| Default Markup/Discount |
Adjusts the material cost or the total cost using a percentage factor. A negative value creates a discount, and a positive value creates a markup. For example, you can increase the cost by 15% of the material cost which gets added to the total cost. The 15% will reduce the cost with a negative percentage. Select one of the following:
|
% of Total Cost
|
Increases the cost of manufacturing based on a percentage of the total cost.
|
|
% of Material Cost
|
Increases the cost of manufacturing based on a percentage of the material cost.
|
Use this option if you get a discount on material or the total cost of a manufactured part. If you are a manufacturer, use this option to set your profit margin over your actual costs.
Select Don't show this value or allow modification in Taskpane to restrict users from modifying the value.
