Based on the project % complete and the actual cost incurred, the projected cost is derived. This projected cost is then compared with the budget or Cost(Est) if budget is not specified, based on which Celoxis displays the visual (Budget) health indicators.

Signal	When
On Budget	Projected cost is less than or equal to the budget [ Projected Cost <= Budget OR Cost (Est) if Budget is not specified]
At Risk	Projected cost has exceeded the budget. [ Projected Cost > Buget AND Actual Cost < Budget OR Cost (Est) if Budget is not specified]]
Over Budget	Actual cost is more than the budget. [ Actual Cost > Budget OR Cost (Est) if Budget is not specified]

For instance, your budget for a project is $1000. Now, when you spend $1000 on the project, ideally your project should have been 100% completed or when you have spent $500, your project should be 50% completed, then in this situation, Celoxis displays the signal indicating that your project is "On Budget". But if you have spent $600, and your project is only 50% completed, that means by the time your project is 100% complete, you would have spent $1200 by the current rate of spending, then in such a situation, Celoxis displays the signal indicating that your project is At Risk. However, if your project is only 80% completed, and you have already spent $1000, then, in such a situation, Celoxis displays the signal indicating that the project is "Over Budget." You can check with your team members of the probable reasons for the delays and take appropriate actions accordingly.
