Workamajig allows for Financial Budgets to be put into the system at a number of different levels. The budget can be used for comparison purposes when running your P&L financial reports. The following dimensions can be defined on your financial budget: GL Company, Office, Department, GL Class and Client. You can create as many financial budgets as you wish in the system, as the report functions will ask to select a specific budget to be used. For the Client P&L Report, the selected budget will look only at the Client specific budget numbers, not the agency level/combined budget numbers.
