## Initial Setup
When you visit this page for the first time, you will be greeted with a setup screen to choose how you want to manage your budget:
Choose this option if you want to use a single main budget for the project.
Choose this option if you want to create and compare multiple budget scenarios for different situations (optimistic, pessimistic, etc.).
After making your selection, you will be redirected to the main budget table screen. You can change this setting later from the **Settings** (
) icon in the top right corner of the page.

## Important Notes
The ability to create, edit, and delete budget items depends on the user's [roles and permissions](/en/platform-rules/roles-and-permissions-rbac).
Many columns in the table (e.g., Revised Budget, Final Cost, Variances) are calculated automatically based on data in other columns and cannot be edited directly.
