What You Need to Do 
‰
Turn on the project allocation option.  
‰
If you wish, rename the Project module. 
‰
Decide how you want to allocate to projects. 
‰
Add a list of projects.  
Why Would I Use Projects? 
If you allocate (distribute) all or part of a transaction to one or 
more projects, revenue centres, or cost centres, you can produce 
detailed or summary reports on specific parts of your business. 
For example, if an employee works for one day a week on Project 
A and four days on Project B, you can allocate 20 percent of the 
payroll expense for that employee to Project A and 80 percent to 
Project B.  
The Project module does not have its own transaction window. 
You use the following types of transactions to allocate amounts 
to projects: 
■ 
Purchases. 
■ 
Sales. 
■ 
Paycheques, including payroll cheque runs. 
■ 
Miscellaneous transactions. 
■ 
Inventory adjustments. 
For more information, see Chapter 17, “Allocating Revenues and 
Expenses to Projects.”
