Adding expenses to JIRA issues

As well as logging time that you worked on an issue, you can log expenses to the issue. This can be done from within the Jira issue, or from within Budgets.

If you log expenses to an issue, the Account Lead (for the account that is associated with the issue) can view the expenses in the Time and Expenses report and on the account revenue graph. Other users with Manage Accounts permission can also view the report and graph.
