Define Rules to Roll Budgets Forward and Close
- Create entry types.
- Create budget amendment types.
- Security:Set Up: Budget Generaldomain in Budgets functional area.
Configure rules that:
- Calculate the balance to roll over and close.
- Apply the relevant entry types for year-end plan or budget processing. Workday maps the source entry types to target entry types when you roll forward budgetary balances to the next year.
The rules enable you to select specific ledger types to add or subtract from your planned amount when you determine the amount to roll over. You can also exclude the plan or budget from the equation to roll only specific ledger account types forward.

Option Description Plan TreatmentSelect how you want to treat the plan lines for the remaining fiscal year and the new fiscal year:- Close: Select to zero out the balance of the remaining fiscal year by adjusting the plan amount.
- Roll as Original without Source Reversal: Select to roll plan lines from a source budget to a target budget. These rolled plan lines replace any existing plan lines on the plan for that new year. On the new plan, any rolled plan lines are indistinguishable from plan lines created when you maintain the plan directly.
- Roll as Original with Source Reversal: Select to roll plan lines from a source budget to a target budget. These rolled plan lines replace any existing plan lines on the plan for that new year. On the new plan, any rolled plan lines are indistinguishable from plan lines created when you maintain the plan directly. Workday then creates a reversal budget entry in the source budget to zero out the budget. Workday also closes the old plan or budget.
- Roll as Supplemental without Source Reversal: Select to roll plan lines from the remaining fiscal year into the plan for the new year. When you maintain the new plan, Workday displays the rolled plan lines on aRolled Budget Linestab.
- Roll as Supplemental with Source Reversal: Select to roll plan lines from the remaining fiscal year into the plan for the new year. When you maintain the new plan, Workday displays the rolled plan lines on aRolled Budget Linestab. Workday also closes the old plan or budget.
