Cost Type Either Labor or Sundry Costs. Expense Independent of the selected cost type, you can choose a
standard or a project session:
Cost Component A cost component is a collection of cost objects with a certain
characteristic. A cost component does not depend on the cost type, therefore,
for example, a project can be monitored from another dimension. For example,
all the costs that refer to electrical work, for example, cable and
installation work, are visible if the applicable cost objects are linked to the
cost component Electrical work. Billable If this check box is selected, the expenses can be
invoiced. Quantity The number of units. Unit The physical quantity in which an item or good is managed. For
example, a quantity of wood can be expressed as a length by using the unit of
one meter, or as a volume by using the unit of one cubic meter. Currency A generally accepted medium of exchange such as coins, treasury
notes, and banknotes. The following currency types are available in LN:
Price The price per unit. Expense Amount The total amount for this expense line. Registration Date The date of registering the time that an employee spends on a
specific project or activity. Line Origin Allowed values
