Warning: Incorrect editing of actuals may have serious consequences and should be allowed only under the strictest controls and highest priority.
Holding a variety of budget types requires flexibly defined input screens used by the 'Edit MA budgets/actuals' option. This option does so by allowing you to define as many different formats as you require, each with a choice of the following:
Minimum user priority required to use the format in 'Edit MA budgets/actuals'.
Up to four budget types to be presented on screen for the account code being edited or displayed.
Each budget type definable as display only, or alternatively, editable.
These features can therefore provide input screens to meet a variety of situations, for example:
A low priority display only screen.
Current and revised budgets together on one screen with only revised budgets being editable.
Current and previous year's figures on one screen for comparison purposes, with actuals as display only.
When creating input formats, see the System parameters (System Maintenance menu) regarding controls on which periods can be edited.
