Definition of costs

Define the wording of costs and their families

Each cost (label) (e.g.: glass breakage) is linked to a type of cost (e.g.: insurance), which is itself linked to the notion of TCO/Non-TCO:

• All the labels attached to the TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) will be included in the cost price calculation.
• Those outside the TCO can be entered in the application, but will not be included in the calculation. These are essentially either exceptional invoiced costs that we do not wish to observe, or elements that we wish to keep track of but which do not represent an expense (e.g. a financial guarantee).
