1.3. Constraints
When it comes to creating budgets, there are a few important considerations.
1.3.1. First and foremost, each budget name must be one-of-a-kind; no two budgets can share the same name.
1.3.2. Similarly, the budget key or identifier must also be unique, ensuring there are no duplicates.
1.3.3. Moreover, there's a specific limit for the value you can enter in the Budget's Key field - it should fall within the range of 2 to 10 characters.
1.3.4. Lastly, it's essential to note that the Budget Key should only include alphanumeric characters, excluding any special characters or symbols.
Field Name | Field type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
Budget key | Text | Yes | Limit: (Max 10, Min, 2) Contains only alphanumeric characters (A-Z, a-z, 0-9) |
Budget Name | Text | Yes |
|
Budget description | Text |

Budget currency | Select List | Yes |
|
Budget scope | Issue filter / JQL / Project |
| The "Scope" field lets users choose how they define the budget scope, offering three options: "Issue Filter," "JQL," or "Project." Only one option can be selected at a time, and users can update this choice in the budget settings to meet their specific needs. |

1.4. Issues that may arise
When you're attempting to Create a budget, there are a couple of potential issues that might come up.
1.4.1. First, if the name you've chosen for your budget is already being used by someone else, you won't be able to create it.
1.4.2. Similarly, if the identifier or key you've selected for your budget is already in use, you'll encounter the same problem.
1.4.3. Additionally, when trying to create a budget, you might face challenges due to certain limitations associated with the budget key. These limitations include a maximum of 10 characters and a minimum of 2 characters for the key.
