Non-Personnel Costs
This section of the budget is where you enter any expenses that are not categorized as personnel salaries. These cost categories were derived from the Research & Related Budget forms utilized in system to system submissions. This means that the cost element/object code selected in the list that appears when Other Direct category is selected will appear in that (other direct costs) section of the budget forms. The defined budget categories in this non-personnel section are: Equipment, Travel, Participant Costs, and Other Direct. When needed, the default budget category can be overridden by changing the default on the Details window after an expense has been added to the budget. Changing the category, for example, from Other Direct to Equipment, will force that line item to appear in the equipment section of the submitted forms for this proposal while retaining the cost object for internal review purposes.
*Note: in the preliminary 6.0 release, the category Proposal Hierarchy Sub-Projects appear in the list of categories. This item should not be selected and added manually by the user; this category is used by the system. This category will be removed from selection in a later release.
