On the budget overview (Orders > Budgets, /b2b_platform/budgets), click "Create Budget".
In order to create a budget, you need to give it a name, choose a peroid (per order, daily, monthly, per quarter, yearly), set the monetary threshold, select an approval employee (each employee from the company can be chosen). Optionally, you can restrict categories.
A budget will only be used if it's marked as activated.
If a budget has employees assigned, these employees can only buy products with a budget selected during checkout, unless "restrict categories" is configured.
Restricting categories limits the budget to the selected categories. For example, if you restrict Budget Workwear to "Clothing", the budget Workwear can only be selected for products in "Clothing". If you try to purchase something from the category "Electronics", the budget Workwear cannot be selected inside the checkout.
Until a certain budget is exceeded, the employee can freely buy products in accordance with the configuration.
If a budget is exceeded, the employee cannot purchase any goods and is required to get clearance from the person who is responsible for the budget.
The time intervals for budgeting are defined as follows:
Daily -> daily from 12:00 a.m. to 11:59 p.m.
Per Quarter -> January to March / April to June / July to September / October to December
Montly -> 01.xx - last day of the month (28./29./30./31)
Annual -> 01.01 - 31.12
The intervals are stored in the Shopware Core database table scheduled_task.
