Good morning.
The accounting budgets allow you to see the comparison between what has been done and what is budgeted, but it does not exercise any control at the time of registration.
It would be interesting to have a functionality that does not allow the accounting record if it exceeds the budgeted amount.
To do this, the following should be done:
1. Have a field in accounting settings that identifies the budget that is going to control the records.
2. An option field that allows the user to configure:
A. if the budget is going to be totally restrictive, that is, it will not allow registration without budgetary allocation under any circumstances.
B. if, on the contrary, it only issues a warning.
C. just not exercising any control.
3. It should also be revised so that the system allows registration exceeding the amount allocated in the budget but after undergoing an approval flow.
All this control must be carried out by controlling the dimensions, since it is possible that the budget allocations are for a specific dimension, such as: by department.
This functionality would provide greater security to the CFOs, thus guaranteeing that the budget approved by their board of directors will never be exceeded.
