CSAS/2 Budget Management divides the budget process into two distinct
phases. The Pre-Approval Phase and the Post-Approval Phase. The Pre-Approval
Phase allows the organization’s administrative personnel to perform ad hoc
(or “what if”) budgets before presenting to the governing board or city
council. Once the budget is approved and/or accepted, the Post-Approval
Phase allows the budget to be amended. CSAS/2 Budget Management tracks all
budget amendments as if they were transactions complete with journal number
and explanation. New budgets may be enter manually or, by using the “Update
Function” feature, the new budget may be based on a variety of automated
math functions using an existing budget, actual expense and income amounts,
or plugged-in values. The budget update functions are very productive and
easy to use within CSAS/2 Budget Management. However, for the spreadsheet
aficionado, import from and export to office tools such as Microsoft Excel
will greatly enhance productivity.
