4.9.4 Specifying Invoice Category Surcharges


You can specify invoice category surcharges at the global
level, so they apply to all cost centers, and at the cost
center level, so they apply to a specified cost center.  Any
specifications for individual cost centers override the
global specifications.

To specify global invoice category surcharges, select the
Surcharges option on the Financial Recap File Specification
Menu (MWF;4;2;3;2;2;4).  To specify invoice category
surcharges for a specific cost center, select Invoice Options
on the Cost Center Attributes menu (MWF;4;2;1;1;2).


Figure 4-76 is the Global Invoice Category Surcharges
Worksheet.  Use this worksheet to define global invoice
category surcharges.
