AAIs for a Range of Contract Cost Types (CR)

Use this AAI to determine a range of valid cost types for the contracts.

You must follow these guidelines when you set up CR AAIs:

  • The first two characters must be CR.

  • The second two characters indicate the contract type, such as OS and OP.

    You must also define the contract types in the UDC table for document types (00/DT). If you use base agreements, you must set up a range of CR AAIs for the base agreement contract types. For example, if the base agreement contract type is defined as BC, you must set up a CRBCxx range of AAIs.

  • The last two characters must be a numeric value from 01 to 99.

    These values must always occur in sequential pairs that represent ranges. For example, CROP01 is associated with CROP02, CROS97 is associated with CROS98, and so on.

  • Do not assign company, business unit, or subsidiary to the CR AAIs.

When you enter a cost type for the contracts, the system first compares it to the CT AAIs and then to the CR AAIs to ensure that the cost type is valid.
