Hi

You are right Mr.Ammar,

The Oracle Projects Suite was first introduced in 1993 as Project Accounting. It consisted of Project Costing and Project Billing.

It has evolved into the current suite of applications which include: Project Foundation; Project Costing; Project Billing; Project management; Project Collaboration; Project Resource Management; and
Project Portfolio Analysis.

Project Contracts, is part of Projects Suite. however with a close look, this is part of the Contracts Suite.
