Inherit Revenue (this is the default value): Work Centre is set on a Revenue line, and its Cost Lines will inherit Work Centre from it.
Job Work Centres: When creating a budget all WCs on Revenue lines will become Job Work Centres.
Any JWCs from a Job template will also be added when creating a Job.
...
This scenario is more common on a manufacturing type of job, where Work Centre and Activity are not relevant on Revenue Lines when estimating this work .Generic Work Centres like Labour, Materials and Subcontracts are used in the Budget to understand the Cost structure available to complete the job.
For this reason, it is suggested that Work Centre and Activity columns are hidden from the Revenue lines screen using Grid Management (Cost Sheet Revenue Lines). If hidden, the Activity Code and Work Centres will be populated with default values, as they will be later required when creating a Budget. Activity will be populated with the Activity defined in Control Parameter [Quote default Activity code], and the Work Centre will be the default Work Centre from that Activity.
Work Centre column can be hidden from the Cost lines screen using Grid Management as well (Cost Sheet Revenue Popup Lines).
Job Work Centres: When creating a budget no JWC will be added.
Any JWCs from a Job template will be added when creating a Job.
...
Default WC on BOMs items: Work Centre on these BOM items will follow same rules as the other Cost Lines, based on the new setting.
