Charge Type This column displays the charge type of the project. The following are the available charge types:
  • Regular — Regular projects are projects that produce revenue. Costs charged to regular projects include direct labor, direct expense, and reimbursable expense. Detail is retained for the life of the project.

  • Promotional — Promotional projects track the cost of acquiring contracts. If you obtain the contract, you can create a regular project and transfer the detail to it to be billed or tracked. A promotional project is the same as an overhead project, except that Vision does not reset project costs to zero at the start of each fiscal year as it does for overhead projects.
