Projections

The projections module is the gateway for viewing, adding, editing, and deleting projections. Projections are entered at the CAN level for a particular Allocation Category and for a specific month. For example, a user knows that in May, their institute will spend $2,000 on new servers from a specific vendor. A user can enter this projection in the Projections Module, and be able to plan their budget accordingly. At the account level , the user would enter that in the Month of May, $2,000 would be distributed to a known vendor for "Equipment" (an allocation category). These individual entries are then summed up into monthly totals for the CAN and other higher level accounts.
