Allowances land in the right bucket, so your Goods and Services totals are accurate

Budget Reports Now Separate Goods and Services Allowances

Allowances can now be typed as Goods or Services, so they roll into the correct section and totals of your Budget and Cash Flow reports. Freight and warehousing sit with Services, an overage sits with Goods, and every total reflects reality.

Most allowance adjustments are for services like cartoning, freight, and warehousing, so the Budget Report's final section is now named accordingly. But some allowances are really for goods, an overage, for example, and lumping those in with services threw off the numbers.

Now you can tell Sigma which is which. A new Type column in the budget sub-table defaults to Services and lets you switch an allowance to Goods, so it appears in the correct section and totals of the Budget Report. The Cash Flow Report follows the same logic, and PV adjustments to a Goods allowance show up under Goods. A new Category column lets you tie an allowance to a single category when it applies to just one.

The payoff is simple: your Goods and Services totals finally reflect what the money is actually for.
