​Who this is for: Project managers, principals, finance team


Dashboard Explained

Budget vs charge by project, split into Total, Internal, External, and Expenses categories, plus a monthly revenue-vs-cost trend. Projects Budgets shows how much of each project's budget has been consumed, and by which cost category.
​

How to use it

Use Projects Budgets to check budget consumption at a glance across the portfolio, split by cost category. A project showing high vs Charge % on Expenses but not on Internal or External charge may indicate expense budget pressure specifically. Drill into a project from the table to see the same breakdown at Phase/Stage level in Project Budget Detail.
