Error messages must be solved before moving forward

For instance, if you have the message "Activity type xxx cannot be allocated from cost center xxxx-xxxx" it means that the budget was not entered with KP26. 

 

If no errors found, flag the options:

  • Create BTCI session
  • Send BI execution

Execute 

A batch input is generated and automatically processed. 

A message informs that the session was successfully processed
