Cost-Plus

Commercial Price

For general expenses, the commercial price is determined by the intercompany price of the General Expense code specified for the employee in the Expense field of the General Expenses (bptmm1111m300) session. Intercompany prices for general expense codes are specified in the Intercompany Price field of the General Expense Types (bpmdm0155m000) session.

To book project expenses, various types of expenses are available. These are grouped by cost type. For each type of expense, you can specify an intercompany price or intercompany rate that determines the commercial price:

Zero Price

The value 0 (zero) is used for an internal invoice, because the costs are considered to be part of another invoice line, for example, the surcharge for labor or material.

The employees can book expenses to be compensated for the costs, but the expenses are not internally charged to the department on whose behalf these costs were incurred.
