Issuing Budgets

Budgets can be issued completely, or only for specific items. When a change to the budget occurs, it is necessary to repeat these steps to issue the budget for that particular item.

To issue a budget:

  1. From the Purchasing menu, selectIssue Budgets.

Or, click the Issue Budgets icon in the Purchasing toolbar.

  1. Issue the budget by clicking the checkbox next to any node (at the estimate, option, activity or item level). If a “parent” node is checked, all “children” nodes will also be checked.

Note

Typically, the budget for the entire job is issued at one time. To issue the entire budget, click the checkbox next to the Estimate node.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  1. Click the Issue Budgets icon, and a warning report appears if remaining issues exist.

  1. To cancel the issue budget process to make further corrections, click the Cancel button at the bottom of the warning report.

  1. To print a hard copy of the warning report, click Print on the lower left side.

  1. If the warnings listed in the report are acceptable, click the Continue button at the bottom of the screen to issue the budgets.

If the issue process was successful, the Information screen will display. All budgets that were successfully issued will now display in the Send to Timberline Accounting screen on the Budgets tab.

 

 

  1. Click OK to close this screen.

Note

Errors can be caused by invalid suppliers, cost codes and categories. Purchasing will prevent invalid information from being sent to Sage Timberline® Office Accounting.
