What is My Available Capital Project Budget?

Overview

The Available Budget pages allow you to review the available budget for a given department or project
without having to know which budget ledgers to use. These pages also help users understand why they may
see differences in Commitment Control (“KK”) Actuals vs. General Ledger (“GL”) Actuals (usually a result of
transactions that have been budget checked but not posted to GL, such as items still in workflow).
Budget Ledger definitions in Compass 9.2 are based on Fund Code. For projects created in the 9.2
environment (vs the previous 9.0 environment) or current fiscal year activity for departments, the Available
Budget pages should allow you to easily reconcile KK vs. GL Actuals. The details provide an accurate
representation of Available Budget with a clear understanding of which transactions are still in workflow
(usually the source of budget checked items not yet in GL Ledger).
