Glossary entry (derived from question below)
Spanish term or phrase:
existan las disponibilidades correspondientes
English translation:
enough funding has been allocated (in the budget)
Spanish term
existan las disponibilidades correspondientes
El texto a continuación es parte del mismo manual de procedimientos financieros en el que he estado trabajando en los últimos días.
Control Previo al Compromiso
El empleado de la Organización designado para decidir sobre la realización de un gasto y aquellos que conceden la autorización respectiva, verificarán previamente que:
1. La transacción corresponda al giro o actividad de la Organización y conforme el presupuesto anual, planes y programas;
2. El procedimiento propuesto para su ejecución sea el apropiado;
3. La Organización está facultada para llevarla a cabo y no existan impedimentos legales sobre la misma;
4. En el presupuesto **existan las disponibilidades correspondientes** previamente establecidas.
Considerando que se trata de presupuesto, asumo que con "disponibilidades" se refieren fondos disponibles, o no?
Proposed translations

(there be) the corresponding assigned/earmarked funds
there are corresponding enabling provisions (funds availability etc.)
I am not re-writing the Author here, because my answer is the standard idiomatic expression in English.
I have emphasized that "provisions" goes beyond funds, but may include various prescriptions, such as a limit on the aggregate amount, the requirement that a certain Officer provide written approval for amounts over a certain number of pesos, etc.etc.

Availability is obtainable and accessible.
El empleado de la organización designado para decidir sobre la realización de un gasto y aquellos que coinciden la autorización respectiva, verificarán previamente que: en el presupuesto 'existan las disponibilidades correspondientes' establecidas.
The organization's employee assigned to make a decision on expenses in place, and those which are granted by the respective authority, will check (verify) in advance that: in the budget, corresponding availabilities are previously established.
Discussion
But here unless this is a clear reference to a balance sheet, I think you're right and it just means "fondos disponibles" - you could just say something like "enough funding has been allocated in the budget", or go with Robert's suggestion.
