Create funding source projects

Why use this feature

In Axiom Capital Planning, you can now create projects designated as funding sources. The dollar value used for the source project can fund other projects. For example, you may designate a project as a contingency fund to fund other projects, which allows you to save time by easily track the contingency dollars available.
