Now that your Cost Analysis Structure is set up, you can set up rules within Cintra iQ, according to how you want your costs to be analysed when you extract Cost Analysis data. The rule set up is based on pay elements.
You can also group multiple pay elements together under a costing category so that you can apply cost analysis rules to categories of pay elements rather than individual pay elements. Cost Categories are used to group together payments (additions) and overheads that are to be treated in the same way by the costing rules set up in Cost Allocations or Mapped Cost Allocations.
To assign overheads
- Navigate to the Account Mapping window.
Go to Cintra iQ: Payroll> Payroll Setup> Accounting - Navigate to the Costing Categories tab.
- In the Overheads by Cost Category pane, right-click: Open on the desired record. The Overhead's Cost Categories form appears.
- Select the desired Costing Category.
- Click the OK button. The overhead is added to the cost category.
- Click the OK button.
To assign an addition
- Navigate to the Accounts Mapping window.
Go to Cintra iQ: Payroll> Payroll Setup> Accounting - Navigate to the Additions by Cost Category pane in the Cost Categories tab.
- Right-click: Open. The Additions Cost Categories form appears.
- Select the desired Costing Category.
- Click the OK button. The addition is added to the cost category.
