Additional costs 
Under additional costs, you can define and administer Special Direct Costs, such as tools and development costs. Additional costs are mainly used for the allocation of Special Direct Costs.
FACTON offers you different procedures to determine the cost allocation. The cost rates can either be predefined in the Data Administration or defined in the project. The cost Type (e.g. one-time costs or annual costs) and allocation method (e.g. allocation on total quantity) can also be defined in the Data Administration.

- Evaluate additional costs via Cost models
