Converting budget information
After you review or modify the budget conversion options that you defined on Budget Interface Maintenance (FB65.1), you can convert non-Lawson budget data. Use this procedure to convert budget information to the General Ledger application.
Use these guidelines to specify the field values:
- Run Group
-
Select a run group name you defined on Conversion Budget (FB65.1) that you will convert the budget data.
- Report
-
Select how the budget defined in the run group is updated when you run FB165. The default is Report Only (R), which only prints the report. You can select Update and Report (U) to update the budget and print the report.
- Update
-
Select how the accounts for the budget defined in the run group are updated. Select from these options:
-
Merge (M): Adds the conversion amount to the existing budget detail records
-
Replace (R): Replaces the existing budget detail records with the conversion amount
-
Ignore Duplicate (I): Does not update the existing budget detail records with the conversion amount. This is the default option.
-
- Conversion Method
-
You can convert budgets by accounting unit or by level. The default setting is Both.
Select Accounting Unit (A) to convert budgets by company and accounting unit.
Select Level (L) to convert budgets by company and level.
- Bypass Organization Code
-
Select whether the system searches for a valid Organizational Code defined in GL08.1 or converts the transactions to accounting units or levels. The default setting is No.
- Bypass Account Code
-
Select whether the system searches for a valid account code defined in GL09.1 or converts transactions to accounts and subaccounts. The default setting is No.
