, you typically copy a dataset to create a new instance of existing budget lines in the dataset for a financial year. You the accounting year with which you are working. You can copy one full dataset (from periods 1 to 12) or you can add a second dataset and copy specific periods from one dataset and different periods from another multiple datasets and specify the accounting periods from each dataset. For example, you can copy periods 1 through 9 from the first dataset and periods 10 through 12 from the second dataset—so you are building one dataset from periods in other datasets. , if you are creating a budget for next year, you might want to use this year's Budget from periods 1 to 4, last year's 30/60/90 from periods 5 to 7, and this year's End of Year Forecast from periods 8 to 12. In this example, you are building your new dataset from periods of multiple datasets.

Copying a dataset creates an exact copy of the dataset (or the selected periods in a copied dataset) so that  you you do not have to manually reconfigure all budget line items. 

To create a new budget dataset by copying existing datasets:

  6. From the Year drop-down list, select the year to which you will copy datasets. 
  7. From the Type drop-down list, select the type of dataset that information will be copied to.

    8. Note: The From Dataset section defaults to periods 1 to 12. This default setting assumes you are copying one complete dataset to the To Dataset. If you are copying from more than one dataset, you can change these periods to specify which periods to include.

    1. Click the First Period cell and select a period from the drop-down listthe first period in the range of the dataset from which you are copying.
    2. Click the Last Period cell and select a period from the drop-down listselect the last period in the range of the dataset from which you are copying.

Notes:

  • If there is mismatched data, an error message appears. You must correct the data and resubmit.
  • You cannot copy into a Dataset that is locked dataset.
  • You cannot copy from the same dataset you are copying into.
  • You cannot overlap ranges. You must copy all periods 1 through 12/13 depending on the Financial Year type of accounting year.

  • 30/60/90 will only show in the selection list when a single period is being copied.

  • EPEP Current (Profit) will only show if a single period is selected and it matches the period of the Current Profit.
