Budget cost analysis enables you to report on the details of a selected project budget. If you want to use the budget cost analysis, you can enter a default code in this session.

Purchase Budget Automatically Generate Detail Lines Indicates whether or not purchase budget lines are created
from the current budget. If this check box is selected, the following applies: If you maintain budget parts in the Purchase Budget Part (tpptc4110s000) session, LN prompts you to create budget purchase lines.
