A budget moves through Draft → Bid → Awarded → Working → Final.
- Draft, Bid and Awarded are before the lock. Change between them freely from the status in the budget bar.
- Locking the bid moves the budget to Working.
- Final creates a protected Final actual snapshot, for when the job is wrapped and reconciled.
Archiving is separate from status: it hides a budget from the main list and makes it read-only.
Filter your budgets list by status with Filter by status.
