Streamlined processes, including creating individual budgets, changing budget models, consolidating budgets, and collaborating among departments.
Flexible control over how your data summarizes, so your budget administrator can easily organize company charts of accounts; control how posting data consolidates; and create rollups for accounts, cost centers, or accounting entities that your organization requires.
Quickly view current budget-to-actual comparisons to help you understand the effect of changing numbers on your plans.
