The Budget Control Settings report contains several columns that explain how repair budgets are recorded. Each column highlights a different part of the budget, including the original amount, payments, variances, and any underspend or overspend.
The columns are explained in the list below:
P’d Budget (A): The initial repair budget set for the period.
P’d Paid (B): The total amount paid during the period.
Variance (A-B): The difference between the initial budget and the paid amount.
Underspent (X): The amount the unit spent less than the budget.
Overspent (Y): The amount the unit spent more than the budget.
Retained Budget (X+Y): The combined figure from underspent and overspent values.
Carried Over: The budget amount moved forward into the next period.
📌 Note: The labels A, B, X, and Y are used within the report to make it clear how each value is calculated.
