Grid List of budget codes

A budget envelope is linked to a budget code. This budget code defines the tracking level (Site or Company). Depending on this rule, the envelope is attached either to a company or to a site. All lower levels (fiscal year, line) inherit the company code or site code associated with the envelope.

The budget chart of accounts must be the same as the chart of accounts of the main analytical ledger of the company. Otherwise, the envelope creation is prohibited.

The dimension types determined in this budget code and in the analytical ledger to which the company is linked must be identical.

This budget code must be reserved for the Operational budgets. This allocation is made possible by checking the indicator "Operating budget" of the budget code. In this case, the entry of the analytical budgets by the standard functions is prohibited under this budget code. The management of the operating budgets is triggered and the envelopes, budgets by fiscal year and budget lines are attached to this budget code.

  • Description (field DES)

This field is used to link a description to its record. This description can be printed on the records, displayed when the record code is entered in a screen, or used on selection.
The title, used by default in the reports and entry masks is replaced by the short title when it is required by display and print constraints.

By default the short title, the long title or the column header of a data are recorded (on creation/update) in the connection language of the user.
You can add your translation in another language using the Translation function:

  • Click Translation from the Actions icon in the corresponding field.
  • In the Translation window, add a new language code with the translation in this language.

A user who logs on with this language will view the short description, long description or column header in their connection language if a translation exists. Otherwise, these descriptions will be available in the folder language.

SEEINFOThe connection language must be defined as a default language for thefolder.
