Defining approved job budgets

Define an approved job budget to track job head count, FTE, or both.

To define an approved job budget

  1. Access Job Budget (PA71.1).
    Note: The need to enter a department depends on the count category parameters defined on Position Rules (PA06.1).
  2. Use the following guidelines to enter field values:
    Effective

    The start effective date is earlier or the same as the budget approved through date defined in Position Rules (PA06.1). The end date is optional.

    Note: The use of authorized counts is defined on Position Rules (PA06.1).
  3. Enter your information in the budgeted column. Head count and FTE count must fall between the minimum and maximum limits defined on Position Rules (PA06). If you use authorized counts, the application will automatically copy the budgeted counts over to the authorized column.
  4. Select the Salary tab to specify salary information for the job. The salary is used for information only and is reported on Encumbrance Variance Inquiry (PA82). The salary is not verified by the application.
  5. Select the Reason tab to specify the reason for making a change to a position budget.
  6. Select the Add function.
