| How to use cost recording |  |
| During project execution, you want to record actual costs optionally, against the project budget lines. Cost recording can be done in Project, or in the Financials and then transferred to Project. Specify the level at which you want to record project costs with the Project - Cost Control Levels (tppdm6102m000) session in the Project Definition module. The options are: By element/ activity By cost type By control code By cost object If you define an element with the Element (tpptc1100s000) session or an activity with the Activities (tppss2100s000) session, use the Cost Control check box to indicate whether you want to record project costs for the element or activity or not. If this check box is cleared, Project accumulates the element costs to the parent element. Related topics To use elements To use an element structure To use progress recording |
