Budget screen details

Basics

The budget screen details the project costs, broken down by activity type and/or cost type.

Our example shows the partial budget screen for a project developed under KA152-YOU - Mobility of young people, call 2022.

Editable fields

All grant amounts are read-only, therefore cannot be changed manually. They are calculated automatically based on the information you have provided either in this screen (where applicable) or in other sections of the project. If you wish to update the budget amount for a specific item, you must adjust the details in the relevant section (such as Mobility activities or Physical Events). Only complete mobility activities will be reflected in the budget calculations.

Depending on the Key Action and/or call year of your project, certain fields available in the budget screen may be editable and can be filled in or updated, for example the Exceptional Costs - Guarantee, for which you can enter the amount in the dedicated field, if applicable, or the Number of participants in the project, as in the below example.

Any changes you make will automatically be saved. 

You may find editable fields in the Budget overview on top of the budget screen as well as in the Activity or Cost type specific sections.

The Export PDF button can be used, where active, to download the budget as a PDF file.

Totals per project

The first part of the screen includes the total amounts calculated at project level regarding the participants and various budget items, such as the completed mobility activities in your project.

For each budget item, you will be able to view the Awarded and Reported Budget, as well as the share of the awarded grant used so far, under %Reported/Awarded. 

1. Total project is calculated automatically as the sum of grant items and reported costs.

   2. Inclusion support for organisations
   3. Exceptional costs for financial guarantee - If the National Agency has asked you to provide a financial guarantee, insert the real costs incurred related to the guarantee, in the dedicated field that will de displayed in such case.

If no completed mobility activities are available in your project, the reported budget values will display 0 EUR.
