| # Budget Cost Surcharges by Cost Component (tpptc0127s000) Use this session to maintain cost surcharges by cost component for the selected element, cost component or extension. You can create surcharges only for projects that have a Free or Active project status. The surcharge is based on the budget lines in which the selected cost component is used. Project The code that uniquely identifies the project. Description The description or name of the code. Status The project's status. Sundry Cost The code that uniquely identifies the sundry costs cost object. Related topics sundry costs Sundry Cost The type of reference. Cost Component The code that uniquely identifies the cost component to which the surcharge the posted. Related topics cost component Description The description or name of the code. Sequence Number The code that uniquely identifies the sequence number. Percentage The surcharge percentage calculated on the budgeted costs for material. This calculation is based on the following formula:
    (percentage/100) * budgeted costs for the material on a single line
The surcharges are not included in the budgeted costs (a surcharge is not calculated on another surcharge). If you select an extension, the computation is as follows:
    (percentage/100) * budgeted costs of extension (Material cost-type)
Status The status of the budget. Effective Date The date on which the surcharge takes effect. Expiry Date The date on which the surcharge expires. Element The code that uniquely identifies the element. If you select an element in this field, the surcharge amount is posted to that element. If you perform a budget-cost analysis and generate control data for all elements, LN calculates the surcharge percentage on the direct costs for each element, and posts it to that element. Related topics element Description The description or name of the code. Activity The code that uniquely identifies the plan. The plan includes the activity to which the surcharge is posted.
