Managing and Using Budgets

Once Budgets are added to Cases, the balance will be displayed in different places such as on the booking, on the invoice creation screen, in the Case’s section and in the Client’s Account section.

The budget balance for each category is updated when items are invoiced not when the booking is made.

When invoicing for NDIS claims the option to select or change the item Billing Category is displayed on the invoice creation screen.
