Confluence Public Wikis will be upgraded to version 9.2 and out of service on Tuesday 18 March 2025, from 11:30 to 13h. Should you need to access your wiki contents urgently during this downtime, Public Acceptance environment remains available with recent data: https://webgate.acceptance.ec.europa.eu/wiki/


Welcome

The illustrations in the provided Wiki pages are for consultation purpose only and may not always reflect the latest implementation. 

This page provides step-by-step instructions on how to create and complete mobility activities in Erasmus+ Key Action 1 granted projects in Beneficiary module. We are using a KA122-ADU call 2024 project as an example. 

A mobility activity contains the details of an individual participant, the travel details to and from the sending and receiving organisations, the start and end dates of the activity, and the budgetary amounts required. Depending on the activity type and participant role in the activity, the participant may be asked to submit a participant report. An overview of the participant report can also be viewed from the mobility activity, as well as related certificates. 

In the Mobility Activities section of your project in Beneficiary module you can fill in basic participant information and other details, save the information as a draft and continue to update the mobility activity either immediately or at a later stage. Where applicable, you can also manage and monitor participant reports. 

As you must provide information regarding the Sending and Receiving organisation for a mobility activity, all organisations participating in your project must be available in the Participating organisations of your project. Depending on the action type of your project, you may also have to add the related activities in your project before adding the mobility activities, as they may have to be linked to an activity

For general instructions on how to create and manage mobility activities in beneficiary projects in Beneficiary module, please see the page Add mobility activities to projects.

For a quick overview of Mobility Activities in Beneficiary module, please view the eLearning video.

It is also possible to complete all mobility activities using the import and export of mobility activities function, depending on the action type of the project. For a quick overview of import and export of mobility activities in Beneficiary module, please view the eLearning video. 

Draft mobility activities must be completed or removed before attempting to submit the beneficiary report, as they will not be considered in the budget summary. 

Mobility activities can only be managed by project contacts with edit rights in the project if the project status is Project ongoing

 

The form content for a mobility activity will adapt based on your input and will provide feedback, such as warning or error messages, if information is missing or if eligibility rules are not observed. 

For specific explanations on each key action, please see the following pages:

Please note that each Beneficiary module release provides improvements related to mobility activity business rules, correction of business rules, adding new rules or remove others. This implies that mobility activities previously completed may not comply to the updated rule(s) enforced or changed after a release. 

This means that a mobility may change the status accordingly, from Completed to Draft. These changes can happen in any project, except when it is locked/read-only. 

  • If the project status is Project Ongoing, mobility activities and the status will be aligned with the rules as per latest release of Beneficiary module. All mobility activities should be checked and, if required, updated by the beneficiary. 
  • If the project status is Submitted, mobility activities are untouched.

A new functionality, Revalidate mobilities in Beneficiary module that allows beneficiaries to check all mobility activities of a project that were last saved before the current release. See the page Revalidate Mobilities in Beneficiary module for details.

For a quick overview of Activities in Beneficiary module, please view the eLearning video.

Steps


1. Create the draft mobility activity

This is the first of the two steps in the process of adding mobility activities to your project.

1.1. Access "Mobility Activities" in the Content menu

In your project, click on Mobility Activities in the Content menu, to display the Mobility activities screen. All the mobility activities that you add will be shown here. Initially, the list is empty. 

Access the Mobility Activities from the content menu

1.2. Click on "Create"

Click on the Create button above the List of mobility activities.

Click on the Create button in the mobility list screen

1.3. Mobility activity screen opens

The Mobility activity  screen opens. The mobility activity status at this point is DRAFT (1), shown as an orange badge at the top right corner of the screen, and the Total mobility activity grant (1), also displayed in the top right corner, is initially 0,00 EUR. This value will update based on the information provided in the form. 

A notification message (2) is displayed, stating that You can save a draft of this mobility activity after filling in the participant's name and selecting the activity type, and informing you of the minimum details to fill before you can save the draft mobility activity.

