Which two statements are true about budgets in NetSuite? (Choose two.)

NetSuite's budgeting functionality allows for comprehensive financial planning and analysis. Budgets can be established not only for standard financial accounts but also for statistical accounts, enabling the tracking and planning of non-monetary metrics like headcount or square footage. In a OneWorld account, budgets are typically created in the local currency of each subsidiary. When these local budgets are viewed in consolidated reports at the parent level, their values are translated into the parent's currency. This translation process uses exchange rates which can change over time, causing the consolidated budget amounts to fluctuate.

B. NetSuite budgets are primarily for reporting and analysis (e.g., Budget vs. Actual reports); they do not include a native "Enforce" setting that blocks transactions from exceeding budgeted amounts.

C. A budget amount set directly in the root parent's currency for the consolidated entity will not fluctuate when viewed in that same currency. Fluctuation occurs during currency translation.

1. Oracle NetSuite Help Center. (SuiteAnswers ID: 9918). Setting Up a Budget.

This document states

"You can create budgets for accounts

including statistical accounts

and classify them by department

class

location

item

or customer/project." This directly supports the correctness of option A.

2. Oracle NetSuite Help Center. (SuiteAnswers ID: 38786). Budgets in OneWorld.

This article explains

"When you create a budget for a subsidiary

you enter amounts in the subsidiary's base currency... When you run a consolidated report that includes subsidiary budgets

the budget amounts are translated to the currency of the parent." This supports option D

as currency translation inherently involves potential fluctuation based on exchange rates.

3. Oracle NetSuite Help Center. (SuiteAnswers ID: 10092). Budget vs. Actual Report.

This document describes the purpose of budgets as a tool for comparison and analysis against actual performance. It makes no mention of enforcement or transaction blocking

which confirms that the primary function is reporting

making option B incorrect.
