Budget Utilisation

Reconciles recorded L&D spend against allocated budget by cohort, program or quarter, and derives unit economics (cost-per-learner, utilisation, variance). It shows a utilisation gauge, spend composition, quarter-by-quarter allocated-vs-actual, and a per-scope detail table. Works with LearnNoow and Moodle.

Every card carries an info tooltip with the same explanation, so nobody has to guess what a number counts.

    Four budget headlines for the selected scope + period.

  • gauge

    Budget gauge

    Utilisation of the allocated budget as a needle on a colour-zoned arc, with axis headroom past 100%.

  • donut

    Spend breakdown

    Composition of recorded spend, by cost category by default, by program when scope is "By program".

  • bar

    Spend vs budget by quarter

    Allocated vs actual across the trailing two-year window of quarters; over-budget actual bars render in the danger colour.

Questions

How this screen is computed from the product's own documentation.

What does the budget utilisation screen show?

Reconciles recorded L&D spend against allocated budget by cohort, program or quarter, and derives unit economics (cost-per-learner, utilisation, variance). It shows a utilisation gauge, spend composition, quarter-by-quarter allocated-vs-actual, and a per-scope detail table. Spend and budget are both supplied by you: no recorded spend renders a full-surface priming state; a missing allocation degrades only the utilisation-dependent cards, never fabricated figures.
