Introduction

Adding the costs of a process allows identifying and recording the values associated with the execution of activities, which contributes to a more accurate analysis of performance and operational efficiency.

In SoftExpert Process, costs can be linked to activities and decisions, making it possible to track the flow in financial terms.

As an example, the “Freight” cost will be created. See how to perform this operation:

Adding a cost

Conclusion

With the costs added, it will be possible to associate them with the process, allowing for a clearer vision of the financial impact of each step of the flow.
