Budget Line Items Details

You can add income and expense lines to an existing budget. No income and expense lines are created when you create a new budget.

Notes:

• Depending on your budget template settings, you can configure either only one income or expense section but not both. You can add the income and expense lines for the budget amount and time using different budget templates. For more information on budget templates, see Creating a Budget Template.
• The General Template budget template is the default template provided in the Planning package in the initial Setup. If you want to use the Employee and Rate budget template, Headcount By Resource template, or the Rate and Quantity budget template, you must create it from the Budget Template page. For more information, see Creating a Budget Template.
