Every stakeholder has a predetermined budget, which can be used during a session. There are various ways to get an insight into the financial status and thereby the made costs of a stakeholder during a session. The budget can be accessed during a session via the financial system, this option can be added via the action menu.

Editor → Future Design (Ribbon tab) → Actions (Ribbon bar)

The budget overview can be added to a stakeholder by first adding a new action and subsequently selecting finance in the Special Options dropdown menu.