The Mobility activity ID (3) field is filled in by default. The Mobility activity ID is created automatically when adding a mobility activity in a project. It is a combination of the last digits of the project reference followed by MOB and an incremental number, e.g. 005041-MOB-00001. The Mobility activity ID can be changed, but it must be unique in the project. 

The Mobility activity ID field must be filled in to save the draft mobility activity. 

Use the scrollbar in your browser to access all the information in the mobility activity details.

Mobility activity details screen opens


The Unique Erasmus+ Mobility ID field is available in call year 2024 individual mobility activities (KA121, KA122, KA182) and group mobility activities (KA121, KA122). The field is read-only and contains an automatically generated code. This code is generated after you have selected the Activity type.

The code is a combination of the following:

  • call year
  • activity type 5-letter code
  • incremental 4-digit number
    The activity counter is linked to activity type (not the project), for example: LONGT-0001, SHORT-0001, SHORT-0002, LONGT-002, LONGT-0003, SHORT-0003
  • the last 20 characters of the project code.

Example: 

The 12th long-term mobility of pupils in project 2024-1-FR01-KA121-SCH-000005151 would have the following automatically generated Unique Erasmus+ Mobility ID: 2024-LONGT-0012-KA121-SCH-000005151 ([Call year]- [Activity type 5-letter code]- [Incremental integer with 4 digits]- [Last 20 characters of Project code])

    1.4. Mobility activity screen basic functionalities

    The mobility activity screen consists of several sections. You can expand and collapse each section for easier navigation, by clicking on the section title or the arrow (>) on the right side of each section.

    The available sections depend on the activity type for the mobility activity and action type of your project. By default, all sections are expanded when accessing the screen. 

    The form content will adapt based on your input and will provide feedback, such as warning or error messages, if information is missing or if eligibility rules are not observed. Additional sections may become available as you fill in the form, or sections will be removed if they are no longer applicable. 

    The mandatory fields to create the draft mobility activity are marked with a a red asterisk ( * ) and display Value missing (Draft field). The mandatory fields to complete the mobility activity are marked with a red asterisk ( * ) and display Value missing.

    The Save and Back buttons are located at the bottom right corner of the screen. The Save button will only become active after the minimum required details for the draft mobility activity are filled in. Use the Back button to return to the list of mobility activities. 

    Various sections are available in the form and mandatory fields are marked

    1.5. Select the "Activity type" and provide the "Participant's first and last name" to create the draft mobility activity 

    To create the draft mobility activity, select the Activity type in the Mobility activity section. The options available depend on the Action type of the project. See the page Activity Types in projects for an overview per action type.

    Select the Activity type

    Fill in the Participant's first and last name in the Participant section of the mobility activity details screen. 

    Fill in the Participant's first and last name

    1.6. Click "Save"

    The Save button, displayed at the bottom of the screen, will become active after the Activity type and Participant's first and last name are available in the form. Click on it to save the mobility activity as draft.

    Click on Save

    1.7. Draft mobility activity created

    Once saved, the draft mobility activity is created and you are redirected to the mobility activity details screen, where you can now provide all the required details to complete the mobility activity. See below for the next steps. After saving the draft mobility details, the mobility activity can also be completed at a later stage. 

    If you do not want to complete the mobility activity at this time, click on the Back button at the bottom of the screen to return to the list of mobility activities. 

    Draft mobility activity created

    The recently added mobility activity is displayed in the List of mobility activities, in status Draft, and the basic details are displayed in the list.

    2. View - click on this icon to open the details of the selected item in read-only mode. All fields are greyed out and you will not be able to change any details.
    3. Edit - open the details of the selected item in edit mode. Make the desired changes, then click on the Save button at the bottom of the screen to save the updated information. 
    In addition, you have the option to copy an existing mobility activity using the Duplicate functionality. See Duplicate a Mobility activity for details. See the page List functionality in projects for additional information on the list functionalities, such as Search, Filters and the Bulk Actions.
     

    2. Complete the mobility activity

    Once the first draft is saved, you can fill in the remaining details in order to complete the mobility activity. This is the second step in the process of adding a mobility activity to your project and is done by editing the draft record. It is possible to edit and save the details in several stages, and a completed mobility activity can be updated as many times as necessary, as long as the final report has not been submitted.

