Setting Up Cost Type Percentages
Access the Cost Type Percentages Revisions form.
- Cost Type
Enter a code that designates each element of cost for an item. Examples of the cost object types are:
A1: Purchased raw material
B1: Direct labor routing rollup
B2: Setup labor routing rollup
C1: Variable burden routing rollup
C2: Fixed burden routing rollup
Dx: Outside operation routing rollup
Xx: Extra add-ons, such as electricity and water
The optional add-on computations usually operate with the type Xx extra add-ons. This cost structure enables you to use an unlimited number of cost components to calculate alternative cost rollups. The system then associates these cost components with one of six user-defined summary cost buckets.
The work order connects the cost type to the coverage group.
- Percentage Covered
Enter the percentage covered under warranty or contract. This is used to calculate the amount to bill or the amount to cost for the line item being processed on the service order or call.
