Since there may be situations when different cost factors need to be applied based on vendor or transaction type (such as work order completion or receipt of product), Sterling Selling and Fulfillment Foundation allows the creation of a Cost Factor Group.
A cost factor group represents a set of cost factors that are applied to the base cost for a given scenario. Each cost factor within a group is a reference to a common definition – the group gives a specific value to a factor for the particular scenario.
