Setup Cost Centres
Before you may use this option in osFinancials, you first need to create cost codes (cost groups, or cost centres).
Once this is done; you may activate these in specific batches (journals) and documents. Processing transactions in batches and / or documents, allows you to select specific cost Centres for each transaction.
You may then print various reports for these cost centres (Cost Centre 1 and / or Cost Centre 2).
Create Cost Groups
You may create up to Reporting Groups 2 for Cost Centres. These Cost Centres may be activated in batches (journals) and / or documents. If you only create Reporting Group 1 for Cost Centres, only one (1) Cost Centre will be available in batches and / or documents.
Once the batches and / or documents are posted (updated to the ledger), you may print reports for each cost Centres from the Reports ribbon.

-
Click on the Setup Groups menu.
