Creating Project Codes

Create project codes to represent project evaluation criteria. These steps represent the minimum required to create a project code.

To create a project code:

On the Navigation Menu, expand Administration and click Enterprise Data.
On the Enterprise Data page, expand Projects and click Project Codes.
On the Project Codes page:
1. Click Context and select Add Code.
2. In the Name field, double-click and type a unique code name.
3. In the Secure field, select the option to make the code read-only for users without the necessary security privileges to make changes.
4. Move the code to the correct location in the list by clicking Context and selecting Move Up, Move Down, Move Left, or Move Right.
5. In the Maximum Length field, double-click and click the up or down arrow to specify the maximum length for project code value names.
6. Click Save.

Tip

If you intend to use reporting software, avoid using commas when creating data other than Project names. The way that data is passed to some reporting software can cause a comma to be interpreted as a delimiter between data items.
Project codes at the same level are siblings. Subordinate project codes are children.
