DMS-12744

This feature enables buyers to use cost elements of a cost group in the line-item formula of a sourcing event. Buyers can configure cost elements as rollup terms and use the rollup value of the cost elements in the line-item formula.

Some tenders require cost breakdowns for buyers to better decide on what is the most convenient quotation. Buyers were mostly using spreadsheets attached to the tender to collect and analyze that information. This was due to lack of a capability to flexibly reference cost terms from the different cost groups and use them in formulae.

Buyers can now create insightful line-item-level calculations based on cost breakdown data to determine a supplier's competitiveness in various cost areas. This streamlines the process for selecting suppliers when cost is a key issue.
