Default Indirect Cost Type for Budget Page Items
Once you've named and defined your indirect cost types, you can use the drop-downs in the second section to select a default indirect cost type for different categories.
When you choose Selected Default Rate, that category will use the cost type that was selected as the default rate when the proposal was created.
When you create a new proposal using this institution, the rates defined here will be autofilled as options for the proposal budget categories.
Please note: Blank categories correspond to the budget lines F8-F10 in the RR Budget. If nothing is entered here, any time someone autofills the organization, these lines will be blank.
Agreement Date
Cayuse Proposals distinguishes the begin date and agreement date for Indirect Cost Rate Agreements. If you have a negotiated rate agreement, use the calendar icon to select the agreement date. The Agreement Date is auto-populated into the Modular Budget.
