Looking for best way to log a data point within Asana so I can report on it

Hey @Allison_Willis welcome to the Asana Community Forum :wave:

I would add a custom field for allocated budget and consumed budget. Then everybody working on a task can update that field so you will have an overview.
I’d even have 2 fields for the $ (allocated and consumed) and one for the hours (allocated and consumed).

List view helps to allow you have an overview and calculate the sum easily + in the dashboard you can set up various graphs to monitor things too.

Here are some helpful links: (allocated and consumed)

Does that help?
