        How do Budgets work online?

In order to use Budgets online you must setup Authorisation either by department or by another contact, for help with this see the following:

• How do I set up order spend limit authorisation?
• How do I set up authorisation for items that aren't on contract?
• How do I set up an order to be authorised by department?

Once the authorisation is setup you will need to assign the budget to the department within Horizon. To do this goto a trader card and click on the 'Departments' tab.

On this screen you will need to add a department or select an existing one, with the department selected simply add a value to the 'Budget' field and select a contact from the 'Authorized By'. Once the Spend exceeds the budget you have set orders will be sent to the selected authoriser for authorization. If you wish to reset a departments spend you can click the 'Clear Spend' button along the top of the trader screen.
