MANAGE NASA 533 PROJECT INFORMATION

Use this screen to enter data that appears in the heading of the NASA 533 reports, including the name and title of the federal addressee, scope of work, government contract number, and the name of the authorized representative of your company.

You can also use this screen to specify the format and budget revisions of the reports. You can designate different budget revisions for the monthly and quarterly reports.

You must complete this screen for each project that requires NASA 533 reporting. The information entered at the highest level is used for all lower levels of the project; therefore, you need to set up additional levels only when those levels use information that is different from the highest level.

Do not complete this screen until you have completed the Manage NASA 533 Formats screen and the Manage Project Budgets by Period screen. Modify this screen only when one of the variables changes.
