Estimations are a key tool in order to manage a project. An estimation may contain the figures concerning budget, balance and estimation at completion of working days and financials (to manage financials, the FM - Financial Management module is required).
Estimations can be managed from the Estimation section of the project. Every estimation refers to a spefic Estimation Date which influences the data shown. Actually, data are those calculated at the Estimation Date (e.g. only the timesheets occurring before the date are considered).

"Per Project" means that the estimation data are referring to all the project duration. "Per Year" means that the estimation will be structured in different sections where to plan (e.g. budget) per each year (the numbers of years available will depend on project dates (in particular Internal Operational Start Date and Internal Operational End Date in General section). "Per month means that the estimation will be structured in different sections where to plan for each months. Again, the number of months will depend on project dates.
