Projections

Projections Tab

This tab shows all projections, line by line, across all of the faculty member's funds. It includes a link to the APEX input form for projections across all funds managed by a PI. 

If you're an RA, use this page to input projections.

If you're a PI, use this page to review detailed projections. If you want to communicate changes or questions to your RA about a specific projection, you may reference the ID# found on this page. If you're looking for a breakdown of personnel by percent distribution, you can find that here by selecting the "Personnel by % Distribution" view.

In the Projections Tab, you can:

  • Create projections via the input form directly linked to PI Portfolio, for all funds, by faculty member as delegated by their assigned CF2.
  • Input projections for Anticipated Funding, Non-Compensation expenses and Compensation expenses, with the help of HCM data within the compensation input screen.
  • Get automatically calculated benefit costs (including CBR and GAEL) when users input salary expenses.
  • Get automatically calculated overhead (indirect costs) based on projections.
  • View personnel by dollar amount or by percent distribution.
  • Save projections each month to be downloaded at a later date.
  • Download past projections into an Excel file, which will be helpful for performing variance analysis against Actuals.
