Cost Classes

If you have defined custom cost classes for actual costs, you can display and enter costs using any actual cost class.

For example, items such as commitments and accruals can be entered into Cobra. These values can be used for reporting or to improve the accuracy of a forecast.

If you are exporting outstanding commitments from your accounting system, these values are cumulative-to-date values. When a commitment is no longer outstanding, a record must be exported or entered into Cobra in order for that account to indicate there is no longer an outstanding commitment.
