Introduction
A cost center is a financial grouping associated with an equipment item. It may correspond to a geographic area, but its main purpose is to act as a cost management grouping axis.
This article explains how to create a cost center, as well as the limitations regarding editing or deleting it.
Creating a cost center
A cost center is created directly from the input field when adding or modifying an equipment item or a spare part.
- Go to the relevant equipment or spare part, click Edit equipment.
- In the Cost center field, start typing the name of the cost center.
-
If no existing result matches your entry, the dropdown menu will display the option Create for the cost center you entered.
- Click this option and the new cost center will automatically be created and associated with the equipment or spare part.
If you enter a new location when creating a spare part, a message will inform you that the location will be automatically created once the spare part is validated.
Editing a cost center
- Editing an existing cost center is not possible.
- If a change is required (incorrect name, organizational change), you must contact Mobility Work support.
Deleting a cost center
- Deleting a cost center is not possible through the interface.
- For any deletion or correction request, please contact Mobility Work support so the operation can be performed safely.
Key points
- A cost center is created on the fly when entering an equipment item or spare part.
