It is not easy to distinguish as a user which datasets are budgetary and which are spending. People may choose to name their datasets appropriately, but AFAIK, there is no way at present to mandate this.

We need to make clear to users (those visiting the site, not the ones who loaded the data) that not all the datasets are the same (I personally would love to see categories on the dataset listing page e.g. budget, spending, grants, other and adding the categories to the metadata seems to be a logical way to auto-generate this list).
