| The maximum grant amount (Annex 2) is the sum of the requested EU contributions of each individual participant of the project (beneficiary or affiliated entity). The maximum grant amount (Annex 2) cannot be changed directly. If there is a change of requested EU contributions of individual participants and the summary is different, then the maximum grant amount (Annex 2) changes. 
When the maximum grant amount (Annex 2) changes, a blocking message will display informing that the "Change of maximum grant amount (Annex 2)" type is not selected and must be selected manually. Usually there is a reshuffle of the budget between participants aiming not to change the maximum grant amount (Annex 2). 
When the maximum grant amount (Annex 2) is changed, the "Change of Annex 2" type will automatically be set. 
The maximum grant amount (Annex2) cannot be higher than the maximum grant amount (award decision). To correct that, the EU Officer needs to follow the steps described below for AT43b. | Data sheet - Section 2 - List of Participants & section 3 - Grant - Maximum grant amount, total estimated eligible costs and contributions and funding rate (Article 5) |

Financial Information | The AT44b clause is used to activate the contingency reserve amount and therefore increase the maximum grant amount (Annex 2), as set out in the Data sheet. If AT44b is activated, the following formula applies: Maximum grant amount (Annex 2) + Contingency reserve - Activation of the contingency reserve < Maximum grant award decision. Then, several rules apply: - the Activated Contingency Reserve amount:
- cannot be higher than the contingency reserve
- cannot be a negative number
- cannot be decreased
- in case of an increase of the Activated Contingency Reserve, then, in the same amendment, there should be an increase of the Maximum grant amount (Annex 2) by, at least, an equal amount.
In the Financial Information screen, the EU Officer only can edit the Activated contingency reserve, by clicking on the pencil icon  Image Added. Then, a pop-up will appear for the EU Officer displaying the: - Activated contingency reserve: the current amount activated, editable (by the EU Officer). This amount can only be increased.
