Enter the GL account number the money is to be transferred from.

If entering a one sided entry, do not enter in the "From Account Number" field

Type
-
Enter a type code to indicate the type of budget transaction entries undertaken (e.g. BA = Budget Adjustment, BT = Budget Transfer)

Enter the amount of the budget adjustments to make, positive or negative. Indicate negative amounts by placing a minus (-) sign before the number.
