- Days & Months: Display plan data by day for one or two months, with the rest of the
project plan displayed by month. If you select this option, you also specify the month or months for which you want to display plan data by day.

| Billing/Cost

This field displays
Billing or Cost to indicate whether the plan amounts you are viewing are at billing or at cost.
If you select
Cost and Billing in
Budget Type in the Plan Settings dialog box, both
Billing and
Cost are available, and you can switch between them. When you switch, the form's grids and charts update to reflect your selection.
If your enterprise uses multiple currencies, the currency in use is indicated next to the
Show option. The project cost currency is always used when viewing projects, plans, and budgets at cost. A configuration setting that your system administrator selects determines whether project cost currency or billing currency is used when you view projects, plans, and budgets at billing.
When you display cost amounts, some information may not display if your security role does not provide access rights to labor cost rates and amounts.
