Result

As well as the assigned and distributable (=budget - assigned) budget, the system displays (under controlling element) the budget carrying element that is on the next level up from a WBS element that does not have any budget in the project structure. On this controlling element, all postings (that were made on WBS elements with no budget) are cumulated as allotted funds.

The current assigned and distributable values are displayed after checks are made.
