Background
The new Budget Changes feature is replacing the existing budget modifications feature.

Things to Consider
Required User Permissions:
'Admin' level permissions on the Company level Admin tool.
Additional Information:
The migration to the budget changes feature is permanent. Once completed, Procore cannot restore the budget modifications function.
All numbers in Procore will remain unchanged.
Once migration is complete, All labels and references to 'budget modifications' in Procore's user interface are updated to 'budget changes'.
Important
A new Budget tool configure setting is available after migrating your company to Budget Changes, 'Require net zero Budget Change Amounts'. When the setting is turned OFF, users can create Budget Changes that do not require adjustments to be balanced. When the setting is turned ON, adjustments are required to equal a net-zero total change. See Configure Settings: Budget.
When migrating from Budget Modifications to Budget Changes, Procore will turn the setting ON or OFF based on the following project settings:
If ‘Allow Budget Modifications Which Modify Grand Total’ is turned OFF, ‘Require net zero Budget Change Amounts’ will be turned ON.
If ‘Allow Budget Modifications Which Modify Grand Total’ is turned ON, ‘Require net zero Budget Change Amounts’ will be turned OFF.
For companies using the ERP Integrations tool: Show/Hide
In order to send the budget change to the ERP Integrations tool to be accepted for export by an accounting approver:
