-==== 3. Setup eLMIS ====
+==== 3. Setup the customer budgets in mSupply ====
+The interface assigns the incoming orders (turned into customer invoices in mSupply - see below) to the correct annual budget period for customers. The budget year is assumed to start on 1st July. So, create a budget period starting on the 1st July in the current budget year and assign that budget period to all the customers you will be importing orders for via this interface. See the [[issuing_goods:customer_budgets|]] page for details on doing that.
+==== 4. Setup eLMIS ====
   - Set eLMIS to export its order files to the //main folder///Order/Incoming folder when orders are created.
   - Set eLMIS to look for incoming shipment files in the //main folder///Shipment/Incoming folder on a regular basis.
