Other cost lines with cost type Rental

When the Rentable check box is selected for a service order activity in the Service Order Activity session, you can create the related other cost lines in the Service Order Other Costs (tssoc2142m000) session with the Cost Type field set to Rental.

Note: You cannot clear the Rentable check box of the activity if other cost lines with the Cost Specification Type field set to Rental exist.

For the rental other cost line, you must specify:

  • An item of the type, Cost or Service.
  • The Free Rental Quantity and Unit. The free rental quantity is subtracted from the estimated/actual quantity before the (invoicing) amounts are calculated.
    Note: The total quantity must be more than zero.

The Unit Cost of the Rental Period Costs cost line is the unit cost of the rental equipment item of the related rental agreement. This unit cost is retrieved from Project Equipment.

The unit cost of the cost or service item is not considered. However, the item is used to determine the sales price and/or discounts in pricing.
