To mark a version in-use

About this task

HCL® Marketing Operations considers the active or finalized budget version of a plan, program, or project "in-use" and rolls this version down to linked child objects and up to linked parent objects. When working with budget versions, please note the following.

  • Only one version can be active or finalized at a time.
  • The default budget version is active and in-use for new plans, programs, and projects.
  • After you finalize a version, you can no longer activate versions.
  • After you finalize a version, you can finalize a different version, but you cannot remove the finalized status from all versions. After you finalize one version, one version from that fiscal year must always have the finalized state.
Note: If upgrading to HCL Marketing Operations 8.5.0, the previously existing budget is automatically finalized.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to the version you want to activate or finalize by clicking its name in the versions (Protractor, ruler, and pencil image) drop-down list. The name of the currently selected version appears in red on the drop-down list.
  2. Click Make Current Version Active or Finalize Current Version from the versions drop-down list.

Results

The version is marked active or finalized and is in-use. On the drop-down list, the in-use version is marked with "^" before the name.

Note: To create, edit, delete, update, and mark in-use, you must have the security permissions "edit budget tab."
