    • History
      Displays the history of the cost attributes that have been assigned to a part in tabular format.


    • Cost Log
      Displays all the cost attributes that are assigned to a part. This tabular list also includes the cost attributes that are deleted.

    The Part Selection dialog box is displayed.
  3. In the Select Part dialog box, enter details of the part to view the cost history.
    The cost history of the selected part is displayed by default. The costs table displays the cost attribute assigned to the selected part along with the cost maturity applied for each of the costs. The best cost is highlighted in bold and green text.
  4. To edit the cost of the selected part, click the Enable Changes icon.
    The fields under New Item become editable.

      Note: If you delete the best cost from the history, the best cost for the selected part will not be available in the E-BoM.
