# Budgets & Reporting ## Budgets & Reporting ### Problem Use this guide when spend does not appear in the right budget or report. ### Possible causes * incorrect department, project, or cost center coding * item is not yet approved or exported * reporting filters or date range are incorrect * role visibility limits what the user can see ### Resolution steps 1. Confirm the correct department, project, or cost center is selected. 2. Check whether the item reached the required approval stage. 3. Re-run the report with the correct filters and period. 4. Ask an administrator to confirm visibility settings if data still appears missing. ### When to contact support Contact support when approved data is missing broadly or reports fail to load as expected. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
