GL Administrator Roll Budget Report overview

General Ledger > Administration > GLA Reports > GLABR

Function acronym: GLABR

Use this report to continue your budget into future periods that you set up on a period by period or quarter by quarter basis. GL Administrator Roll Budget Report takes the budget period amounts from the period range specified and copies them to the new period(s). If the new budget amounts must be greater or less than the current budget amounts, you can adjust them.

The new budget amounts are added to the selected revision number. A new revision number is not created with the new amounts.

Example:

Budget/Revision #1 was set up in GL Budget Setup for the Utilities Expense (00-0-5100-040) account code for the first quarter of the year:
Period Period Amount
Period 1 $1,000.00[+]
Period 2 $1,000.00[+]
Period 3 $1,200.00[+]

After Period 3 has ended, the budget can be rolled forward. In the next quarter, the Utilities Expense budget is only 90% of the current budget. Specify the report parameters as:

Account #: 00-0-5100-040

From Period: 1

Fiscal Year: 2020
