Defining SPO data for equipment cost objects

To generate an Equipment Procurement Order for this type of cost object, the Procurement By field must be set to Equipment Procurement Order. The value specified in the Services Trade field is used to categorize cost objects and to match the Buy-from Business Partner (supplier) during the requirements planning. The Cost Determination method can be set to Rate Only or Amount of Time. You can budget and plan the requirement based on this method. You can select the Critical Safety Item check box to indicate that the required item is a part, assembly or support equipment whose failure can cause loss of life, permanent disability or major injury, loss of a system or significant equipment damage.
