Option 8 - Budgets
You can use this function to enter monthly budget amounts for each budget type and account number
combination. This information may be printed on financial statements or on Budget Analysis reports.
You can enter or edit budget amounts for fiscal months 1 to 13, plus Start-of-Year and End-of-Year.
Each amount represents the net activity for the month. You can also enter an annual amount and let the
system allocate the amount evenly by month or week. For revenue and expense accounts the Start-ofYear amount generally should be zero. If your system includes the Budget Analysis application, before
you decide to add a large number of budget records you may wish to use one or more of the utility
functions provided on its Utilities menu. These utilities allow you to create, copy, and delete budget
records very quickly. The created records can then be edited using this Budgets function.
The screen shown below presents information about Budgets.
