Project Defaults

If you establish project defaults in Settings > General > Project Defaults, Deltek uses your default settings each time that you create a new project record. You can then modify the values in the new record.

Deltek limits project defaults to certain tabs and fields. You cannot use this feature to set default values for an entire record.

\When you create a new project record, Deltek applies project defaults in the following ways:

• When you click New > Hubs > Projects > New Project to create a project, Deltek applies all the project defaults to the project.
• If you create a project from an opportunity or a plan, certain values are determined by values in the opportunity or plan record; for fields not pulled from the opportunity or plan record, Deltek uses the project defaults.
• If you copy an existing project to create a new project, Deltek uses the field information of the existing project; it does not use project defaults.
• If you use a project template to create a project, Deltek overrides the project template fields with the information from the project defaults.
