Cost centres and cost types can be maintained via Maintenance > Financial.

 

For creating multiple cost centres, the function Import cost centres can be used.

 

By entering a cost type at the general ledger account, the account becomes a cost type account.

When a journal entry is made for a cost type account, the cost centre is mandatory.

 

At a cost type, a default cost centre can be set.

The cost centre in the journal will automatically be filled when the cost type has a default cost centre.

 

A default cost centre can also be entered at a debtor and a creditor.

When journals are made in a debtors or creditors daybook, this cost centre is filled automatically for the opposite accounts when they are cost type accounts.

 

Default cost centres will also be applied when invoices are booked via the invoicing module.
