*Budget settings determine how the template budget is updated, when the original / current budget is captured and how the original / current budget is calculated.

**Variance codes set up can require selection of a variance code whenever modifying any system-generated PO or creating any manual PO. Variances can then be tracked on a lot basis by the variance log, or by enhanced reporting.
