The challenge
Line items lack allocation control
Base amounts sit in accounts without a clear, defendable split across cost centers — so remaining dollars and percent allocated stay opaque.
MDSS answer · mBUDGET
mBUDGET line-item allocation puts base, allocated, and remaining on one screen so every dollar has a clear cost-center owner—governable, auditable, and meeting-ready.
