Questions
Is the forecast exact? It is not a promise. It uses your orders from the last 60 days and is rougher when there are few orders.
What does "Stop" next to a cost do? The cost stops counting from this month. Past months stay the same.
Who can change costs? Only the owner. Others with access to money see the numbers.
