In this section, you can define the budgeted amounts and descriptions (if any) for the relevant periods under the Budget and Description columns, respectively.

You cannot edit the actual amounts displayed, but you can copy these amounts to the Budget column as the new budgeted amounts by clicking the Copy actuals button.
