Explanation and illustration

The Budget tab displays a break-down of the grant awarded for implementing the project.

In the budget screen an overview of the project costs is displayed and covers different budget items such as:

  1. the first column - Approved Budget (by National Agency) - the budget awarded in the grant agreement and transferred to Mobility Tool+ from the National Agency Management System.
  2. the second column - Current Budget (in Mobility Tool+) - the budget declared to date in Mobility Tool+.
  3. the third column - % Current/Approved budget - reflects the percentage difference between the Approved Budget (by National Agency) and the Current Budget (in Mobility Tool).
  4. the Total Project - the total awarded and current budget, calculated as the sum of the other budget items.
  5. the Total complementary activity - the total recorded in the Complementary activities tab (only applicable for ESC11 and ESC21).
  6. the budget per Activity Type.

For ESC11 and ESC21 there are activities complementary to the project's normal participant activity: (VOL-COMP) and (TRAIN-JOBL-COMP). These complementary activities can be seminars, conferences, etc.


Take note

Even though you may be able to submit amounts greater than the amount approved by the National Agency, the final amount approved will never be higher than the last approved amount by the National Agency in the Grant Agreement or in the last amendment, if applicable.
