1.3.14 Budget Specifications

You can enter budgets for individual cost centers.  Each
budget entry specifies the budgets for each period of the
year and is associated with a date when the entire record
will become effective.  The budgets can be the amount of
charges to the cost center, an invoice category, or a
computation code.  They can also be the amount of units for a
computation code.

You enter budgets using the Budget panels.

Budgets can be compared with the corresponding charges on
invoices as specified for the invoice format using the
Accounting Options panels.  A warning will be printed at the
bottom of each page if total charges for the cost center
exceed its total budget by an amount greater than a fuzz
value.  You specify the global fuzz value on the Accounting
Options panel, and you can override it for individual cost
centers in Cost Center Attributes.