    2.1. Click "Edit" in the list of mobility activities

    In the List of mobility activities, click the Edit icon next to the one you want to complete. The mobility activity screen will open in edit mode, and you can fill in the remaining information.

    Click on Edit to update the mobility activity

    2.2. Complete the "Activity" and/or "Mobility Activity" section, as applicable

    The information to provide in this section depends on the action type of your project. You define or view high-level details about the activity type and type of participant, for example if the activity is itinerant (in KA1 youth mobility projects), if it is a blended mobility activity (in Higher education projects, KA121, KA122), or if it is a case of force majeure.

    Here is the Mobility Activity section in our KA122-ADU, call 2024 project. In our example, we selected a Short-term learning mobility of adult learners when creating the draft mobility activity. 

    We now have to provide information such as the participants' key competences that were improved during the mobility activity, and the topics, using the available drop-down lists. We also have to select a Funding source

    A variety of flags are also available in the section, allowing you to mark the mobility activity as a specific participant type (Participant or Accompanying person), the mobility activity as blended and/or as force majeure. The available flags depend on the action type of the project and any input already provided in the form. 

    "Accompanying person" flag

    An Accompanying Person is

    A person who accompanies participants (learners, staff, young people or youth workers) in a mobility activity in order to ensure their safety, provide support and assistance, as well as assist with the participant’s effective learning during the mobility experience. In individual activities, an accompanying person may accompany participants with fewer opportunities or minors and youngsters with little experience outside their own country. In case of group activities in the field of education and training, qualified education staff must accompany the group to facilitate the learning process.

    Source: Erasmus+ Programme Guide Online, Glossary

    In Beneficiary projects, check the Accompanying Person flag to indicate that a participant in an activity (i.e. mobility activity, group activity, participations, events, etc.) is considered an accompanying person. 

    A participant flagged as Accompanying person cannot be a participant with fewer opportunities at the same time. 

    Accompanying Person flag

    "Blended mobility activity" flag

    Blended mobility activity refers to an activity combining a physical mobility activity with a virtual mobility component. 

    In Beneficiary projects, the Blended mobility activity flag can be checked to indicate that a Mobility activity/Group mobility activity is carried out in a blended format (physical activity abroad combined with a virtual component). The availability of the flag depends on the action type of your project.

    If this flag is checked, you may also have to provide details about the virtual components in other sections of the (group) mobility activity screen, depending on the action type of the project. 

    Depending on the action type of your project and the activity type of the mobility activity, the flag may be checked by default and read-only.

    Blended mobility activity flag

    "Force majeure" flag

    Force majeure is:

    Any situation or event that prevents organisations and individuals from fulfilling their obligations in the implementation of the project activities.
    This situation or event has to be unforeseeable, exceptional situation and beyond the parties’ control. The force majeure cannot be due to error or negligence of the organisations or other participants involved in the action, and proves to be inevitable in spite of exercising all due diligence. 

    Source: Erasmus+/European Solidarity Corps programme guides 2025, Glossary

    Force majeure situations can arise anywhere and at any time, and include factors such as sudden disease, accidents, death, earthquakes and other causes.

    In a project, check the Force majeure flag to indicate that a project activity (i.e. mobility activity, group activity, participations, events, transnational project meetings, etc.) is considered as a case of force majeure.

    When you check this flag (tick box), certain fields and grants for the activity may be affected and must be checked and/or updated.

    In addition, you must fill in the additional Force majeure explanations field, describing the facts that prove the activity should be accepted as a case of force majeure.

    Field to provide more information regarding the claimed force majeure

    Take note

    Please note that this additional text field is not displayed if you are not allowed to have access to special categories of personal data. Also, a warning message is shown and you will not be able to complete and save the project activity.

    Error displayed when user has no access rights

    Tip

    Save your changes regularly when completing a mobility activity.

    Fill in the Mobility Activity section

    2.3. Complete the "Participant" section

    In this section, you will view the previously entered personal details of the participant, and you can provide further details, as applicable.

