Project Constants are a set of user-defined variables that can be used in addition to the "Project Settings".


The list of constants can include additional details about the job, such as Project Estimator, Telephone or Contact details, common values, statistics etc. Once created, Project Constants are available to use in Report Headers and User Variable calculations.


User Variable calculations are described elsewhere in the Help system.
