Budget Bucket

A Budget Bucket is a set of Budget Bucket Lines. Each line defines an amount for a currency and an expenditure type (OPEX or CAPEX).

The total amount of a Budget Bucket (sum of lines' amount) would be greater or equal than to sum of Initiatives/Releases' budget lines associated to it.
