision number in the Revision field or click the field label to open the Revision Selection window.
• Select a budget category from the Commit To drop-down menu.
  • When you export a prior or future year's budget from the Extended Budget module, you may select to export it to the Adopted, Approved, Proposed, Requested or Estimated Actuals Column of the budget process.
  • When you export the current year's budget from the Extended Budget module, you may select to export it to the Current Year Budget or Estimated Actuals Column of the budget process.
  • The Adjustment Batch field will only be active when exporting the current year's budget. Enter an adjustment batch number and a new batch will be created in the Budget Adjustments process (GL> Budget Adjustments).
    • If the GL Budget Adjustments process includes an open batch, that batch must be committed or deleted before a new one can be created.
• Click the Confirm icon to commit the batch.
• If you are budgeting for the current fiscal year, committing a budget revision sends it to the Budget Adjustments process in the General Ledger Module.
• If you are budgeting for the next fiscal year, committing a budget revision sends it to Edit New Year Budgets on the New Budget Info pallet in the General Ledger module.
• Click the Confirm icon to commit the batch immediately or enter a date and time in the field next to the Confirm icon to schedule the job to process at a later time.
  • You can view the progress of the job process on the Job Viewer window in SS> Utilities> Show Scheduled Jobs.
