The programmers will shoot me but all you accountants will probably be happier. If we are going to go there at all, how about this....
New program to Enter Budget
Prompt for range of accounts (so you can do different kinds of accounts different ways)
Select one of the following methods to determine the budget for the range of accounts selected
1. Use 1 year Past amounts (assumes you would be entering the budget for the new year shortly after running AM-B) multiplied by X (use a factor of 1 to assume the same but use a different factor to anticipate changes. This method would simply take all of the 1 year past values by month, multiply by the factor and save as budget.
2. Enter Annual value and divide by 12. This method would prompt for an annual amount for each account in the range and divide by 12 and save to each month.
3. Suggestions????? Or do these 2 pretty much cover it?
AM-C and GL-A would still allow manual editing month by month.
Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
