Budget Cost Surcharges by Material (tpptc0120s000)

Use this session to maintain cost surcharges by material for the selected element, cost component or extension.

You can create surcharges only for projects that have a free or active project status.

The surcharge is taken over budget lines in which the selected material cost object is used.
