Sum Budget

The amounts from subordinate main and sum budgets are automatically aggregated when changed. They are then displayed on the sum budget.

You cannot modify any field on lines of sum budgets except the Comment fields. The amounts from all subordinate main and sum budgets are automatically aggregated when changed, and these sums are displayed on the sum budget.

The employee who is responsible for a sum budget must approve all subordinate budgets (after they are submitted) before the sum budget can be submitted for approval.

The amounts on almost all lines on a sum budget are simply sums of all associated lines—the lines created from the same template line as the line on the sum budget—on the main and sum budgets directly below the sum budget in the budget hierarchy. The only lines on sum budgets that are calculated in a different way are the internal and external settlements lines.
