Send a Copy

To keep your Budgets secure when sending to other Movie Magic Budgeting users the system uses a peer-to-peer system as a replacement to emailing Budget files.

Note: Sending a Copy will send a copy of the Budget with the data at the moment it was sent. The recipient will not receive updates to that Budget unless you send another copy to them.

Using Send a Copy

To send a copy of the active Budget tab, click the Send button in the top navigation bar.

Sending Updates

Once changes have been made to your Budget you can re-open the Send a Copy window and see that the SEND UPDATE button will be available for any previous recipients. Click this to send the recipient a new copy of the Budget with the current data.

This does not overwrite the previous budget copy they were sent. It will be received as a brand new copy.
