Reclass Preferences

Use this dialog box to select the options for running the Reclass utility, which allows you to change, copy, or replace an existing cost class.

The Reclass utility is useful when you have performed “what-if” budgeting and want to change these costs to a standard budget class such as CB. It is also possible to copy existing budget costs to either actual or forecast cost classes or to copy an actual cost class to a forecast class.
