Use this screen to enter information specific to government contracts.

For commercial contracts, enter at least the Incurred Cost Submission Code, if you require this code for all projects, per your selection on the Projects tab of the Configure Project Settings screen. Certain processes within Costpoint rely heavily upon the data entered here, and completion of this screen is required for all government contracts.

Since most government contracts are consistent in cascading key provisions throughout the entire project, regardless of the project level, the Allow Edit check box is applicable to almost every field on this screen. It is likely that no modification is allowed for any project entered except for the top-level project. This means that you probably enter data on this screen only once, at the top-level of a given project. For all lower project levels, you need only to save that same data (rather than re-enter it.) When you enter a record in this screen, the information saves to all lower levels of the project tree.

Use this screen as part of the project initialization, particularly if the project is the result of a government contract.
