Access to OLS

The "Provide access to OLS" functionality was removed from the Beneficiary module. The relevant wiki pages will be updated accordingly.


 

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

This page explains how to add, modify and delete mobility activities in KA1 youth projects. We are using a KA152 call 2022 project as an example. 

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 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

You must add activities in the Activities section first, in order to be able to associate the mobility activity to the relevant activity. See Activities in KA1 Youth mobility projects for details. 


Important

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

For compliance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation, please do not include any sensitive information about the participant's personal situation related to special needs, racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade-union membership, health or sexuality.

The Mobility activity ID can be changed, but it must be unique in the project.

The available flags depend on the Activity Type. The Participant flag is checked by default, but it can be changed to a different value such as Accompanying person, if applicable.

Here is an example of the Mobility Activity section in a KA152, call 2022, project for Activity type Youth exchanges - Member States and associated countries. In this case, the field Participant Group is additionally available and must be completed.

Fill in the Mobility Activity section

5.1. "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

5.2. "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 the mobility activity is carried out in a blended format (physical activity abroad combined with a virtual component). If this flag is checked, you may also have provide details about the virtual components in other sections of the mobility activity screen, depending on the action type of the project.

Blended mobility activity flag

5.3. "Force majeure" flag

Force majeure is:

An unforeseeable exceptional situation or event beyond the participant's control and not attributable to error or negligence on their part.

Source: Erasmus+/European Solidarity Corps programme guides 2024, 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.

Take note

The current implementation does not include any specific conditions related to Covid-19 as a force majeure situation.

Force majeure flag

In addition, if the force majeure flag is set,  certain duration and grant fields are affected as follows: 

  • Duration Calculated (days): The business rule checking the minimum and maximum duration will no longer apply in case of Force Majeure.
  • Duration of the Mobility activity Period (days): The business rule checking the minimum duration will no longer apply in case of Force Majeure.
  • Travel Support Grant: The field becomes editable. If any values were already present they are preserved.
  • Individual Support: The field(s) becomes editable. If any values were already present they are preserved.
  • Organisational Support: The field becomes editable. If any values were already present they are preserved.
  • Inclusion support for organisation: The field becomes editable. If any values were already present they are preserved.
  • Participant report: Participant reports are not required for mobilities flagged as force majeure and having a duration of 1 day (i.e. cancelled mobility activities, for which the start and end date are the same). 

6. Fill in the "Participant" section

The information required in the Participant section varies per action and activity type. Some details are already filled in as they were provided in the first step of creating the mobility activity.

The Participant ID field is available in mobility activities in Beneficiary module, allowing you to provide a unique alphanumeric participant identification. The Participant ID field is not mandatory. 

If a Participant ID is provided, it must be unique for the participant in the project. 

Participant ID field

For compliance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation, please do not include any sensitive information about the participant's personal situation related to special needs, racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade-union membership, health or sexuality.

Participant section in a KA152 call 2022 project

6.1. Participant Flags

The  Participant section includes a variety of flags that can indicate the participant's role in the mobility activity.

The available flags vary, depending on the action type and activity type. They may affect other fields in the participant and budget sections, as well as require additional data to be provided at project level.

6.1.1. "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.

OLS flag

 

This flag is not available for participants involved in preparatory visits nor for participants flagged as Group Leader, Accompanying Person, Trainer/Facilitator or Decision Maker. 

6.1.2. "Incoming international participant (under special conditions)" flag

In beneficiary projects, the Incoming international participant (under special conditions) flag available in, i.e. mobility activities, physical events, participations, etc. indicates that the mobility activity involves a participant that has left Ukraine due to the war 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.

Information

The flag is not applicable for participants of type Accompanying Person.

7. Complete the "Inclusion Support" section, if applicable

7.1. "Participant with fewer opportunities" flag

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, group leader, trainer/facilitator or a decision maker, etc. For each participant with fewer opportunities you must fill in the  Fewer Opportunities section of your project.

7.2. Inclusion support for participants

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.

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

The Inclusion support for organisation not requested flag in the Inclusion section of the mobility activity details 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


8. "Participant survey" section (conditionally available)

Information

In KA1 Youth projects the Participant survey section is not available for activity type Preparatory visits and for participants flagged as Accompanying Person, Trainer/Facilitator or Decision Maker.

For activity types Youth exchanges - Member States and associated countries and Youth exchanges - third countries not associated the Participant survey section is available only for participants flagged as a Group Leader.

Participants in Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps projects may be asked to provide feedback on their experience by filling in a Participant report

Automatic e-mails are sent to participants with an invitation to fill in and submit this report in EU Survey, to share their feedback on the experience as a participant in a Mobility activity for Erasmus+ or European Solidarity Corps programmes.

The participant receives an e-mail with a dedicated link to the individual participant report which needs to be done online, in EU Survey, and is available in various languages. The link received by the participant will not expire. 

The participant can save the report and submit it. After submission, the participant may download a PDF version of their feedback, but they cannot edit the form again.

In Beneficiary module, when adding, updating or viewing, for example, mobility activities or participations, the Participant Report section may be available.

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 to send reminders to participants to complete the report. 

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 will not be sent out if the mobility activity is in Draft status, meaning not completed, in your project.

