Contract Line Item Number Cost Schedule Line Layout (CCS)

The CLIN Cost Schedule (CLIN_CST_SCH) table stores CLIN Cost Schedule information.

You cannot process CLIN Cost Schedule Line Types unless Item and Project CLIN Product information exists.

This Line Type is required if the Cost of Sales Calculation Code is C (Cost Schedule). Otherwise, the record is rejected.

There cannot be any gaps in the date range, and each new date range must not overlap any existing rows. Each new row must have a start date one day later than the latest end date (or earlier than all existing start dates). 

The Unit Cost Amount can be updated if values exist for the From Quantity, To Quantity, Start Date, and End Date fields.

If the From Quantity, To Quantity, and End Date values exist, the program update the existing From Quantity, To Quantity, and End Date values by changing the current End Date value to one day before the provided Start Date.

For example, if a row currently exists with the following values:

FROM_QTY TO_QTY START_DT END_DT UNIT_CST_AMT
.0001 9999999999.9999 01/01/2006 12/31/2007 516.97

A line is encountered in the input file with the following values:

FROM_QTY TO_QTY START_DT END_DT UNIT_CST_AMT
.0001 9999999999.9999 04/01/2006 12/31/2007 549.16

The End Date of the existing row is modified and a new row is inserted. The two rows contain the following values:

FROM_QTY TO_QTY START_DT END_DT UNIT_CST_AMT
.0001 9999999999.9999 01/01/2006 03/31/2006 516.97
.0001 9999999999.9999 04/01/2006 12/31/2007 549.16

You can view or update the information stored in this table on the Manage CLIN Information screen in Costpoint Project Setup. 

Note: The application uses default values for INSERTS ONLY if the input file field value is not provided. The exception is MODIFIED_BY, which is updated using the default value if no value is provided.
