The module is designed to perform registration of budget organizations` contracts with goods and services suppliers; to generate commitments automatically on contracts registration in view of budget classification; and to generate commitments referred to invoices when there is no contract. The module provides access to commitments and all referred data.

All expenditures in view of budget classification codes are divided into annual expenditures, current expenditures and expenditures without commitments. For annual commitments the system will not check cash limits availability (only budget commitment limits and/or budget availability). For other types of expenditures the system will check cash limits and will not allow commitments overriding cash limits available.

Budget organizations provide Treasury with contract drafts for registration. The contract is regarded as actual after registration and authorization in the system. While registration the program testing is provided to check budget commitment limits and/or budget availability. For current commitments the additional program testing of cash limits availability is provided. In case of successful program testing the commitment is generated and funds are reserved for the contract. The commitments get unique numbers automatically in accordance with user-defined encoding rules.

On commitment generation the free balances of correspondent limits are reduced.

There are facilities for contract modifications referred to non-performed commitments; completion of the contract ahead of schedule; prolongation of the contract; transfer of the contract to next financial year.

Contract completion is performed when all operations referred to the contract are completed, i.e. there are no debts, no more payments or receipts. On contract completion all available funds are returned to the budget. The correspondent commitment is completed together with the contract.

While commitment generation and during commitment performance period the system provides for automatic update of vendor data referred to specified commitment.

One commitment can be referred to one or multiple invoices. Number of commitments referred to one vendor can be paid by single invoice.

It is possible to search for commitment by vendor data, commitment number, invoice data, purchase order number, payment data, etc.

The facility for commitments transfer between budget organizations while reorganization and liquidation is available in the module.

The module is integrated with Accounts Payable and Cash Management modules.
