   To define Project information:

1. Navigate to the Organization Parameters window.

2. Select the Project Information alternative region. (Available only when Project Manufacturing is installed.)

3. Check Project Reference Enabled to activate this option.

When an organization is Project Reference Enabled, projects and optionally tasks, can be associated with jobs in Work in Process, with stock locators in Inventory, with sales orders in Order Entry and Shipping, with demand and production schedule entries and supply items in Master Scheduling/MRP and Supply Chain Planning, and with requisition and purchase order distributions in Purchasing.

4. Check Project Cost Collection Enabled to activate this option.

When an organization is Project Cost Collection Enabled, project related transactions can be collected by the Cost Collector in Cost Management and then imported into Oracle Projects. See: Transfering Project Cost and Using Transaction Import.

Note: When both Project Reference Enabled and Project Cost Collection Enabled are checked, only the Average costing method is supported. When Project Reference Enabled is checked but Project Cost Collection Enabled is not checked, both Average and Standard costing methods are supported. See the Costing Method field in the Costing Information alternative region.

5. Select the Project Control Level: Project or Task.

If Project References is enabled and you choose the Project Control Level, you can associate projects and optionally tasks with supply and demand entities. Jobs, production schedule entries, purchase requisitions are supply entities. Sales orders and demand schedule entries are demand entities.

If Project References is enabled and you choose the Task Control Level, when you associate projects with supply and demand entities you must also associate tasks.

6. Save your work.
