During your implementation, you set a value for each profile option in Oracle Projects to
specify how Oracle Projects controls access to and processes data. Generally, your
System Administrator sets and updates profile values using the System Profile Values
window to set up profile options. See: Setting User Profile Options (Oracle Applications
System Administrator's Guide).
Users can also update certain profile options that are defined to be updated by end users.
Users can set their personal profile options in the Personal Profile Values window.

Indicates the unit of measure to use for all invoice lines interfaced from Oracle Projects
and created in Oracle Receivables. Oracle Receivables requires a unit of measure for each
invoice line. Oracle Projects creates each invoice line with a quantity of 1, a unit of the
unit type you specify in your profile option, and an amount equal to the dollar amount of
the invoice line as it appears in Oracle Projects.
You need to define a unit of measure class before you define a unit of measure, since
Oracle Receivables requires that you associate each unit of measure you define with a
unit of measure class. Oracle Projects recommends that you define a unit of measure of
Each or EA in Oracle Receivables for use with this profile. You must define a unit of
measure and a unit of measure class before you can set this profile option. For detailed
information, see the Oracle Receivables User's Guide.
If you are using Oracle Projects without Oracle Receivables, you do not need to set this
profile. Oracle Projects uses the value EA.
You can choose from any unit of measure defined in Oracle Receivables.

Generator. It is recommended to set it to No temporarily at the User level. Running the
Account Generator with this profile option set to No fills up the workflow tables and
slows performance.
Choose whether to update rates and amounts assigned to tax codes in the Transactions
window in Oracle Receivables, if you defined tax codes in the Tax Codes and Rates
window and set Ad-hoc to Yes.
The value for this option may be set by the system administrator at the site, application,
responsibility, and user levels, but cannot be updated by the user.
Use this profile option to prevent unapproved exemptions from being entered into
Receivables. You can use this profile option to control whether you allow sales tax
systems to automatically create unapproved sales tax exemptions during invoice entry.
This modification only relates to invoice entry, as AutoInvoice previously allowed you to
enter unapproved exemptions when this profile option was set. This profile's default
setting is set to Yes at the application level for Oracle Projects.
The value for this option may be set by the system administrator at the site, application,
responsibility, and user levels, but cannot be updated by the user.
