Cost Distribution Tab of the Purchase Requisitions Form

Use the Cost Distribution tab to specify the project, at its lowest level of work breakdown structure, to which to charge an item's cost, tax, shipping, and other costs. DPS uses a line item's cost distribution data to calculate its committed expense. You can also use this tab to mark the item's cost as billable and view the committed expense at billing rates.
