PA: Define Burden Costing RulesDescription: Use the Burden Costing functionality to define indirect cost elements (burdens) and the way they should be calculated. You define burdening costing by defining Burden Bases (bases of expenditures that should be burdened), Burden Cost Codes (burden elements), Burden Structures (combinations of bases and codes), and Burden Schedules (burden rate definitions).
Project Billing Super User > Setup > Costing > Burden > Cost CodesDescription: Burden cost codes represent the types of costs that you want to allocate to raw costs. You can use burden cost codes for internal costing, revenue generation, and billing. You can also use burden cost codes to report and account for on burden cost recovery components in Oracle Projects.

Project Billing Super User > Setup > Costing > Burden > StructuresDescription: Burden structures group cost bases for a given use, and specify what types of raw costs are included in each cost base, and what burden costs are applied to the raw costs in each cost base. Define a new structure that will include all 6 burden codes including Overheard.

Project Billing Super User > Setup > Costing > Burden > SchedulesDescription: Use the Burden Schedules window to define burden schedules. You must set up and compile burden schedules for each business group. The schedule name must be unique within each business group. Burden schedules are shared among operating units defined by the burdening hierarchy. If organization burden multipliers are not explicitly defined in the Define Burden Schedule window, they will default from the next higher level organization in the hierarchy. Define a new Burden Schedule for SEO projects, which will include the rates for the original 5 burden codes plus Overhead.
