If the project has been created from a project template, the system inserts the option specified for the template on the Project Templates (PM208000) form, but you can override the default option. In the out-of-the-box system, the ability to assign projects to project groups is granted to only users to whom the Administrator, Internal Projects, or Payroll Projects role is assigned on the User Roles (SM201005) form. For more information on configuring restriction groups for projects, see Project Creation and Processing: Project Security Configuration. |

If you have reversed the most recent
change order for the project, you can reuse its revenue change number—that is, assign
this number to the next created change order. To be able to do this, you need to change
the value in the Revenue Change Nbr. box to the revenue change
number of the change order that precedes the reversed one. This will not lead to an
error of duplicated numbers because the reversed change order does not affect the
project revenue anymore. This box appears on the form only if the Change Orders feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form. |
Project Currency |
The project currency. When you select a customer for the project, the system fills in the box with the customer's currency, which is specified in the Currency ID box on the Financial tab of the Customers (AR303000) form.

Description | The description of the revenue budget line. |
Original Budgeted Quantity | The budgeted quantity of the revenue budget line. |
UOM |
The unit of measure (UOM) of the revenue budget line. If an inventory item is selected in the Inventory ID column, the UOM column is automatically filled in with the base unit of measure of this inventory item, which can be changed to another UOM available for the item. If the budget line is created based on the project template selected in the Template box in the summary area of this form, the system uses the UOM of the corresponding budget line of this project template. If no UOM is defined for the corresponding budget line of the selected project template, the system selects the UOM by using the logic described above. When the system creates a new budget line based on a source document line, if the source line has an inventory item specified, the system fills in the UOM with the base unit of measure of this inventory item. Otherwise, if the source line has no inventory item specified or has the empty item code specified, the system does not fill in the UOM. |
Unit Rate |
The price of the specified unit of the revenue budget line. By default, the system populates this column with the price of the inventory item selected in the budget line. The system searches among the sales prices in the system for an applicable price that is effective on the start date of the project. For more details on how the system searches for the price, see Automatic Price Selection: Rules of Price Selection. By default, the amount is shown in the project currency, which is specified in the Project Currency box on the Summary tab of the current form.

If the Change Orders feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form and the Change Order Workflow check box is selected for the project on the Summary tab of the current form, in the new revenue budget line created based on the change order, the unit rate is copied from the corresponding change order line. If the Project Quotes feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form and the project
was created based on a project quote, in each created revenue
budget line, the system calculates the unit rate based on the
values in the estimation line of project quote by using the
following formula: If the Multicurrency Projects feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form, the system searches for an applicable sales price in the project currency (which is specified in the Project Currency box on the Summary tab of the current form) using the rate that is effective on the start date of the project. For more information, see Multicurrency Projects: Unit Rates in the Project Budget. |
