Project Estimated Costs

When setting up a grant, an important step is determining what everything will cost. The Project Estimated Costs tool is where you configure the project line items, and their costs, that will add up to what should be the final total project costs. This is important information to detail so that the Eligibility Approver has as much information as possible to support their decision.

To get started, click the Add icon at the top of the Project Estimated Costs table. 

Enter a project name and description at the top. Just below that, list the first item, description, cost code (if you have one) and estimated cost. Click the Add icon to record the item.

Note: The Item dropdown comes with pre-set options. If you want additional options to appear here, please submit feedback.

Each added expense is recorded in the table below, and the fields above stand ready for the next item.

Add all items required for the project, with their estimated costs, and click Save when finished.

The project, and the sum of its estimated costs, are now listed in the Project Estimated Costs table.

If needed, use the same steps, starting with the Add icon at the top of the table, to add more projects and their expenses. The grant total of all projects appears at the bottom of the table. Double-clicking a project opens it for editing, and you can delete a selected project by clicking the Delete icon at the top of the table.
