What I Got In Budgetting? A Headache!
Yey! August 25 is declared a regular non-working holiday in lieu of August 24 as National Heroes Day which fall on a Sunday. Ace will have no work so we can stay overnight in a resort. Looking for a resort is not easy though and it made me pre-occupied of searching the net for a nice resort but with a little bit of privacy. I am searching the net for reviews and rates and had a list of my choices. But little by little the long list became shorter and shorter. The first thing that I am considering is the cottage rate, then the facilities and the place itself - the beach and the scenery. If only we could afford the rates of first class resorts, I wouldn’t have a headache choosing where to go. But since budget is limited, it gave me a headache of choosing our destination. I am used in budgetting. Budgetting the company’s employee relations activities in my previous job and managed to conduct such successfully despite of limited budget. My resourcefulness helped me in planning such activities but with mine and Ace’ upcoming outing, it’s kinda hard.
Speaking of budgetting, I was reminded of my experience in doing my department’s fiscal budget before and doesn’t only gave me a headache but HEADACHES. Though we are using a budgeting software, checking and rechecking the details is so tedious that like other department heads, I usually spend days to finish it. That software is not complete has so many limitations compared to Prophix Budgetting that I have stumbled upon in the net. I think the latter is fay way better than what my previous employer used because of many features such as the workflow and scenario management to name a few and if they’ll ask of my opinion, I would suggest they’ll get Prophix Budgetting software for their convenience.
