How about calling a root budget a "source budget"? These are ways money is coming into the library (the amount from a funding source for a period of time). In my institution, we'll use these as the funds that our parent institution has on file for us, so when we signal to Accounts Payable to cut a check, we'll reference the source budget. All the sub-budgeting will be used purely in-house to help us allocate funds, keep statistics, etc. Looking forward to trying this all out!

Okay - this is how I understand it - correct me if I'm wrong.
Root Budget::Budget::Sub-Budget
I would think: Budget :: Budget Line ...but then I don't know if "Sub-Budget" is confusing in that hierarchy. -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha ------------------------------------------------------------ This email message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain information that is proprietary, confidential, and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
