Cause

  • We do not Support Budget in executive review when Budget mode is based on Planner.
  • The main issue for based on planner mode is that there is only one budget value stored for the whole plan.
  • There is no way to know what is the budget value for individual user. In the executive review, the entry can be filtered anyway user wants.
  • So entries displayed in Executive Review may not match with the entry in compensation plan, so taking the budget value for the whole plan is not correct. This is the design limitation.

     Note to Support Engineers:

     Please refer internal note for Jira reference where engineering has confirmed this behavior.
