ME COST SOURCE TYPES

Use this application to define the types of costs that can be used when identifying item costs for a proposal. The database is pre-loaded with 18 different cost source types and descriptions that the system uses when displaying costs in the Maintain PBOM Cost Estimates applications. You cannot delete or modify these pre-loaded rows; however, you can add rows to the table by selecting the New Line button on the toolbar. You can later modify or delete any rows that you add.  The Find, Query, and Clone functions are disabled in this screen.
