I’m building a report and trying to determine the correct source for the project budget value.

Right now the report uses the Estimated column from the Activities table, but that doesn’t always match the value shown in:

Project Management > Budgeting and Forecasting > Analysis > Project Budget Control Summary

From what I understand, the Control Total on that page represents the true project budget.

Does anyone know which table/field stores the Control Total, or the correct relationship path from Projects to the Control Total value so it can be used in reporting?

to add onto this, I can see in the query builder the table labeled “ProjectTotal” with an entity called “Actual Costs” which may be what I’m looking for? Not sure!

Hi ​@TWilson,

There is a standard getter function available in Project_Budget_Control_Rules_API to get ControlTotal value.

Getter Function -  PROJ_BUDGET_CONTROL_RULES_API.Get_Control_Total(COMBINATION_ID)

Please check if this can help.

How would I go about using this getter function?
