2. SAP FUNDS MANAGEMENT ON-LINE TRAINING
course overview
The tasks of Funds Management are to budget all revenues
and expenditures for individual responsibility areas, monitor
future funds movements in light of the budget available, and
prevent budget overruns.
You can adapt the budget to changes in conditions by
entering releases, supplements, returns, and transfers
you create your financial management (FM) areas. The
financial management area is an organizational unit within
accounting which structures the business organization from
the perspective of Funds Management

Maintain FM Area
In this step, you create your financial management (FM) areas. The financial
management area is an organizational unit within accounting which structures the
business organization from the perspective of Cash Budget Management and
Funds Management.
You define the functional characteristics of FM areas separately for both Cash
Budget Management and Funds Management in the implementation guide for each
of these areas.
To be able to take advantage of the high degree of integration in the SAP system,
you must link the FM areas with organization units from other applications. For
example: if you assign a Financial Accounting document to a Funds Management
object (such as a commitment item or funds center), the system has to determine
an FM area, so that it can record the data in Funds Management. For this reason,
you must specify how the appropriate FM area is to be determined.

Funds Center Hierarchy
Funds centers are used to represent organizational units (areas of
responsibility, departments, projects) and are arranged in a hierarchy.
Fund centers are created for a given FM area.
Each funds center hierarchy has one Top Funds Center located at the top of
the hierarchy. Every other funds center is assigned to a more superior center,
to denote its location in the hierarchy
The funds center master record contains important information, such as the
name and description of the funds center and the name of the person
responsible for the funds center.
You can only have one Funds Center hierarchy per FM area.

Commitment Items
Commitment items describe an organization's functional
breakdown structure.
There are two types of commitment items:
· Summarization items (= hierarchy nodes) - You can
assign a budget to a summarization item, but cannot post to them.
·
Account assignment items - You can assign budgets and
post to these items. These items represent the lowest level in
the commitment item hierarchy.
A commitment item's master record contains important control parameters:
The financial transaction categorizes business transactions from the feeder
Application components (Financial Accounting and Materials Management).
The commitment item category sorts actual/commitment and plan
values into revenues, expenditures, and inventory.

Expenditure Hierarchy
You can create only one commitment item hierarchy for each FM
area.
This hierarchy can then consist of various sub-hierarchies
Fund Centers vs Commitment Items
Funds centers are used to represent organizational units (areas
of responsibility, departments, projects) and are arranged in a
hierarchy.
Commitment items are used to represent functional aspects
(expenditure and revenue structures) in a hierarchy.
The Funds Management application component is used to bring
together organizational and functional structures (funds center
hierarchies and commitment item hierarchies) into one structure
in which each funds center contains the complete commitment
item hierarchy.

Budget Release
Funds Management includes a release option, which you can use to release
the budget bit by bit.
The release is based on the current budget - that is, the original
budget as amended by supplements, returns, and transfers
A release can relate to annual values and/or overall values
Supplements - You assign an additional budget for a funds center or
commitment item.
· Returns - You use a return to give back surplus funds from one FM
account assignment within your hierarchy to superior funds centers and
commitment items, that is the distributable value is increased by the
amount given back.
· Transfers - If there are funds shortages in one funds center and the
available funds in another one have not yet been fully utilized, then Funds
Management enables you to transfer funds from one FM account
assignment to another.
The current year budget = Original Budget + Supplements - Returns +/-
Transfers.
