The NICHE financial format that is used for all project budgeting and financial reporting has been simplified. The methodology of reflecting both the last approved budget and statement of expenditures and the current budget and statement of expenditures next to each other is no longer in use.
The financial format now only reflects the budget and statement of expenditures been submitted with the progress report. What remains is a clear and concise instrument for the financial reporting and monitoring. The project budget information per cost category is used to aggregate all NICHE project funds per cost category.
