** Ensure segments have been defined
* Work Rules ([IDWR])
** Set up work rules with appropriate work calendars for all budgeted positions and assignments, if no calendar is specified then Monday to Friday is assumed.
** Ensure that the status rules have been established
** If establishing budgets in a database separate from production, create standard work rules for loaded or manually entered assignment and positions.
* Positions ([IDPS])
** Ensure that all budgeted positions have an appropriate range, scale/step or wage
** Ensure that the Authorized FTE is completed
** Set up a Default FTE for positions that is less than fulltime
** Set up positions for projected new hires
** Ensure that the standing is set to ‘active’
** Ensure the budget rules is set to ‘budgeted’
** Ensure that the distribution is completed
* Assignments ([IEAS])
** Ensure that all active employees have an appropriate range, scale/step or wage
** Ensure that the Authorized FTE is completed
** Ensure that the distribution is completed
** Use the Scale Override toggle to prevent ‘Stepping’ for UFSTEP if required
* Benefit Plans ([IBPN])

** Only benefit plans that have components B0840 or B0850 __and__ a coverage step code of 1 will be processed.
* Benefit Schedules ([IBSC])
* Set up default coverages for benefit plans that will be used for VACANT positions; only fill the default coverage
* UserCalcs ([IMUC])
** Copy all UserCalcs to be used in FC, especially BE UserCalcs
*** You must be signed in as P2K to copy UserCalcs for FC
*** All UserCalcs copied for the FC 'Product' will be prefixed by 'FC_'
*** The old UserCalc and the new one must be exactly the same after the “FC_” prefix
*** Example of a bad copy: Old UC = ’Supp Life Prem’, New UC = ’FC_Supp Life Pre’ (These are not the same after the ‘FC_’ prefix.)
*** Example of a good copy: Old UC = ’SUPPLIFEPREM’, New UC = ‘FC_SUPPLIFEPREM’
** Change operand types EC/PC to EP/PP when used in a formula
** Ensure all PPH database items are changed to another database item or hard coded
** Write new Benefit UserCalcs that will be applicable for budgeting User Variables ([IMVR])
** Define new user variables that will be applicable for budgeting Wage Scales ([ISWS])
