This screen is only accessible to Super Administrators only.

This screen contains the configuration settings for Org and Project budgeting as well as other general settings including those that control the display formats for dates and decimals.

Most of these settings are selected during the post-installation process for new installations or during the post-upgrade process for customers upgrading from version 6.1 to the latest version.  Complete Help for this screen is located in the following guides:

The settings available to you in the Configuration Settings screen rarely need to be modified and should be changed only after careful consideration or upon the advice of a either a Customer Care representative or Deltek Global Services consultant.

If settings are updated, you need to either manually run the refresh process or complete the automatic nightly data refresh to apply the changes upon the next user log in.
