A latest estimate is a cost driver still to arrive which is included or not included in the budget and is not being covered by an order. A latest estimate can be used to register the expected minimum budget spendings within a contract, regardless of already placed orders or received invoices.

Normally you will register a latest estimate if you expect a claim, an unexpected setback or a non-legally agreed funding (for instance from governments).
