How to complete your financial statement

The financial statement elaborated for JUST-AG, REC-AGISFB-AG, ISFP-AG, JUST-DRUGS-AG, AMIF-AG contains the same fields as the general one and it should be treated similarly (more information on how to complete a general financial statement can be found here.). These main fields of the financial statement are the following: 

1. Financial information from contract

"No contribution requested" is information coming from the signed grant, so this field is read-only. 

2. Financial Certificate

The Certificate on the Financial Statement (CFS) must be provided as follows:

  •  for JUST-AG and REC-AG if: 
    • the beneficiary requests an EU contribution of EUR 325 000 or more as reimbursement of actual costs and
    • the maximum EU contribution indicated for that beneficiary/affiliated entity in the estimated budget (Annex 2) as reimbursement of actual costs is EUR 750 000 or more.
  • for JUST-DRUGS-AG, ISFB-AG, ISFP- AG, AMIF-AG: for each beneficiary and (if applicable) each affiliated entity, if it requests an EU contribution of EUR 100 000 or more as reimbursement of actual costs.

3. Financial Statement

If a CFS needs to be provided, a warning is displayed in the application and a validation error appears if the user saves the data without providing the requested CFS.

All financial statements (each period has one financial statement) and adjustments (adjustment from a previous period for which you haven't declared all costs yet and the requested contribution) for the current periodic report are displayed here. Note: the button "add adjustment" is only available from period 2 (to adjust the costs requested for period 1).

4. Financial statement for the selected period

The detailed costs of the selected financial statement are visible here. (warning) Note that the estimated budget for the action already supplied in annex 2 of the Grant Agreement doesn't appear here. You will have to introduce the actually incurred costs here.
