On this page, you can create, edit and delete a control structure item, such as a type of costs, cost centre, project or the additional control structures A and B. You can also specify budgets for the control structure item. If you are creating a new control structure item, you can also specify relations that determine whether and how the control structure item can be used by users of the company to which the item is assigned.

You can use this selection list to create a hierarchy for the control structure item. For example, you may create a type od costs Hardware maintenance and then create further types of costs as subdivisions of this type of costs, such as Printer maintenance, PC maintenance and Network maintenance. Select the name of the control structure item to which the current item should belong. This has no effect on budget creation, that is, no budget values are loaded by default and the budget of superior accounting data is not distributed to subordinate data. Also, the start and end date are totally dependent on the accounting data hierarchy. |
