how to increase the overall budget of a WBS element?

Hi Gurus,

While posting an invoice, I got the error msg "item... of WBS elementXXXX...exceeding budget".  I went to CJ30 to increase the budget. There I can increase the budget of the WBS element for invidual years, NOT the overall budget. When I am trying to increase the budget for individual years, I am getting stopped by "overall budget value <  total new budget value".

I tried CJ36 and even CJ37 , but there also could not increase the overall budget.

Please help.

Thanks,

Kumar

Dear Kumar,  plz check the authorization by t-code su53. may you don't have the authorization to change the budget.

Plz once again follow the steps below.

1- go to cj30

2- 1st increase the overall budget and save.

3- then once again go to cj30 and increase the amount for individual years.

Through CJ36, you can supplement budget for a WBS element, which can be seen for overall Project along with WBS element. You can view this through tcode CJ33, the impact of CJ36 supplement.

Hi Srihari

I tried that before, whenever I am trying to increase the overall budget, by slecting the drop down, the "overall budget" field is grayed out. The invididual year fields are in editable mode, but that is not helping me getting rid of the error "yearly budget amount < overall budget amount".

To my knowledge the CJ30 tcode is used once for Budget assignment as per standard practice, in case you have want to increase budget for WBS element of project, you have to use CJ36 supplement, because though CJ30 is editable it is not advisable to change and use CJ30 again & again. This will related to no clarity on budget updates cj3b-Display Budget Document ( you will not make about what is original budget and subsequent budget changes made to project)

tcode is clear from sap

CJ30-Change Project Original Budget

CJ36-Budget Supplement to Project
