Field	Description

Billing Currency	If you track multiple currencies in Deltek, select this option to generate invoices and billing reports for a specific project and all its phases and tasks. For each project, you define the billing currency at the top level of its work breakdown structure (WBS) and the billing currency applies to any and all lower levels (that is, phases or tasks) of the project's WBS. If the project currency or the functional currency of WBS1 (project) is the same as the billing currency, you cannot change values in the Compensation, Direct Consultant, and Reimbursable Allowance columns.
Project Currency	If you track multiple currencies in Deltek, select this option if the currency that you use is the currency in which you manage the project. This currency may be different from the functional currency of the project’s home company. You use the project currency for all project management purposes, including project reporting and planning. For each project, you define the project currency at the top level of its work breakdown structure (WBS) and the project currency applies to any and all lower levels (that is, phases or tasks) of the project's WBS. When labor or expense charges are made to a project, the charges are recorded in the project currency, as well as all other appropriate currencies. If the functional currency of WBS1 is the same as the project currency, but different than the billing currency, you cannot change values in the Compensation, Direct Consultant, and Reimbursable Allowance columns.
Functional Currency	If you track multiple currencies in Deltek, select this option to use the currency of the primary economic environment in which a company operates. Normally, this is the currency in which cash is generated and expended by the company. If the functional currency is the same as the project currency, but different than the billing currency, you cannot change values in the Compensation, Direct Consultant, and Reimbursable Allowance columns.
Compensation	The compensation value is automatically calculated based on the amounts entered for the Direct Labor services and Direct Expenses as: Compensation = Direct Labor + Direct Expense You cannot make changes directly to this field; however, the compensation amount will update as changes are made to the direct labor and direct expense amounts.
Direct Consultant	Enter the monetary amount that represents the direct consultant fees that your company expects to receive for the project. The direct consultant amount should include fees for consultant work that are not reimbursable.
Reimbursable Allowance	This field displays the monetary amount that represents your company's reimbursable allowance for the project. The reimbursable allowance amount should include all expenses that will be reimbursed to your company by the client, including reimbursable consultant fees, and is calculated as: Reimbursable Allowance = Reimbursable Consultant + Reimbursable Expense You cannot make changes directly to this field; however, the reimbursable allowance amount will update as changes are made to the reimbursable consultant and reimbursable expense amounts.
Total Contract	This column displays the calculated sum of the Compensation, Direct Consultant, and Reimbursable Allowance values for each row. This column has a total at the bottom of the Contracts grid. The currency format is according to the WBS level entered on the row.

Contract Details Grid

Use the Contract Details grid to distribute a contract’s amounts among WBS2 and WBS3 levels. Depending on options that your firm selects in Settings, Deltek may require that contract amounts be entered at the lowest level of your WBS. If you do not synchronize contract amounts to project fees, or you do not require project fees at the lowest level of the WBS, you can enter contract details at any level of the WBS.

Any contract details entered on this grid will automatically display on the Contract Details grid of the Contract Management tab.
