5- HISTORICAL: Select up to when you want to include your historical past in your budget reports.

7- DETAIL LEVEL: Select the amount of detail you want your report to have:

  •     Overview: A summary.
  •     Standard: A basic budget with a standard amount of detail.
  •     Full: A complete report with as much detail as possible.

Producing a complete Budget


To produce a complete budget which includes all financial reports (Profit and Loss, Cash Flow, Balance Sheet, Ratio, and Cost & Funding). Follow the steps below:

 

1- Click on the blue button "Add a report" 2 more times to add "Ratio" and "Cost & Funding".

2- Select each distinct report in the drop down menu.

3- Modify the report to fit your needs (date range, historical, display, level of detail, etc.).

4- We recommend using full detail level (A complete report with as much detail as possible).

5- Generate your PDF/Excel file.


PDF


NOTE The generation of the document may take some time to generate, depending on the size and level of detail (months or years) of the budget you are exporting.


When you print or export your financial projections as a PDF or Excel, comments will not be visible. 


For a smaller PDF file, try exporting your statements as "Years" and not "Months". The information will be the same, only condensed. 


EXCEL


NOTE When you export your budget as an Excel file, you are pulling just the numbers. This means that there are no formulas or equations in your Excel spread sheet, simply the numbers from Budgeto.

Advance Excel skills are needed.


"There is an error with my Excel exportation!" An error can occur with certain computers (depending on the settings within the Excel application found on the computer). When you have a green corner in a given cell (top left), it means that there is an error. Select the problematic cells (all of them), then click on the yellow warning button (!) and then click on "Convert to Number". The issue should be resolved.
