  6. SAP Budget - Related Key Terminology Budget Planning & Simulation (BPS): SAP solution for Strategic Enterprise Management. BW/BPS is the abbreviation for Business Warehouse/Business Planning & Simulation. BW is a reporting tool that retrieves and integrates summarized and detail data from SAP Position Budget Control (PBC): An SAP module for integrated personnel cost/budget planning Personnel Cost Planning (PCP): An SAP module used for planning positions, salaries and benefits. PCP calculates planned cost based on Employee Master Data. Cost information is transferred to the BPS folders Funds Management (FM): Where budgeted revenues and expenditures for individual areas of responsibility are managed. In FM, future funds movements are managed and controlled according to a distributed budget. FM prevents the exceeding of a budget Examples of funds set up as master data in FM: 010 General Fund, 110 Adult Education, 120 Child Development Delimiting:Delimiting is attaching an end date to a record.

  17. What Has Changed? (cont.)

  18. Key Changes (Budget Maintenance) • Budget users will have to understand the account string structure for the funds they are dealing with • Budget users will access integrated data for budget and employee positions when making personnel budget decisions • Reports: Individuals who are identified as budget planners or budget maintainers will have access to standard BW reports

  19. Key Changes (Position Budget Control) • With SAP, several funding attributes can be attached to one position, therefore no need for multiple positions because of multiple funding sources • HR and Budget attributes will be populated automatically when a new position is created • When a position is closed, budget will defund the position, HR will delimit the position • Positions will be committed using actual employees‘ step and salary schedule • Immediate display of employee’s costs, and impact to Commitment Items and Budgets

  20. A Glance at SAP: Budget Planning Folders • Budget layouts are divided into five folders: • Budget Planning & Maintenance • Revenue Planning Maintenance • Growth Planning • Reduction Planning & Maintenance • Augmentation Planning A folder contains budget layouts that are used to input and store the budget information that interacts with other information in the SAP system such as HR and Payroll

  21. Budget Maintenance Folder(Variables/Header-Section 1) Header/Variable information for the budget transfer (section 1)

  22. Budget Maintenance Folder Layout (Section 2) ed version • The Budget Transfer Form resides in an MS Excel layout and will accept all standard Excel functions • The header/variable information in section 1 populates in the first six rows of the Excel form (section 2)

  23. Budget Maintenance Folder Layout (Section 3) • In this example, we: • Perform a position to position transfer • Close a manager/director position • Create two new computer specialist/information developer positions

  24. Budget Maintenance Folder Layout (Section 3) Note the Positive and Negative values in the From/To Amount field required to close one position and use the funds to open two new positions 10
