The Project/Dept Financial Forecast - Transactions in Original Currency

The Transactions in Original Currency tab of the Project/Dept Financial Forecast displays total values for all communications in the project/dept, rolled up to the project/dept base currency or to one of the currencies used as contract base currencies.

Organization currency rates are used to calculate the project/dept total values from contracts which have a different base currency.

   The Financial Forecast page is displayed, showing the By Contract tab.
