Figure 4-1. Cost Center Structure Worksheet
Use the worksheet to define the following parameters:
1. LEVEL
Description: The level of importance of each element is
specified, where Level 1 is the most important (major
field) and the highest level number is the least
important (minor field). A cost center data element is
built for each cost center level that is defined. For
example, if the reporting needs for Accounting and
Chargeback include five levels, then the accounting
files in the CA MICS database would have the following
data elements:
COSTCTR1 COSTCTR2 COSTCTR3 COSTCTR4 COSTCTR5
Default: None
Values: Numeric, from 1-9. Cost center numbers must be
defined sequentially with no gaps between levels.
However, values do not have to be defined for all nine
cost center levels.
NOTE: Unlike other CA MICS product files, in which
SYSID is the highest, COSTCTR is the highest
level of the sort key of accounting files.
2. LENGTH
Description: The length of the specified element.
Default: None
Values: Numeric, from 1 to 30.
3. COST CENTER NAME
Description: The name that describes the cost center
level. This will be the SAS label associated with the
variable COSTCTRx and can be used in SAS reporting.
Default: None
Values: Character, length 40, enclosed in single
quotes.
