-999,999.99 to 9,999,999.99. The Amount field defaults to the calculation of Units x Rate. A popup calculator is available when editing this field.

A credit entry is made by preceding the number with a minus sign (example: -150.50). Credit entries can only be made for transactions with a billable, printable Bill Code. Credits can be made to inactive clients. Regular cost transactions with an amount greater than $0.00 cannot be entered for inactive clients.

When a client's Warn if Budget Exceeded check box is selected, if the amount of costs entered for a client (including both work-in-process costs and archived costs) exceeds the Budget Amount or Task Based Billing Budget Amount specified in the Client file, a warning message will be displayed indicating that the budgeted amount has been exceeded. You will not be prevented from adding costs that exceed the budgeted amount.

The "<" and ">" keys can be used to increase or decrease the amount by one dollar at a time.
