7.7 Budget File (ACTBGT)


The Budget File (ACTBGT) allows the budget for a given cost
center to be compared to the charges calculated by CA MICS
Accounting and Chargeback.


USAGE CONSIDERATIONS

Note  the  following  special  considerations  or  techniques
related to using the Budget File (ACTBGT):

1.  You can use Application Data Base Data Entry (MWF;4;2;1)
    to update the information in an ISPF table.  You are then
    automatically prompted to submit the generation job to
    update the file.  This is the usual approach taken to
    update the file.  You can also use the Utility Jobs
    (MWF;4;2;S;3 and MWF;4;2;S;4) to batch load information
    into the ISPF tables and the file.
 
2.  You can obtain a report showing the information in this
    file and the other TABLES files by submitting the
    sharedprefix.MICS.CNTL(PRINTTBL) job from the Print
    Application Data Base Files option of the Accounting
    Administration Process Control menu.

    1 - Cost center
    2 - Invoice category
    3 - Computation code
