AC20


AC20.1 - Life Only Budget



Use Life Only Budget (AC20.1) to define and maintain a life only budget.
The life only budget designates the total budgeted amount for the duration
of the activity group, including the budget for all individual activities
included in the activity group. You can define a budget for amounts and units
and calculate values using a factor or rate. Activity group budgets are stored
in base currency and optionally Report 1 and Report 2 currencies. Activity
budges are stored in base currency, Report 1 and Report 2 currencies, and
also in the budget currency. Budget amounts are stored in the activity group
base currency. You can define the budget by either activity group, which
includes
all activities in the group; or by activity group, specific activity, and
account category.
You can define as many budgets as necessary, but can only have one active
budget.
You can define budget edits, make changes to this budget, or lock this
budget to prevent it from being changed. List budget information defined using
the AC20 budget forms using Budget Listing (AC220). Report on the variance
between activity budgets and actuals or between two budgets using Budget
Variance
Report (AC420).
Use AC21 (Budget Change Orders) to change a budget and provide an audit
trail of your changes.


NOTE  You do not have to enter an amount, factor, rate, and units. If
you define only two values, the system calculates the third. For example,
Amount = Rate multiplied by (*) Units.

AC20.2 - Annual Budget



Use Annual Budget (AC20.2) to define and maintain budgets annually.
You can define annual budgets for an entire activity group, including all
activities; or for an activity group, specific activity, and account category.
You must define at least one amount, factor, rate, or unit for each year.
Period amounts are calculated automatically based on the annual amount
entered.
You can define as many budgets as necessary, but can only have one active
budget.
You can define budget edits, make changes to this budget, or lock this
budget to prevent it from being changed. List budget information defined using
the AC20 budget forms using Budget Listing (AC220). Report on the variance
between activity budgets and actuals or between two budgets using Budget
Variance
Report (AC420)
Use AC21 (Budget Change Orders) to change a budget and provide an audit
trail of your changes.


NOTE  You do not have to enter an amount, factor, rate, and units. If
you define only two values, the system calculates the third. For example,
Amount = Rate multiplied by (*) Units.


NOTE  The budget must be within the activity group or activity date
range. For example, if the group is only for 2002, you can't define a budget
for 2003.



**Processing Effect

If the Budget line has two values, the program calculates the third
using the formula:
Amount = Rate * Units.
If the budget has all three values, the program recalculates the amount
as Rate * Units and rounds the amount and units.
In the Budget field, you can select Attachments and define URL links
or comments.

AC20.3 - Period Budget



Use Period Budget (AC20.3) to define a period budget. Period budgets
designate the budgeted amounts and units for each period in the calendar.
You can define a period budget by activity or activity group. Annual budget
amounts are automatically calculated based on the period amount entered.
You can define budget edits, make changes to this budget, or lock this
budget to prevent it from being changed. List budget information defined using
the AC20 budget forms using Budget Listing (AC220). Report on the variance
between activity budgets and actuals or between two budgets using Budget
Variance
Report (AC420)



**Processing Effect

If the Budget line has two values, the program calculates the third
using the formula:
Amount = Rate * Units.
If the budget has all three values, the program recalculates the amount
as Rate * Units and rounds the amount and units.
In the Budget field, you can select Attachments and define URL links
or comments.



**More Information

Use the Multi Year Spread action to spread the budget amount evenly
through all periods and years of a budget. To create a Multi Year Spread
budget,
enter the detail information in the detail line, and leave the Year and Period
blank. When using this action, the Compute, Parameter, and Spread Code fields
must also be blank.
Use AC21 (Budget Change Orders) to change a budget and provide an audit
trail of your changes.

AC20.4 - Activity Budgets by Activity


Use Activity Budgets By Activity (AC20.4) to define and maintain activity
budgets by activity. For each account category of the activity, you can add,

a budget with amount values only, unit values only, or amount, rate, and
units.

AC20.6 - Activity Group Budget Header



Use Activity Group Budget Header (AC20.6) to define an activity group
budget header. You can define as many budgets as necessary, but each activity
group can only have one active budget. For example, if costs change you can
define a new active budget by copying the old one and keeping the old budget
for reference while making the new budget active.
The header defines the budget number and description, budget date range,
currency and exchange rate information, amount and unit round types, whether
it is a life only budget, and whether it is the active budget. You must add
the budget header before you can add budget amounts and units.
The active activity group budget displays on the Budget form tab in
AC00.1 (Activity Group).

AC20.7 - Activity Budget Header


Use Activity Budget Header (AC20.7) to define an activity budget header.
You can define as many budgets as necessary, but each activity can only have
one active budget. For example, if the cost of materials increases, you can
define a new active budget by copying the old budget and keeping it for
reference
while making changes to the new active budget.
The header defines the budget number and description, budget date range,
currency and exchange rate information, amount and unit round types, whether
it is a life only budget, and whether it is the active budget. You must add
the budget header before you can add budget amounts and units.
The active budget displays on AC10.1 (Activity).
