Use this form to view budget-related updates that would be written to the general ledger and that are generated by the current project forecast transaction.
Based on the quantity, cost price, sales currency, project, category, and dates that are entered in the forecast transaction, general ledger previews simulate how the ledger updates would look if they were actual budget register entries.
