The first step would be to log in. Log In into Sahana Eden system and then click on ‘Projects’ in the top navigation menu.

Troubleshooting

I don’t see the Annual Budget Tab and Funding report link.

If you are using the default template, its most likely that you won’t see them by default. You will need to follow the below steps in order to see those options

1) You’ll need to go to your web2py directory in your system.

2) Once there, go to applications -> eden -> private -> templates -> default.

3) Here open the file ‘config.py’ in a text editor.

4) In this file, you’ll have to find the following lines and remove the # (number sign) from the starting of the lines.

settings.project.mode_3w = True

settings.project.community = True

5) Save the file and restart web2py.

Now you should be able to see those options. If you are using the IFRC template, then there is no need of the above modifications.

I want to export all the communities

In the Communities tab, you would see the list of the communities. Click on the icons near Export all to export the list.
