    System Response

    Availability control searches upward through the hierarchy to determine
    the budget-bearing element in which commitment budget availability is
    checked.
    The check is made against the first
    <DS:GLOS.budget_structure_element>BS element</> found to have
    commitment budget. A BS element may be deemed budget-bearing for this
    purpose even if the current budget is zero. This may be the case if
    individual <DS:GLOS.budget_type>budget types</> with values other than
    zero were entered which when totalled result in a current budget total
    of zero.
