What is 'RIB object' in SAP PSM-FM-BCS - Budget Control System?

RIB object - Overview

• Component: PSM-FM-BCS

• Component Name: Budget Control System

• Description: An aggregation object for the definition of a RIB rule, on which revenues are aggregated and to which revenue budget may be assigned. The RIB object is derived from a revenue budget address. This assignment is user-defined in BCS Customizing for Revenues Increasing the Budget. For aggregating available revenues posted to a posting address, BCS uses a two-level hierarchy, as follows: Posting address -> budget address assignment defined in BCS budget structure -> RIB object. On the level of the RIB object, you assign a rule for the budget increase, defining, for instance, the following: Which expenditure budget addresses are to receive budget? Which types of revenue invoices or payments increase the budget? Which calculation formula is applied for determining the available budget?

  Key Concepts: 
  RIB object stands for Resource-Related Internal Budget Object. It is a component of the Budget Control System (BCS) in SAP. It is used to store budget data and to control the budgeting process.

  The RIB object is used to define the budget structure and assign budget amounts to different cost centers or organizational units. It can also be used to monitor and control the budgeting process. The RIB object can be used to set up a budget plan, which is a plan that defines how much money should be allocated for each cost center or organizational unit. The budget plan can then be used to track actual spending against the planned budget.