Example of Participant Report section where the initial email notification was sent

See the page Manage participant reports in projects for detailed information. 

Initially, upon creation of a mobility activity, no information is available in this section.


9. Add "Recognition Certificates", if needed

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.

10. Fill in the "From-To" section

The details to provide in this section vary, depending on whether the selected activity is itinerant or not and the activity type of the linked activity. The Individual support budget item is also affected by the itinerant nature of the activity. 

10.1. Non-Itinerant activity

Select the  Sending (1) and Receiving Organisation (2)  from the respective drop-down lists . The Sending Country , Sending City, Receiving Country and Receiving City are automatically filled in based on your selection, but they can be changed. 

Note

If the organisation you want to select as sending or receiving organisation is not available for selection, it must be added to the project from the Organisations section. 

You also must select a Distance band and Main means of transport (3), using the available drop-down list. The selected Distance band will automatically update the budget values with the correct travel grant for the activity type and distance band in the Budget section. 

Type the Real Distance in KM (3) between the sending and the receiving cities. The Real Distance in KM provided must be within the selected Distance band. This information will be used purely for statistical purposes to determine the carbon footprint of the activity. If the Main means of transport is considered sustainable, the Sustainable means of transport flag will be set. 

The field Duration (in days) (4) is prefilled with the calculated duration as per start and end date provided upon creation of the draft mobility activity and can be updated, if required. The field Individual support (5) is calculated and updated automatically as per the duration provided. It is read-only, with the exception in the case of Force majeure. 

Form To section in a non itinerant activity

In, for example, activities or mobility activities, the Distance Band indicates the distance between the place of origin and the venue of the activity the participant(s) has to travel. Main Means of Transport refers to the primary mode of transportation used by participants to travel to and from their host country. The Real distance in kilometres is the real distance between the place of origin and the venue of the activity. 

When completing, for example, a mobility activity, the Distance band (1) and Main means of Transport (2) must be selected from the available drop-down lists. In the field Real distance in kilometers (3) the real distance must be filled and the value provided must be within the range selected for the Distance band. 

The available distance bands to select depend on the key action of the project. 

Distance band and Main means of transport

A link to the official Erasmus+ Distance Calculator to calculate the distance is also available. 

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 bus, train or car-pooling.
Source: Erasmus+ Programme Guide, Glossary

Selecting a means of transport considered sustainable when updating mobility activities, events, participations or similar in your project, results in the Sustainable Means of Transport flag being automatically checked and the funded travel duration can be increased from maximum 2 to maximum 6 days.

10.2. Itinerant activity

If you had flagged the main activity as being itinerant, you have to fill in the travel details for each itinerary in the mobility activity, i.e. the distance between the place of departure and the destination. In this case, you can add up to 10 organisations involved in the mobility activity, therefore up to 9 receiving organisations and 9 itineraries.

  1. For the first itinerary, select the Sending Organisation and the first Receiving Organisation, using the available drop-down list lists. 
  2. Click on the Add itinerary button to add subsequent itineraries, as needed.
  3. For each of the subsequent itineraries, you must select the following Receiving Organisation, one per itinerary. The receiving country and city are automatically filled in. The Sending Organisation stays the same for each of the subsequent itineraries added.
  4. You must provide the Duration (in days) for each itinerary added. 
    • The field Individual support is calculated and updated automatically as per the duration provided for each itinerary. It is read-only, with the exception in the case of Force majeure.

Form To section in an itinerant activity

To remove an added itinerary, click on the blue Delete (bin) icon available for each itinerary. If there is only one itinerary added, the Delete icon will be inactive. 

Click on the blue delete (bin) button to remove an itinerary

You also must select a Distance band and Main means of transport , using the available drop-down list. The Distance band you select must cover the entire distance between the sending city and the final receiving city. Calculate and type the Real Distance in KM by adding up the real distance for each itinerary.  For each itinerary, the receiving city of the previous itinerary is considered the point of departure for calculating the real distance  toward the next receiving organisation/city . The rules for Main means of transport and  Sustainable Means of Transport  remain the same as for non-itinerant activities.

The duration in Funded travel Days is considered for the entire activity travel, not per itinerary.

The selected Distance band will automatically update the budget values with the correct travel grant for the activity type and distance band in the Budget section. 

Provide the distance band and related information

Where available and if applicable for the mobility activity, you can provide Comments on different location than sending/receiving organisations

Once all sections have been updated and all mandatory fields are filled in, the mobility activity status changes from Draft to Complete. It is still possible to edit the mobility activity details at any stage, as long as the beneficiary report has not been submitted.

Information

Before submitting the Beneficiary report , you will need to re-check all mobility activities, to make sure they still comply with all validation rules. Where available, the Revalidation of mobility activities functionality can be used for this purpose.

The mobility activity now displays in status Complete in the List of mobility activities .

Once items are added to the list, the following icons become available under the Actions column:

  1. Delete - click on this icon in line with the item you wish to delete, and follow the onscreen instructions.
  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. 

See the page List functionality in projects for additional information on the list functionalities, such as Search, Filters and the Bulk Actions.

In addition, you have the option to copy an existing mobility activity using the Duplicate (4) functionality. See Duplicate a Mobility activity for details.
