Transactions¶
The transactions tab is designed as a ledger of money in and money out of a project.
A transaction is modelled with a sending organisation and a receiving organisation, a date and an amount. These fields are required.
The value of a transaction (Amount) must be positive.
A transaction can be linked to the project as a whole (the default) or to a:
Outcome payment (using the Outcome Metric ID column to link to the relevant row on the Outcome Metrics tab);
Investment (using the Investment ID column to link to the relevant row on the Investment tab); or,
Grant (using the Grant ID column to link to the relevant row on the Grants tab).
Only one of these IDs should appear per row, i.e. transactions should be disaggregated where possible. This is particularly important if the data is to be used in further analysis or visualisations.
The transaction type field is used to identify the purpose of the transaction.
The formatting rules on dates and currency values should be followed.
This is a list. One project can have multiple items of data. One item of data is defined as:
Name
Definition
Type
Investment Id - (Value)
A within-project original, flexible identifier to be referenced in another sheet.
Text
Outcome Metric Id - (Value)
A within-project original, flexible identifier to be referenced in another sheet.
Text
Grant Id - (Value)
Text
Date - (Value)
Date when the transaction occurred.
Enter a date in format YYYY, YYYY-MM or YYYY-MM-DD
Sending Organisation ID - (Value)
INDIGO ID of the organisation that makes the transaction.

Technical Assistance¶
Technical Assistance is modelled as a period of engagement between a funding organisation and a recipient organisation with a defined start and end date.
This period of engagement can be broken down on the Technical Assistance Details tab into a series of component activities (as well as high-level information that covers the whole engagement where appropriate).
An activity is linked to an engagement by using the relevant id from the Technical Assistance tab. Multiple activities can be linked to a single engagement.
Data should not be provided if no technical assistance from a given category has been given, i.e., zero values are not necessary but assumed in the absence of data.
Each activity can be assigned a cost and a cost type and a time cost in days.
Where no cost is available, or where a cost is inappropriate, a row can be added with the relevant category selected and the value and cost type fields left blank. This will allow activities to be analysed as simple counts.
Activities can be further classified by the delivery approach.
On the Technical Assistance tab, there is a list. One project can have multiple items of data. One item of data is defined as:
Name
Definition
Type
Id
A within-project original, flexible identifiers to be referenced in another sheet. This can be set by any analyst. The outcome is what changes for an individual as the result of a service or intervention.
Text
Title - (Value)
A summary name for this element of TA. Note that each project may have multiple elements of TA. TA may be broken into different elements as necessary to allow the category, cost and/or other variables to be completed.
Text
Description - (Value)
Description of this element of TA.
Text
Period Start - (Value)
Date when this specific element of TA starts
Enter a date in format YYYY, YYYY-MM or YYYY-MM-DD
Period End - (Value)
Date when this specific element of TA finishes.
Enter a date in format YYYY, YYYY-MM or YYYY-MM-DD
Funding Organisation Id - (Value)
Id of the organization that pays for technical assistance.
Text
Recipient Organisation Id - (Value)
