Overview:

Cost Categories exist as a way to group Activities into custom categories, providing another layer for reporting and analysis. Categories are shown in the Contract Forecast screen between Work Centres and Activities.

This field is required when creating activities, but if your company does not want to use the field, a general category can be used for all activities.