    The section also includes a variety of flags that can indicate the participant's role in the mobility activity, whether the participant requires a linguistic grant or whether it is a participant with fewer opportunities. The flags you check may affect the grants received for the participant, as well as the remaining details to fill in. Here is the Participant section in our KA122-ADU, call 2024 example. 

    "Online language support (OLS)" flag

    In beneficiary projects, when providing information for participants in, for example, individual mobility activities or participations, the OLS flag (checkbox) may be available. Checking this flag will indicate the person is entitled for the Online Language Support.

    The Online Language Support (OLS) is designed to help Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps participants improve their knowledge of the language in which they will work, study or volunteer abroad so that they can make the most out of this experience.

    As the lack of language skills remains one of the main barriers to the participation in European education, training and youth mobility opportunities, OLS makes language support accessible in a flexible and easy way. It also contributes to a specific objective of the Erasmus+ programme, which is to promote language learning and linguistic diversity.

    Source: https://erasmus-plus.ec.europa.eu/resources-and-tools/online-language-support

    OLS flag

    "Linguistic Support" flag

    Where available, you can request a linguistic support grant by checking the Linguistic support flag in the Participant section of the mobility activity screen. The Linguistic support grant is calculated automatically and it cannot be changed manually. 

    The Online language support (OLS) and the Linguistic support flag are mutually exclusive (you can select either one, or the other, but not both at the same time).

    If you request a Linguistic support grant, then you must provide an explanation in the field Justification for linguistic support grant request.

    Linguistic support is not available

    • if the Online language support (OLS) flag is selected,
    • for accompanying persons.

    Depending on the action type of your project, additional rules may apply. See the Erasmus+ programme guide for details. 

    Linguistic Support flag

    A tooltip may be available for the Linguistic support flag, informing you of the specific rules for this cost item. Hover over the (info) to view the details. 

    "Incoming international participant (under special conditions)" flag

    In beneficiary projects, the Incoming international participant (under special conditions) flag available in, i.e. mobility activities, participations, etc. indicates that the mobility activity involves a participant who is fleeing Ukraine as a result of the Russian aggression, and has carried out or is carrying out an activity, i.e. in an eligible participating country.

    This flag may change the standard conditions regarding the sending and receiving countries, as well as certain grant calculations, depending on the action type of your project.

    If this flag is checked, the Participant with fewer opportunities flag will be checked automatically and made read-only.


    This flag is visible only for the following Activity types:

    For specific conditions regarding Ukraine, see the page Project handling specifics related to the Russian aggression on Ukraine.

    Fill in the Participant Section

    2.4. Complete the "Inclusion Support" section, if required

    In this section, you can request Inclusion support for a mobility activity flagged as participant with fewer opportunities

    A Participant with fewer opportunities is 

    People with fewer opportunities means people who, for economic, social, cultural, geographical or health reasons, a migrant background, or for reasons such as disability and educational difficulties or for any other reasons, including those that can give rise to discrimination under article 21 of the Charter of Fundamental rights of the European Union, face obstacles that prevent them from having effective access to opportunities under the programme.

    Source: Erasmus+ Programme Guide Online, Glossary

    In Beneficiary projects, check the Participant with fewer opportunities flag to indicate that a participant in an activity (i.e. mobility activity, group activity, participations, events, etc.) is considered a participant with fewer opportunities. 

    Participant with fewer opportunities flag

    A participant flagged as having fewer opportunities cannot be an accompanying person, a group leader, a trainer/facilitator, or a decision maker, etc. See the Erasmus+ programme guide  for details.

    You must fill in the Fewer Opportunities section of your project for each participant with fewer opportunities.

    2.4.1. Inclusion support for participants and organisations

    Inclusion support for participants: Additional costs directly related to participants with fewer opportunities. In particular these costs aim at covering the extra financial support required for participants with physical, mental or health related conditions to allow their participation in the mobility as well as in preparatory visits and for accompanying persons (including costs related to travel and subsistence, if justified and as long as it is not covered through budget categories "travel support" and "individual support" for these participants). 

