pbNOW
is the run-time engine in
PerpetualBudget that creates all worksheets on-demand. The acronym stands for:
- No links means greater portability and ease
of maintenance.
- On demand functionality allows changes at
all stages of the budget cycle.
- Worksheet restore features provides complete
replacement and restoration of the budget documents at any time.
When a worksheet is requested by the system, the pbNOW engine
loads the applicable document outline and proceeds to write the document
line-by-line, querying the database for the line item selections. At the end of
the worksheet write, if data has been requested, a second pass is made. During
this pass, all line items in the worksheet are queried and returned data is
written to the sheet. Read more about

This technique ensures that as changes are made to the
document structure, GL structure or line item assignments, the worksheet will
always reflect the most current information in the system.
