Description

The WRITEBACKPROJECTUPDATEBUDGET function changes the current budget (for the specified revision of the specified project) so that it matches the current forecast for that project.

These values would then be retrievable through the Velixo project budget functions (PROJECTBUDGETAMOUNT, PROJECTREVISEDBUDGETAMOUNT, PROJECTBUDGETQUANTITY, and PROJECTREVISEDBUDGETQUANTITY).

Use of either WRITEBACKPROJECTUPDATEBUDGET or WRITEBACKPROJECTFORECAST requires the prior installation of the Acumatica Customization Project.
