When creating a new engagement you may encounter the following error: Non-billable engagements must use the engagement's G/L currency. Please ensure there is at least one active rate card denominated in the G/L currency for this engagement.

This error appears because every engagement requires a back-end rate card. Even though this doesn't matter for Non-billable engagements, it is a schema that must be adhered to.

Solution

  • Identify the cost center of the engagement. 
  • Then identify the company that cost center is a part of. 
  • Finally identify the currency of that company. 
  • Once you know the currency go to the Rate Card Editor and create a new rate card in that currency.
