Performance Budgeting
*** PB & the Switch from Internet Explorer to Edge****
Microsoft has suspended support of Internet Explorer as of June 2022. After collaborative research and testing, effective immediately, recommendation is to use Microsoft Edge as your preferred internet browser for PB (Performance Budgeting) and related applications such as CORE and infoAdvantage.
Internet Explorer will not be removed from the environment, however the link will progressively begin routing all users to Edge. If you experience performance issues with PB and Edge, please reply back, indicating which version of Edge you are using, as well as any specific functionality issues.
What is PB?
Performance Budgeting (PB) is the module that connects to CORE and is used to create and manage department budgets.
PB does two things:
It is a flexible database that translates the state accounting structure (CORE) into the Long Bill structure to help build an annual budget request
It is a data entry tool that allows us to upload final budget (Long Bill) into the accounting system (CORE)
