• "Budget to be calculated" line: this is the budget data to be calculated.
  Indicate the analytical charges to be modified / calculated. It is also possible to assign a variable pre-fixed V_, which makes it possible to use the budgetary calculation for budget lines that need additional criteria at the moment of the calculation. It is not possible to assign wildcards ("?" or "*"), neither in the line nor in the variable.
• Next lines: code of the budget to be distributed. Automatically assigned by Sage X3 (F1, F2, F3 etc...).
  It must be based on the same analytical ledger, on the same account or group of accounts and on the same analytical dimension or group of dimensions. It is possible to indicate fixed charges with or without wildcards ("?" or "*") and variable prefixed with V_.

For instance, it is possible to indicate for the budgetary line to be calculated: 607000 / SERV01 / DIV01 and for the budget line to be allocated: 607* / SERV01 / DIV01. In this scenario, all the budgetary line amounts 607*/SERV01/DIV01 (that is 607000 / SERV01 / DIV01 and 607100 / SERV01 / DIV01 and 607200 / SERV01 / DIV01), are copied to 607000/SERV01/DIV01.

Nevertheless if it is necessary to calculate and/or allocate the common charges to several budgetary formula lines, it is simpler to use variable.

Example: case of a "Company" budget calculation corresponding to the sum of budgets for multiple "Sites": the budget lines of sites are the same for each line of the formula. A variable can thus make it possible to avoid entering a budget line for each site.
