Budget Overview Example Objective 1 : Projects Overview NOT being covered today: • Create, Maintain, and Submit Proposal • Create and Maintain Award, Budgets, and Contracts • Create Projects, Activities, and Team Members • Applying Transactions to Grants (Cost Collection) • Billing Agencies/sponsor… Objective 1 : Projects Overview Currently MDC manages more than 500 active Capital Projects and Grant with a combined budget of $600M across multiple funds. Objective 1 : Projects Overview (GM001) (CP001) Campus Solution Assets Objective 2 : Projects ChartField Requirements When dealing with Projects additional ChartFields are required: 1. PC_BU or PC Bus Unit (Predefined) • GM001 (Grants) • CP001 (Capital Projects) • SP001 (Special Projects) 2. Project ID (User defined & unique) IOR15001, HQ3939, DPEL67, etc. 3. Activity ID (Project ID dependent) Normally ‘01’ Objective 2 : Projects ChartField Requirements PC_BU, Project ID, and Activity ID are required ChartField values for all financial transaction processed in the AP, PO, TE, AM modules as well as transactions created in GL or from other Pillars (HCM, Campus Solution). Objective 3 : Project Budgets and Project Expenditures Budget KK module GM for Grants Ledger Group: (GM001) PC for Capital Projects (CP001) & Special Projects (SP001) Expenses MD_PRJC & MD_PRJP Ledger Group: DETAIL PO AP TE GL (HCM CS) Objective 4 : Ledger Groups for Projects Budget Overview Commitment Control > Review Budget Activities > Budget Overview Objective 4 : Ledger Groups for Projects Budget Overview : Commitment Control > Review Budget Activities > Budget Overview Ledger Groups Description Suggested ChartField MD_PRJC Project Child Budget Project ID MD_PRJP Project Parent Budget Project ID DETAIL Detail Ledger Group ICS Objective 5 : DETAIL Ledger Group DETAIL Ledger Group • Does not provide budget balances • Expenses shown by detail general ledger code • Encumbrances and Pre-Encumbrances shown by detail general ledger code • Available balances – will always appear as negative because there are no budgets Objective 6 : CHILD & PARENT Ledger Groups PARENT (MD_PRJP) Ledger Group Budgets/expenses/encumbrances and pre-encumbrances shown at a POOLING level • You will need to read the activity with the help of the pooling definitions – also known as “tree” • Pooling account acts as a master account that includes a group of sub-accounts, also known as general ledger codes – therefore, as long as there is sufficient funds for a particular pooling account, there will be sufficient funds for all detail accounts under it. Example - no need to request budget transfers from one travel account into another, as long as the travel pooling account has sufficient balance. • The available balances in each pooling account will dictate whether or not there are sufficient funds to process a Purchase Order/Travel expense, etc. prepared using detail general ledger codes. • This is the ledger you will use to have a full picture of your grant activity. Objective 6 : CHILD & PARENT Ledger Groups CHILD (MD_PRJC) Ledger Group • The “Child” ledger provides the grant information in the same format as the “Parent” ledger, however, there is an important change being implemented to ease the tracking of your grant activity that will soon be available: • This ledger will show the budget/expenses/encumbrances and pre-encumbrances not a pooling level, but a more descriptive level very close to your detail general ledger codes. • New pooling definitions – “Tree” - will soon be available to help you look your grant activity up in the system. Objective 6 : CHILD & PARENT Ledger Groups Budget Overview : • Requisitions/Purchase Orders, etc. will continue to require the detail ledger code and the complete charstring. Please note that Capital Projects and Grants require the Project ID, PC BU (always 01) and Activity (always 01) as part of the ChartField string. Without these fields your transactions will not go through.
