Summary :
This SAP Note addresses ambiguities related to the calculation basis for budget carryforwards in projects and orders. It clarifies that the actual costs involved are calculated from the 'annual budget' minus 'distributed budget' and 'actual costs', excluding certain costs like revenue and commitments. The function allows for unused budgets of closed fiscal years to be carried into the next year with provisions to adjust carryforwards based on previous runs. Additionally, specific cost elements and budgeting statuses affect how actual costs and carryforwards are calculated and posted. Key transactional requirements and system behaviors in different fiscal scenarios are detailed.

Key words :
'annual budget' - 'distributed budget' - 'actual costs', sender year distributed annual budget, receiver year current annual budget, sender year existing carryforwards, sender year determined actual, current annual budget, negative budget carryforwards, internal business volume, fiscal year change, closed fiscal year
