BBC finance sent it back over National Insurance

A BBC commission wants National Insurance shown as its own line for each department, not folded into one blended fringe percentage. Open the BBC Budget Template from the Splinde Template Gallery and click Start using this Template: it opens Splinde with the BBC structure ready, so the budget starts from standardised account codes and departmental tracking.

The template page describes numerical account codes from 100 to 690, National Insurance calculations, fringe cost transparency, and live offer documents built from the budget. Rates and rules change by year and by agreement, so confirm the current figures against the commissioner's own budget guidance before you submit.

Open the template

Go to the Template Gallery and choose the BBC Budget Template, or open its page directly.
Click Start using this Template. Splinde opens with the template.
Enter your production's numbers department by department.

Splinde's guidance for BBC budgets gives TX Deliverables a Section of its own rather than a line tucked into post-production, so keep that Section as its own chapter.

Set your own contribution rate

When finance wants employer contributions per department, a percentage AddOn on each crew line gives every department its own figure, with the rate held in one named Variable.

Open Insert in the sidebar and choose the AddOns sub-tab.
Drag the Markup card, described as Add a percentage markup value to a Cost Item., onto a crew Cost Item. It arrives with an empty rate, which you fill with the rate your finance team gives you.
To reuse the rate, open the Variables tab, click the +, choose Create new Variable, and create a Variable of type % Percentage holding the rate. Then click the AddOn's rate field (placeholder Number or @), type @ and pick that Variable.
Change the Variable later and every line that points at it moves at once.

Show it to finance per department

Select a table block in an Offer Document, open Settings, and use Disclose AddOn. With Show Inline off, the AddOn becomes a row under a Subtotal row, closed by a Total row. With Show Inline on, it becomes its own column beside each line. The department figure then reads separately from the fees it sits on.

Good to know

An AddOn belongs to one Cost Item, which is what lets a duplicated line carry its contribution with it. The department figure appears through the Section subtotal and in Smart Subtotals, which shows each AddOn's total and its share of the budget Total.
AddOns calculate on the Cost Item's own Amount, days and Fee. To calculate on top of another AddOn, tick that AddOn in the selection menu on the AddOn's sentence line.
To keep your adjusted version, open the menu in the budget header, choose Create Template and click Add to Template Gallery. It then sits under Workspace Templates.
