View Cost Code Data Definitions

Cost Code Data Definitions are used in the Cost Manager to build the identifier for a row of cost data. Your company may refer to these as Account Codes, Cost Codes or CBS Codes. For example, these could link costs on a project/shell to the General Ledger for Finance.

CBS Codes can be built with one to a maximum of 10 cost code segments. Each segment is defined by a different data definition, so a five-segment CBS Code would require five cost code data definitions.

Cost Code values may be entered one at a time or imported from a CSV file.

To access Cost Code Data Definitions:

  1. Go to the Company Workspace tab and switch to Admin mode.
  2. In the left Navigator, select Data Structure Setup, select Data Definitions, and then select Cost Codes. The Cost Code Data Definitions log opens.
