You can specify several default values that will be used for activities when you create new projects.

To specify default values for new projects
  1. Open the project or group of projects you want to work with in the Projects section.
  2. Click Project Details on the Projects toolbar to display the Details page.
  3. If multiple projects are open, choose the project you want to work with from the Select Project list.
Note: If a single project is open, the Select Project list does not appear. When multiple projects are open, the Select Project box lists all open projects you have rights to access. Any action you perform, and all data that appears on the page, applies to the selected project only.
  1. Click Settings.
  2. Accept the original application defaults, or type and select the values you want to use for:
Note: If you change the default duration type, percent complete type, activity type, or rate type for an existing project that has activities and resource assignments, the settings of existing activities or resource assignments will not be changed. The default settings will be applied only to new activities or new resource assignments you add to the project. If you change the default activity price/time for an existing project that has activities, the price/time of activities with assigned roles will not be changed. The new default price per time will be applied only to existing activities that have neither roles or resources assigned and to newly added activities.
