SUBCONTRACT AND OTHER COSTS

Use this subtask to view two types of costs related to the sales order line. The costs can be C (Subcontract costs) type, or O (Other costs) type . This screen displays C (Subcontract) type costs when you enter a purchase order and associate it with a sales order. This subtask also displays O (Other) type costs that you add manually. You can add other type O (Other) costs to the sales order line at any time.

Use purchase order entry to add costs in Costpoint. The purchase order must reference the sales order number and sales order line along with a cost type C for the costs to be available on this subtask.

Generally, sales orders are entered and requisitions are created for the orders. The requisitions are in turn generated into purchase orders. Once the purchase order exists and is maintained to reflect the subcontract costs, this subtask displays the cost data. You cannot modify subcontract cost data on this subtask. Use the Manage Purchase Orders screen for subcontract cost modifications.

Costs displayed and maintained on this subtask are available for sales analysis reporting.
