Edit cost items

If you want to add more detail for a cost item, select the item, and then click the Edit cost pricing summary icon. The Edit slide-out panel includes tabs for details, cost categories, and resources.

Cost item details

The Details tab lets you edit the adjusted quantity and other information or the cost item. When the Cost source is Plug, you can edit the adjusted cost. The Details tab also lets you view adjusted man-hours pay item information for existing cost items.

When the Cost pricing field is set to Vendor, you can assign a vendor to the cost item. To assign a vendor, expand the drop-down list in the top right corner, and then choose a vendor.

Cost categories

The Cost categories tab shows the adjusted cost distributed across the cost categories. You can see the adjusted cost, billing rate markup, billing amount, current budget, and current estimate.

When the Cost source is Plug, you can update the adjusted cost, billing rate markup, and billing amount. Updating the adjusted cost affects other calculations. When you update the adjusted cost, Change prompts you to choose whether to adjust the Labor cost/Mhr or Adjusted Mhrs calculation.

Resources tab

The Resources tab shows resources assigned to that cost item in InEight Control. The Resources tab lets you add resources from the Control resources library.
