Field	Description
Allow Recalc on classes not editable in the time-phase grid	Select this option to recalculate read-only cost classes. Cobra uses the value of this option if you run the Recalc API process and do not include the AllowReadOnlyClasses setting in the API script. Cobra displays an error if the Secure check box for this option is selected and the value of this setting does not match the value of the AllowReadOnlyClasses setting in the API script.
Use a rate of 1 instead of 0 when a rate is not found	Select this option if you do not want the value in the time-phased database to be replaced with zero when the rate is missing. This is useful when the value in the database is more accurate than zero. Cobra uses the value of this option if you run the Recalc API process and do not include the ReplaceResults setting in the API script. Cobra displays an error if the Secure check box for this option is selected and the value of this setting does not match the value of the ReplaceResults setting in the API script.
Allow recalculation of completed Control Accounts and Work Packages	Select this option to run the Recalc process against control accounts and work packages that have a status of Completed. Cobra uses the value of this option if you run the Recalc API process and do not include the AllowComplete setting in the API script. Cobra displays an error if the Secure check box for this option is selected and the value of this setting does not match the value of the AllowComplete setting in the API script.
Selected	Selecting this check box for any of the options makes the option selected by default in the process wizard where it is located.
Secure	Selecting this check box for any of the options prevents users from changing the setting for that particular option in process wizards where these options are also located. Cobra uses this feature to secure certain options while users run processes against projects. If the Secure check box is selected, this option cannot be modified on the options pages of the Cobra process wizards. Select this option to ensure that all users are using the same settings when running Cobra processes.
