Once the CAPMO connector is selected, a second dropdown, Select CAPMO project, lists the projects available in the linked CAPMO account - each with its CAPMO project number and address - so the new costeo project can be tied to its counterpart. A No CAPMO project link option is available for creating the link without binding it to a specific CAPMO project.
