If the reservation is in workflow, recall the workflow status to Draft status, make any changes you want to the reservation, and then resubmit the amended reservation to workflow.

When the workflow is completed and the reservation status is set to Approved, the Budget reservation button, in the Post group on the Action Pane, becomes available and you can post the general budget reservation.
