This activity is used to specify parent cost elements for a selected Cost Breakdown Structure (CBS) connected to your company.
When a CBS is connected to a project and a Schedule of Work is created from that project, it will allow the use of Parent Cost Elements defined in the Schedule of Work detail lines.
Once a parent cost element is selected on the Schedule of Work detail line, it will act as a filter for the Cost Element field on the same line.
As a result of this activity, parent cost elements can be defined on the Schedule of Work detail line, filtering and displaying related cost elements from the selected CBS.
