Viewing the Product Cost and Margin


Now that cost lists have been set up and associated with a price list or rate list, any user can view the cost and the profit margin of products on that price list. The margin is displayed as a percentage.

NOTE:  Before viewing the cost and margin for a rate list, you must configure the product using Siebel Tools to expose those fields. For more information about using Siebel Tools, see Using Siebel Tools.
