Activity Budgets By Activity (AC20.4)

Use Activity Budgets By Activity (AC20.4) to define and maintain activity budgets by activity. For each account category of the activity, you can add, change, or delete the budget amount, factor, rate, or units. You can define a budget with amount values only, unit values only, or amount, rate, and units.

Processing Effect

If the Budget line has two values, the program calculates the third using the formula:

Amount = Rate * Units.

If the budget has all three values, the program recalculates the amount as Rate * Units and rounds the amount and units.

In the Budget field, you can select Attachments and define URL links or comments.

More Information

Use the Multi Year Spread action to spread the budget amount evenly through all periods and years of a budget. To create a Multi Year Spread budget, enter the detail information in the detail line, and leave the Year and Period blank. When using this action, the Compute, Parameter, and Spread Code fields must also be blank.

Use AC21 (Budget Change Orders) to change a budget and provide an audit trail of your changes.
