Budget details

Budget details for a general ledger account. Create and maintain budget details from the owning budget object.

Budget details include reporting periods for the budget, the budget amount for each period and dimensions, such as departments or locations. Once saved, dimensions added to budget details cannot be changed.

To track budget data by dimension, create a separate budget detail for each dimension value. For example, to budget travel expenses across three locations, add three budget detail objects, one for each location.

For more information, read the overview of creating budgets in the Sage Intacct Help Center.
