Select this option to create a new BASE Pay Item for the contract.

Note: A Base Item is a brand-new contract item with a unique item index and its own unit price, unit of measure and description.  You may define one or more Pay Items for each Base Item, each with its own item name and authorized quantity. Multiple pay items for a single base item are used to target different funding categories.

• Enter required/optional base item information.
• Click Finish.

The new Base Pay Item will be displayed in the Pay Items tab grid. The Pay Item can be edited or removed before being authorized.
