What is the Cost Center and how do I use it?

The Cost Center is a logic unit that enables you to split linked accounts for different business units.

After you define the separation of the linked accounts, you can view the system from the Cost Center perspective. This enables you to see the cost for different Cost Centers, and filter Cost Centers to view a number of their costs together.

How to configure the Cost Center

1. In Anodot Cost, click on your username in the top right corner, and then select Account.
2. Click the Cost Center tab.
3. Enter the Cost Center name (optionally, you can add a Cost Center code if you have one).
4. Select the relevant linked account that should be under this Cost Center. Note that each linked account can be only under ONE Cost Center.