    Financing mechanism: real costs. Rule of allocation: the request must be justified by the applicant and approved by the National Agency. 

    In case of accompanying persons, the rates for staff as well as exceptional costs for expensive travel may apply. In exceptional cases, where the accompanying person needs to stay abroad for more than 60 days, extra subsistence costs beyond the 60th day will be supported under the budget heading "inclusion support". 

    Source: Erasmus+ Programme Guide, 2024, page 68


    In the Inclusion support section of the mobility activity details screen in Beneficiary module you can request additional costs directly linked to participants with fewer opportunities and their accompanying persons. For details, consult the Erasmus+ Programme Guide.


    The availability of this type of support depends on the action type and/or call year of your project. Where applicable, the Inclusion support for participants field is displayed if the participant is flagged as Participant with fewer opportunities and initially displays a value of 0 EUR. You can update the field as per your needs. 

    You may be required to fill in the Description and justification for inclusion support for participants if the provided value for Inclusion support for participants is higher than 0 EUR. The availability of this field depends on the action type and/or call year of your project. 

    Example of Inclusion support for participants in a KA131, call 2021, project without the field Description and justification for inclusion support for participants.

    Example of Inclusion support for participants in a KA131, call 2021, project

    Example of Inclusion support for participants in a KA155 project with the field Description and justification for inclusion support for participants available. 

    Example of Inclusion support for participants in a KA155 project

    The Inclusion support for organisations is pre-filled and read-only, except in cases of Force majeure.

    2.4.2. "Inclusion support for organisation not requested" flag

    The Inclusion support for organisation not requested flag in the Inclusion section of the mobility activity details in KA1 youth and KA121 and KA122 projects is available if the participant is flagged as Participant with fewer opportunities. The availability of this flag depends on the action type and call year of your project. 

    Check this flag if this type of support grant is not required for the mobility activity. Once checked, the value in the field Inclusion support for organisations is set to 0 EUR.

    Inclusion support for organisation not requested flag

     

    2.5. The "Participant Report" section

    Initially, the Participant Report section is empty.

    In Beneficiary module, when adding, updating or viewing, for example, mobility activities or participations, the Participant Report section may be available, depending on the action type of the project and the activity type. 

    From here it is possible to monitor an individual participant report and check the relevant information from the moment the initial invitation to complete the report was sent to the participant. It is also possible, under certain conditions, to send reminders to participants to complete the report. After a participant report was submitted, it will be possible to download the report from here. 

    As the invitation e-mail for the participant report is sent only at specific dates in relation to the mobility activity, you will find the Participant Report section initially empty.

    The participant report request email will not be sent out if the mobility activity, participation etc. is in Draft status, meaning not completed, in your project.

    When viewing the participant report information for a specific mobility activity/participant/participation, the following information will be available: 

    • Request ID - system generated unique ID
    • Current status - the status of the report, e.g. Participant report request sent, Participant report submitted. See Participant Report statuses for details.
    • Time - the date and time of the various stages the participant report went through.

    Click on the tabs below to view examples for either Erasmus+ KA1 mobility projects, or ESC51 projects.

    For better view, you can collapse the other sections, by clicking on the section title or the arrow on the right. You may need to use the vertical scroll bar(s) in your browser to access all available information.

    2.6. Complete the "Recognition Certificates" section, if applicable

    In this section, you will specify any certificates or credits that are awarded/recognised by the involved organisations.

    In Beneficiary module, in thRecognition Certificates section in Mobility activities, you can specify up to three certificates to be offered to the participant, from the listed ones. Depending on the selected option, you may have to provide additional explanations. Certificates cannot be offered to participants flagged as Accompanying Person.

    To add a certificate, click on the Add certificate (1) button, then select the Certifying organisation and the Certification type (2) from the available drop-down lists, and click Save (3). Once the certificate is added, you can simply edit it by choosing another organisation and certificate type, and saving the changes. Use the Delete (4) button to remove the certification, if required.

