Diagnosis As part of the euro changeover for investment programs, the systemgenerates automatic adjustment line items for the investment programbudget. The purpose of these adjustment items is to correct anydifferences that arise due to rounding during the euro conversion, sothat the budget remains consistent. There are three different types ofinconsistencies, for which elementary adjustment line items areautomatically created, per program position: RESET N1. Negative budgets (overall or annual values): The system generates apositive adjustment line item for the amount of the negative budget, sothat the budget is reduced to zero. Sum of annual values greater than overall value: The system generatesan adjustment item for the amount of the difference. Budget less than distributed budget (overall or annual values): Thesystem generates an adjustment item for the amount of the difference. When creating an elementary adjustment item of this kind, however, theassumption is made that the adjustment due to the euro conversioncannot exceed a maximum of 10.00 euros. In the present case, however,at least one elementary adjustment item was determined that is greaterthan 10.00 euros. Reminder: In order to preserve the hieararchical consistency of thebudget, the system rolls up the elementary adjustment items within theinvestment program hierarchy. The absolute adjustment amounts thatarise in this way per program position can (if the investment programis large enough) actually then be greater than 10.00 euros. Therefore,the system performs checks against the threshold value of 10.00 eurosonly on the elementary adjustment items. System Response The elementary adjustment items that are greater than 10.00 euros areignored but a warning is issued. The reasoning here is that theseinconsistencies normally do not stem from the euro changeover, but areactually inconsistencies that the user deliberately chose to allow,even before the euro conversion. (You can allow such inconsistencies,for example by saving the budget and choosing "save without check"). Procedure You have several options. RESET N1. Allow the inconsistencies to stand. Since the inconsistencies with all probability are the result ofdeliberate decisions made before the euro conversion, there is no needto correct them now. Manual adjustments Correct some or all of the inconsistencies manually as you see fit. Automatic adjustment There are two different alternatives: Subsequent restart of the appropriate euro program Start report RAIPEWU2. On the initial screen, enter the investmentprogram in the parameter PA_PRNAM and the approval year in PA_GJAHR. Donot make any entry for the parameter PA_POSID. Parameter CORR_MAX contains the threshold value for automaticelementary adjustment items. Increase this threshold value, forexample, to the maximum possible value, if you want to ensure thatelementary adjustments are performed no matter what. Postprocessing using the standard functions for consistency checks ininvestment programs. Call transaction IMCOC1 in order to perform an automatic check forinconsistencies. Advantage as compared to RAIPEWU2: There is a test run option and anextensive log for this transaction. |
