Update Budget Settings (Web)
Sign in to BusyBusy on the web.
From the left navigation menu, select Settings.
Click Budgeting.
In the Budgeting view, enable or disable the components you want to include in your budgets:
Labor Hours – Planned vs. actual labor hours for the project.
Equipment Hours – Planned vs. actual equipment usage.
Labor Costs – Planned labor costs based on employee hourly rates.
Equipment Costs – Planned equipment costs based on equipment hourly rates.
Progress (Premium) – Allows you to track progress value within budgets.
After selecting the components you want, click Update to save your settings.
Any new or existing project budgets will now display only the columns you’ve enabled.
 |
If you enable cost columns, make sure employee hourly rates and equipment rates are set correctly in the Management lists — this ensures your cost calculations remain accurate. |
What Happens If I Turn Off a Budget Column?
Turning off a column (such as Equipment Hours or Labor Costs) does not delete your data.
That column simply becomes hidden from your budget view.
Re-enable the setting anytime to show the data again.
 | Best Practices:
Keep it simple: Start with labor hours only, then add more detail as your team becomes comfortable with budgeting.
