Filtering Phase: Select a filtering phase that determines the funded projects in the report. Please note each filtering phase has its own funded and unfunded project list and carries its own set of funding allocation numbers. The default is the current working filtering phase using your working cycle and working scenario. If you do not have the right to set the working cycle and working scenario, then your working cycle and working scenario will be the same as the system default. For further information on working scenario, system default scenario, working cycle, and system default cycle, please visit the Cycle and Scenario section under the Utilities module.
