Allow Edit	These check boxes are displayed at all levels of a project, and control the ability to modify the selection of certain key information about the project. During setup of a project, information that is entered cascades down to lower levels and defaults in automatically, regardless of the value of the Allow Edit check box. The check box simply determines whether the default can be modified at the lower levels. If you clear the Allow Edit check box at any level of a project, all lower-level Allow Edit check boxes are cleared accordingly. (This means that the ability to restrict edits of data cascades down automatically from the level at which it was originally restricted). However, if you select a check box after having been previously cleared it, the modification does not cascade down to lower levels. You must modify them one at a time.
Funding Source	Enter a funding source if the project entered is a top-level project. This funding source can be a government agency, a client, or any type of source you want to define. If the project entered is not a top-level project, the default value of the funding source from the top-level project is displayed. If you select the Allow Edit check box at the top level, you can enter any funding source. However, if the Allow Edit check box is not selected, you cannot modify the default top-level funding source.
DPAS Purchasing Rating	Enter the Defense Priorities and Allocation System (DPAS) rating for the project if the project entered is a top-level project. This data is used by Costpoint Purchasing; enter it only if it is applicable. If the project entered is not a top-level project, the default value of the DPAS rating from the top-level project is displayed. If you selected the Allow Edit check box at the top level, you can make an entry in any DPAS Purchasing Rating field. However, if you did not select the Allow Edit check box, you cannot modify the default top-level DPAS rating.
Agency ID	Enter the agency ID if the project entered is a top-level project. If the project entered is not a top-level project, the default value of the agency ID from the top-level project is displayed. If you selected the Allow Edit check box at the top level, you can make an entry in any Agency ID field. However, if you did not select the Allow Edit check box, you cannot modify the default top-level agency ID.
Incurred Cost Submission Code	Use this drop-down list to select the applicable incurred cost submission code if the project entered is a top-level project. Valid options are: COMM COST FLEX IR&D TM/F T&M FIXD B&P If the project entered is not a top-level project, the default value of the code from the top-level project is displayed. If you selected the Allow Edit check box at the top level, you can select any code. However, if you did not select the Allow Edit check box, you cannot modify the default top-level code. The drop-down list displays the categories of projects contained on Schedule H of the Incurred Cost Submission. If the Require Incurred Cost Submission Code for All Projects check box on the Configure Project Settings screen is selected, this field is required for all projects. All projects, including those other than government contracts, must be shown on the Incurred Cost Submission. If the Require Incurred Cost Submission Code for All Projects check box is not selected, this field is not required.
Include in Aggregate Volume	If you select this check box, this project is included in the aggregate volume funding computation. The volume of business is based on total funded value by customer. Costpoint determines which projects have the Include in Aggregate Volume check box selected in this screen and then retrieves projects with the same customer from the PROJ table. Then it sums the total amount funded for that customer to determine what aggregate volume of business must be used to determine the discount percentage that needs to apply. The default for this check box is cleared. Note: You can include any project in the funding computation even if the project does not use discount methods on the Manage Project Billing Information screen or the Manage Revenue Information screen. If your discount method is Aggregate Volume by Customer or Aggregate Volume by Customer w/Burden, the Calculate Standard Bills screen and the Compute Revenue screen compute discounts based on aggregate volume using the discount percentage from the Manage Customer Volume Discounts screen. If your discount method is Aggregate Volume by Project or Aggregate Volume by Project w/Burden, they use the discount percentage from the Manage Project Volume Discounts screen. Select the Allow Edit check box to enable modifications of this flag at this project's lower level tasks.
CAS Covered	Select this check box if Cost Accounting Standards (CAS) are applicable to the project selected. Select this check box if the project entered is a top-level project. If the project entered is not a top-level project, the default value of the selection from the top-level project displays. If you selected the Allow Edit check box at the top level, you can make any selection. However, if you did not select the Allow Edit check box, you cannot modify the default top-level selection.

However, if the Allow Edit check box is cleared, you cannot modify the default top-level From (Month/Day) date.
