The Import Project Budgets application consists of the following functions:
Function parameter setup and update - Store and retrieve run-time parameters for the process server.
Input file selection - View and select input files available for processing.
Project ID selection - Process rows in the input file for the project numbers entered.
Budget Revisions - Select this checkbox if the input file contains project budget revision data in the pre-defined format. You are not required to provide a mapping definition.
Mapping definition selection - Select mapping definitions.
Run-time values prompting - The application will prompt you to enter data if the source of data for a target columns is required at import time. For input files with repeating columns, the Fiscal Year and Accounting Period entered must be the starting Fiscal Year and Accounting Period for the first repeating column. For all other repeating columns, the application will compute the Fiscal Year and Accounting Period based on the number of periods in any given fiscal year.
Run this process after creating source file definitions and mapping in the Interface Configuration screen, and after project budget files have been created and are ready to be imported.
