As an SOW owner or a project manager, tracking cost allocation details is easier. You enter them once under the General Information tab on an SOW and they persist to all SOW financials.

You can even add cost allocations for milestone payments, units of measure (UoMs) and SOW resources. Plus, you can still edit cost allocation values on individual SOW financials when you need to.

TIP: Existing force flags for cost allocation on project units of measures are not affected by this feature.

Prerequisite: Your Enterprise site must be configured to allow you to edit cost allocation details.

Information in this article reflects a standard Enterprise configuration. Your Enterprise platform is based on your organization’s configuration. Settings and/or data visibility rules may vary slightly from what is described.

To add cost allocation details to an SOW, complete these steps from your Enterprise dashboard.
