Budgets and grants
Shared workspace budgets, member caps, the ledger and the instance default.
Two budgets matter for most calls:
- Shared budget: the workspace's pool. Every member's calls count against it. Set it in Admin → Workspaces → a workspace.
- Member cap: one person's limit inside a workspace. Owners and admins set it in Members, by opening a member.
In both places:
- Limit sets the base limit for a day, week, month or total. Leave it empty to remove it.
- Add grant adds money to the current period only, with a reason. A negative amount takes it back.
The limit for a period is the base limit plus that period's grants. Every limit change and grant is a row in the ledger, shown under the budget.
Workspace admins can't change an owner's cap or their own. Only owners and the Simpang admin can.
Admin → Instance sets the default monthly shared budget for workspaces made by an invite, and the time zone every period starts in.
