You can manually enter the code for each new project or can, through this option, choose to have codes allocated automatically in sequence.
Check:
•Use Automated Project Code and then specify the:
o prefix for each code or choose the Master Project Code token
o Start Number, which will be incremented for each new project
o Pad To as the length of the numeric part of the code (excluding the prefix).
•Only Enforce Required Fields on Status Change applies to non-mandatory system fields on the Project Type that are marked as ‘Required’. If the setting is unchecked, all required fields must be entered before a record can be saved. If it is checked, however, only mandatory system fields have to be present for a save and other ‘Required’ fields are only essential when a project progresses to a new status (but not if it reverts to a previous status).
This means that new and changed project data can be entered when it is identified rather than all having to be available for input at the same time. A different colored asterisk is used to differentiate between the two types of required fields when the setting is enabled.
