When you create a vendor purchase order budget, a new object called Budget Header is created and associated with your budget. By default, the budget header enforces strict limits on the amounts vendors can invoice for, based on the Amount and Expense Amount fields.

When the vendor resources enter timecards and expenses, PSA associates those timecards with the appropriate budget header for the vendor account for future invoice creation and reconciliation.
