Overview
Managers → Budget (/managers/3) is the manager-scoped view of learning budget — focused on
approvals and team-level credit tracking. It’s a subset of the full admin Budget panel; you see what
your direct reports do, and you act on requests that route to you.
What you can do here
What you DON’T see (admin-only): Credit Policies, Payments, Automations.
Approving a request
- Open Managers → Budget → Requests (or click the request notification you received).
- Review: requested content, cost, requester, manager justification (if provided).
- Pick an action:
- Approve — request moves to admin for fulfillment (voucher, reimbursement, or direct purchase).
- Deny — request is closed; the requester sees the reason if you add one.
- Request more info — send the request back to the user with a comment.
Tracking team spend
The Users Credits sub-tab shows how each direct report is using their allocated budget. Use it to:- See who’s actively using their credits and who isn’t.
- Spot patterns (e.g. one person spending heavily on a single provider).
- Decide whether to nudge under-utilizers or recommend resources.
Manager vs. admin budget
If you need policy or payment-level controls, those live in the admin Budget panel — see
Budget & Credits (Admin).
