    Hi team, to confirm how the Budget Variance report works currently it'll show;

    • Green arrows for favourable amounts
    • Red arrows for unfavourable amounts
    • Increases in the amount from budget will have an upward arrow
    • Decreases in amounts from budget will have a downward arrow

    We appreciate your feedback here however being open, there are no plans to change the way this logic is applied in the report, or to extend the arrow colouring across the figures/amounts in the report.

    I couldn't agree more - currently the variance reporting isn't really fit for purpose so you have to export reports to Excel and fine tune them there and of course that means you miss out on the drill down capability. This should be a pretty simple fix - please add it in.
