You can allow the system to override budgetary control transactions that fail absolute budgetary control. You enter anOverride Amount, which is the maximum a/mount per transaction per account for which you can override funds. You can exercise override only on funds reservation, not on funds checking.
You cannot override a transaction that fails absolute budgetary control unless you can override each individual distribution that fails budgetary control.
ExampleYou enter a purchase order and distribute it to three programs. Two of the programs have insufficient funds. You set up budgetary control options to allow override on only one program. Therefore, you cannot approve the purchase order.
Suggestion: Set up one set of budgetary control options that allows liberal override and another set that allows limited override or no override. Assign the first set of budgetary control options to a user or responsibility who has the most authority for making override decisions. Assign the second set to all other responsibilities or users.
