3. Create Budget Entry
Generate a new Budget Entry record for each department identified in the cost center retrieval.
4. Update Budget Status to 'Drafting'
Set the status field of the newly created budget entries to 'Drafting' to signal the start of the process.
5. Retrieve Previous Year Actuals
Get historical spending data from the 'Maintenance Actuals' data model for comparison.
6. Calculate Variance Baseline

7. Sum Total Proposed Budget
Aggregate all proposed budget values from all department entries to calculate the total company-wide maintenance requirement.
8. Assign Budget Review Task
Create a task for the Finance Manager to review the aggregated budget totals against the company's capital allocation.

Send an email to Department Heads if their submitted budget was flagged for overruns during the review.
11. Calculate Percentage of Total Budget
Calculate what percentage of the total global maintenance budget each individual department represents.

Create a high-level summary report showing total budget, departmental breakdown, and variance analysis for executive leadership.
