To report costs in a Life Project, the affiliated entities have to complete their own individual financial statement. The beneficiary to whom they are related will have to introduce in his own individual financial statement, in each of the cost category sheets, one line per affiliate with the total amount incurred in EUR.
For the coordinator, the consolidated financial statement template is available here and the guidelines for the coordinating beneficiary is available here (links from the CINEA website).
For the individual beneficiaries, the following financial statement template (link) needs to be used.
For further information, the CINEA provides detailed information about the reporting phase of Life projects on its website.
