Continuing or shelving a project

Past projects that could not be completed in the previous period are automatically continued at the beginning of the decision period. Hence, all your uncompleted projects will appear in the R&D home form shown in Figure 45. Click on a project name to zoom on the project and show its recap form, as shown in Figure 46.

Figure 46 – R&D decisions – Shelve Project

To continue a project, you simply need to allocate a budget to it, as explained in sections V.7.F and Figure 46 Because a continued project is a past project, the recap form tells you exactly what budget is required to complete it. The other decisions – name, description, characteristics and base cost – cannot be modified.

To shelve a project, simply click the Shelve button at the bottom of the form. The project will be removed from your current R&D decisions and will no longer appear on the form in Figure 45. Shelved projects may be continued at any time, as explained in section V.7.C.