    Example of Recognition Certificates section in mobility activity

    Certifications section example from a Higher Education project

    2.7. Complete the "From-To" section

    In this section, you will specify the travel details, such as the Sending and Receiving organisations, the Distance band and the Main means of transport. You will also specify the Real distance in kilometres between the sending and the receiving cities. This will be used purely for statistical purposes, to determine the carbon footprint of the activity.

    The Sustainable means of transport flag is automatically checked, and  the funded travel duration can be increased from 2 to a maximum 6 days, if the selected Main means of transport is considered sustainable

    Complete the From To section

    2.7.1. Select the "Sending organisation" and the "Receiving organisation"

    Here is an example for the options to select the Sending organisation and the Receiving organisation in the From-To section of a KA122-ADU mobility activity. Use the Select (1) button to choose the respective organisation. Clicking on it opens a pop-up window where you can select the organisation. The example shows a list displaying the Sending organisations available in your project. If an organisation you want to select is not available, check the Participating organisations section in your project and add it, if possible.

    Click on the organisation you want to choose (2). It will be highlighted in the list. Click on the Select (3) button.

    Example of selecting Sending organisation in KA121

    The organisation information in the From-To section is updated with the details of the selected organisation (4)

    Organisation information updated in the form

    2.7.2. Distance travelled and distance band

    The Distance band field displays intervals, in km, used for the calculation of the travel grant. The options available for selection from the drop-down are from zero up to 8 000 km or more

    The Real distance in kilometres is the actual distance traveled between the participant's place of origin and the venue of the activity (in a straight line, determined using the Erasmus+ Distance Calculator) (field applicable only to call years between 2021 to 2023).

    Take note

    If the distance band, selected from the list, and the manually entered actual distance (in kilometres) do not match, the error 'Real distance is out of range' will be shown.

    Air distance and distance band (until 2023)

    Starting with call year 2024, for all KA1 projects, the Distance band will be automatically updated, based on the actual distance manually entered in the field, which is now labelled Air distance (according to distance calculator)

    A link to the official Erasmus+ Distance Calculator to determine the distance between two travel points is also available. 

    Air distance and distance band (2024 onwards)

    Take note

    Please note that, with the implementation of the air distance field, the mobility activities in the affected ongoing KA1 call 2024 project will automatically be revalidated. For information on revalidation, see the page Revalidate Mobilities in Beneficiary module.


    2.7.3. Main means of transport and "Sustainable means of transport (green travel)" flag

    From the Main means of transport drop-down, select the transportation mainly used during the mobility activity. The list proposes both sustainable (non- or less polluting), and non-sustainable modes of transport (e.g., plane).

    Example of non-sustainable means of transport

    When your selection is considered as sustainable, then the Sustainable means of transport (green travel) flag is automatically checked and the funded travel duration can be increased from a maximum of 2 to a maximum 6 days.

    Sustainable means of transport (green travel) is defined as the travel that uses low-emissions means of transport for the main part of the travel, such as bike, bus, train, car-pooling, or other sustainable transportation.
    Source: Erasmus+ Programme Guide, Glossary

    Example of sustainable means of transport

    The flag is also automatically checked when you select Other sustainable transportation from the list. Plus, starting from call year 2024, the additional field Please describe the mode of transport used becomes available and must be filled in (maximum 300 characters).

    Example of other sustainable transportation and mandatory description field

    2.7.4. "Travel Grant" and "Exceptional Costs"

    In our example, the subsections Travel Grant and Exceptional Costs are available in the From-To section and must be filled.

    Under the Travel grant section in the mobility activity details, you need to indicate the Funded travel days, where available. As a general rule, you can indicate up to 2 travel days if using a non-sustainable means of transport, and up to 6 travel days if using a sustainable means of transport

    The amount for Travel grant or Travel support is calculated automatically, based on the selected activity typedistance band and main means of transport. This amount cannot be manually changed, except in cases of Force majeure.


    You can also Request exceptional cost for expensive travel, using the available flag. 

    If the standard travel grant does not cover at least 70% of the eligible travel cost of the participant, you are entitled to request a grant to cover Exceptional costs for expensive travel instead of the standard travel grant.
