The report updates when a date, period preset, or filter changes.

Grant budget and actuals with dated budget lines and signed expenses

An approved version must exist by the report end. The report selects the latest eligible approved version. Use Version on the report to inspect another eligible approved version, or open the award’s Budget page.

The CSV is a two-column list of field paths and values, including nested report data. It does not use the screen's table layout.

Understand the comparison

Actuals use signed posted expense activity with the selected grant coding. Reversals reduce actuals; closing entries and their inverses are excluded. Each budget line matches its expense account, fund, optional program, and dates.

An overlapping date bucket keeps its entire budget amount. Actuals use only the intersection of the report dates and bucket dates. QixCount does not prorate the budget by days. Variance is unavailable when a bucket is partial, including the total variance when any selected bucket is partial.

Unbudgeted actuals identify signed grant expenses outside the selected buckets or coding combinations. They are included in the all-expense actual total. Commitments are not included. Additional fund, program, and grant-dimension filters are unavailable on this award-based report.

Next, create or amend a grant budget.
