To use costs

During project execution, you want to record the actual costs. Cost recording can be performed in Project, or in the Financials and then transferred to Project.

If you define an element with the Element (tpptc1100s000) session or an activity with the Activities (tppss2100m000) session, use the Cost Control check box to indicate whether you want to record project costs for the element or activity or not. If this check box is cleared, Project accumulates the element costs to the parent element.
