Line Types

Different line types can be used across the budget template and budgets.

However, only some of the lines are allowed on certain budgets and subbudgets. The following sections describe the purpose and meaning of each line type, what they can be used for by the user, how calculations are done on lines of these types, and how values on lines of these types are aggregated up through the main and sum budgets of the budget hierarchy.

On budget templates and subbudgets of the budget template, line types can be changed until the budgets are created from this template. On subbudgets of main budgets the line type cannot be changed once it has been set and the line has been saved. The only exception to this rule are the manual and calculation lines. Please see related section on how to convert between these two line types.
