Please add two fields in the Budget Manager grid for project and grant. It would make the entry similar to a journal entry and I wouldn't have to create a distribution each time I want to allocate a portion of a budget line to a project and/or a grant. Also, it would allow me to look at the budget manager and see in one grid what projects and grants have budget items in which accounts.
Please take ,a look at the Beta view of budgets in Financial Edge Nxt, I believe our new work addresses your idea.
