Revenue and Expenditure Tabs

 

The Revenue Object tab allows you to display, create, update, and delete BC revenue accounting lines. The data is stored in the Pending Budget Construction General Ledger. The base budget amount is derived from the GL adjusted base budget accumulated totals for the current year and the requested budget is set to zero. You are to fill in the requested budget amount and optionally define the monthly budget.

 

Notice that when an accounting line includes the salary object codes defined in Labor Object Code, the line includes additional buttons relating to salary, such as the show benefits and salary setting buttons.

pencil-small      As the revenue and/or expenditure budgets are adjusted, this tab shows the total budget in parentheses.
