Comments 
The Budget Module can be used as a stand-alone module for budget management without any record of grants/projects.

The Geobase provides a mapping of Service Providers to their current Health and Hospital Service, State Electorate, Federal Electorate, Statistical Local Area, and Local Government Area.

Common uses are management of historical, current and future: budgets, scheduled grant payments and paid grant payments, project progress payments, and Standing Offer Arrangements.
