Revised Budget: original budget +/- transfers in/out. 4. Actual (memo): transactions posted to the account (payroll checks issued, AP invoices posted, pick tickets issued, journal entries posted).

Requisitions: electronic request for a PO. Once the requisition is turned into a PO the amount moves from the Requisitions bucket to the Encumbrances bucket. 7.
