How Budgets Work

Clerk Budgets app tracks budgets based on data from other Clerk apps. Please install at least one application from the list below so that Clerk Budgets can work properly:

• Clerk Invoices
• Clerk Quotes

Here’s a general outline of how budgets work:

• Any invoice or quote from the external app can add to the budget or spend it.
• You can set a static budget amount as well. Invoices or quotes that add to the budget will be summarized with this static budget.
• Each invoice or quote could be linked to multiple budgets with different modes (spend/add)
• Money and time budgets could be tracked independently for each budget
• Each budget has its own currency. Only invoices and quotes in that currency will affect the project budget.
