Process
This Job Aid describes the steps to create a Phase Reimbursable Budget (BGPHR) Transaction for a Project.
BGPHR is used to set up the budget for a project when Reimbursable Budget Structure 40 is selected for a Major Program. There are two levels for budget structure 40 and both are required for a reimbursable project. Level 1 includes Department, Major Program, Program, Phase, Funding Profile and Funding Priority. Level 2 also includes Funding Line in addition to those at Level 1.
1. Enter BGPHR in the Global Search Field
2. Select Create on the Financial Transaction page.
3. Enter the Dept, check the Auto Numbering and Select Continue to create a new BGPHR draft transaction.
4. All fields in the Header are optional. In addition to the Header, there are 2 sections for each level, with one required to enter budget detail information.
Budget control on line level is optional. If you need to setup line level budget controls, please refer to the job aid: Creating a Reimbursable Program Budget (BGPDR) Transaction for a Grant with Budget Control at the Line Level
5. Set up required budget details at both the Funding Line and Funding Priority levels.
Go to the Phase Expense section (Funding Line Level).
Click on the "+" to insert a new line.
