Changes to the budget are not considered an amendment as long as they do not imply a substantive change to the description of the Action. Addition of amounts for subcontracts require an amendment or simplified approval (approval given with the final periodic report). This means that Partners have full flexibility to make transfers between different budget headings, co-Partners and Implementing Partners, including creating and deleting budget lines. Such changes will be presented, at the latest, when submitting the Final Periodic Report.

When the Partner needs to modify the contact details of a specific Action, it can use the button “Update contact details” available on the Action’s page. A form, allowing to delete outdated contacts, to include new contacts and to modify previously inserted details, will be displayed. Once the form is submitted, APPEL will create a new Non-Essential Modification Request document. Changes in the contact person details take effect immediately for any subsequent e-mail notifications.
