How do I manage ministry budgets?

Ministry Budgets give leaders a shared view of categories and spending so requests and decisions stay grounded in the same numbers. Use them when planning a season or reviewing expenses mid-year.

Leaders can also reach this area from a ministry hub when the module is enabled for that ministry. Network administrators can open it from Admin Tools for broader management.

Start at More > Admin Tools, or open the ministry from Ministries. The required permission and module setting may be needed before this appears.

Admin Tools

From Admin Tools

1. Tap More in the bottom navigation.
2. Tap Admin Tools under Administration.
3. Tap Ministry Management, then tap Budgets. You can also enter Budgets in Search Admin Tools.
4. Create or open a budget category, update amounts or notes, then save.
5. Save your changes when you finish editing.

From a ministry hub

1. From Home, tap Ministries.
2. Open the ministry you lead.
3. Tap Budgets if the module is enabled.
4. Create or open a budget category, update amounts or notes, then save.

If the module or an action is missing, ask a network administrator to enable it for the ministry and review your permissions.
