This process explains how to  create or maintain a budget. If you wish to use a Budget Profile in your budget making decisions, it must be defined first using the  Budget Profile   program.  To create and maintain a Budget perform the following: 1. From the  ProStix Main Menu  select ' General Ledger ' then ' Budgeting ' then ' Budget  Maintenance' . 2. From the 'Select Company' screen, select the required company.    3. The 'G/L Budget' screen prompts you to input a reference for this budget and to select the financial year. Refer to the 'G/L Budget fields' collapsible link for a screenshot and an explanation of these options. 4. The next two screens prompt you to enter the budget details. Refer to the 'Additional Budget fields' collapsible link for a screenshot and an explanation of these options. 4. The proportion to be allocated for each month is displayed on the screen and can be modified to more closely suit your needs. If you chose to manually spread the total budget amount over each month, then the amounts allocated against each month is zero. Type the allocated $ value for each month, then select <F1> to update.
