Cost centres are a mechanism for linking financial records with a key so that reporting can be later run on those records to determine where money in an organisation is being spent. Emersion's support for cost centres include a list of cost centre types with values that can be set at different levels, including:
 
* an account
 
* a package
 
* a service
 
* a cardline.

Service providers subscribing to the Cost Centre module(s) are provided with a version of the standard Emersion Invoice Template that will present cost centres. This is included in the cost of the module.

Service provider's with a custom template, or one with [[Admin/My_Invoice_Template/Invoice_Designs|specific design settings]] may need to be modified by Emersion to support cost centres. The cost to modify any invoice templates to support cost centres is quoted separately to any fees that apply to subscribe to the Cost Centre module.

== Cost Centre Precedence ==

[[file:new_home_sm.jpg|900px]]
When a cardline is created, the system will check whether cost centres are being used by the service provider. In all cases, the precedence is from most specific cost centre (card line level) up to the least specific (account level).
 
 
 
# If a cost centre is found for a cardline, the cardline cost centre will be used.  If no cost centre applies to the cardline, the system will look at the service.
 
# If a cost centre is found for a service, the service cost centre will be used. If no cost centre applies to the service, the system will look at the package.
 
# If a cost centre is found for a package, the package cost centre will be used. If no cost centre applies to the package, the system will look at the account.
 
# If a cost centre is found for an account, the account cost centre will be used. If no cost centre applies to the account, no cost centre applies.
 
 
 
While this precedence cannot be overridden, the values can be overridden on unallocated cardlines by users with the permission to do so.
