When you are exploring explore a new budget or forecast, you might realize you need to make some changes to the contents and layout. For example, suppose you create a Sales budget workbook with two levels, : Country and Branch. Then, after some consideration, you want to add a third level for the Product Class. You can add that additional level to the budget setup.
You can edit the setup of a budget or forecast at any time. If your change is destructive, you will get a message informing you that it might change the budget structure but you can still proceed with that change.
Changes to the following settings are considered to be destructive:

Template (for financial budgets only)
