Recording expenditure
Project expenditure is recorded as spend entries on the Financials page. Each spend entry has a category:
- Resources — CAPEX — capital expenditure on contracted resources, third-party resources, external consultancy or other CAPEX resources.
- Resources — OPEX — operational expenditure on seconded BAU resources.
- Suppliers — supplier expenditure with a free-text supplier name.
Adding a spend entry
- Open a project → Financials.
- Select Add Spend Entry.
- Choose the category (CAPEX, OPEX or Suppliers).
- For resource entries, select the resource type.
- For supplier entries, enter the supplier name.
- Enter the amount, description and date.
- For resource entries, set the week commencing (the Monday starting the reporting week).
- Save.
Spend entries are recorded against the project's currency. Amounts must be non-negative.
