Every transaction that updates a Nominal Account 'uses' some of the Nominal Account Budget. This is called the 'Committed Value'.

The Committed Value button is found on the Nominal Account record below the Difference % fields.

Clicking on the drill button by the Committed Value Period to Date figure displays an Enquiry window that lists the Transactions making up the value.

Committed Value (Batched Purchase Orders and Credit Notes), will only show on Nominal Ledger Expense Accounts that belong to Major Headings:

Values will still be calculated for other Major Headings, so that if the Major Heading on an Account is changed, you will then see the Committed Value if it is now relevant.

When Batched Purchase Orders and Credit Notes are posted, the Committed Value is transferred to the Actual Value.
