Editing the cost coefficients


This section describes how to use the MSU Cost Editor to edit your cost coefficients and manage multiple cost tables.

You can use the MSU Cost Editor to:

  • Edit the cost coefficients for each MLC product
  • Create multiple Cost Tables to manage future changes to MLC product costs or alternative pricing arrangements
  • Set the active Cost Table to be used by the Model Builder Tasks when building cost models

Note

During the installation, 

Cost Management

 sets the SPRDFIL cost table as the default and sets all cost coefficient values to zero. If the installation replaces a previous version of 

Cost Management

, all cost coefficients are preserved in the SPRDFIL cost table.

When setting up Cost Management, use the MSU Cost Editor to enter the actual cost information from your contract with IBM and adjust each component of the cost so that it accurately reflects the real cost structure that has been established for your enterprise.

To set up your cost tables, complete the following tasks with the MSU Cost Editor:

Notes

The following conditions apply:

  • Modifications to the cost tables will affect the cost models that are used by the MLC Monthly Reporting, MLC Planning, MLC Software Contract Reporting, and TFP Monthly Reporting tools.
  • The format of monetary units, decimal numbers, dates, and times are determined by the Reporting Locale setting. The default Reporting Locale setting is English (United States): en-US. If you need to change the Reporting Locale, see Changing-the-reporting-locale.
