assign a budget amount to project ID

I'd like to create an annual budget by assigning budgeted amounts to various project IDs. However, the current budget settings do not allow me to assign budget amount to a project without the input of expense accounts. In other words, Financial Edge NXT does not support maintaining a project budget without associating the budget amounts to accounts. The goal is to set up a budget for one project (or a combined budget for two/multiple projects) and track the spending against this project budget regardless of expenses accounts used.

    You might consider creating a dummy account that is only used for budgeting purposes. Something like (0000) BUDGET ONLY - DO NOT POST ACTIVITY TO THIS ACCOUNT.

    This would be extremely helpful in my situation as well. 99% of our projects are capital projects and never make it to an expense account until depreciation begins. I would love to see BB add assets as a line under the budget tile as that is where my projects expenditures live.
