Budget and Expense
Managing your event budgets and expenses has never been easier. Organize spending, track budgets, and see at a high level, how you are tracking for each event.
The first step is creating a Budget and Expense
record to group all future created Expense
records.
Then you can create expense records related to an event and based on the Expense
category, they will automatically relate to the Budget and Expense record, then roll up to the Event.

Once you have an actual price based on your budget, you can file an expense. Expenses track the actual amount you have spent overall on your event. In the example below, we budgeted for $50 but actually spent $75 on Audiovisuals.
To create a new Expense Entry follow these steps:
- Click "New" Expense Entry (related list) on the Event
