How to complete your financial statement

Introduction

The Financial Statement is automatically generated using the data provided in the Mobility Declarations (with the status "Submitted") from Continuous Reporting and/or from the Technical Part. For this reason, most fields are read-only (please see the below).

A financial statement can only be "locked for review" or "signed and submitted", if the Financial Statement has been saved beforehand. Only then the latest data will be locked for review or signed. Therefore, each time the mobility declarations have been updated, the financial statement has to be also updated and saved. 

The financial statement contains three fields

1.Financial information from contact

The information is coming from the signed grant, so this field is read-only. 

2. Financial statements

The field contains a Calculate Costs button to update the calculations according to the data contained in the latest submitted mobility declarations during Continuous Reporting.

Since only the latest data will be locked for review or signed, you can update the data only when the Financial Statement is still in draft and before locking it for review. If the mobility declaration data have been modified in the Technical Part/ Continuous Part, use the Calculate Costs button to update the calculations in the Financial Statement. 

The button is available only to the users that have the edit rights (Primary Coordinator Contact/Coordinator Contact/Participant Contact) and is active only if there are changes in the latest submitted mobility declarations during Continuous Reporting.

3. Financial statement for the selected period

The detailed costs of the selected financial statement are visible here and all fields are read-only, except the part about the operating grants at the bottom of the screen.
