1. You can only make changes in particular cells. The rest of the worksheet is locked for any changes. The columns in which you can make changes are: Item of expenditure, cost in local currency and budget notes. The cells in these colums are text wrapped -so, do not be frugal with details.

2. Provide detailed budget notes to the items on which the expenditure is proposed to be incurred. The idea is to provide details of how you calculated the total cost on that line item. For example, in the Personnel worksheet if item of expenditure is Researcher then provide the cost/day (or month) of the Researcher and for how many days (or month) will the Researcher be hired.
