Editing Budget Lines

There are two methods for viewing/editing the Configure/View Budget screen: Table mode and Edit mode. Table mode is not directly editable, however you can edit a budget line by double-clicking on the line itself. Edit mode displays three separate areas: Results, Comparative and Cost Structures. The Cost Structure area is directly editable and changes are immediately viewable in the Results area.

Note: If you have associated Line Config Sets (other than Master) with a budget line, you will only be able to edit Line Type, Factor Mode and all line specific fields below the dividing line.
