Prior YTD is May-25 to Sep-25, mapped as today. vs prior is this year less last year: positive is favourable.

Partner cross-sales aren't tagged in Xero: their revenue sits in the ordinary revenue accounts, so their own lines show no actuals. Orbit Logistics shows actuals once a Xero account is mapped to it on Data & mapping. The budget keeps Orbit Logistics's direct costs inside Direct costs; forecasts put them on their own line.

Still needed is the full-year budget less the actual to date; needed a month spreads it evenly over the months left. A run rate or forecast in green reaches it, in red falls short. The run rate is the average of the last 3 months to Sep-26. A negative figure needed means the budget is already beaten or, for EBITDA, a loss it can still afford. The latest forecast is the best guess after the closed months, as on Forecast & scenarios.
