Cost Status requires manual change to get lease chargeback agreements to work
In order for lease chargeback agreements to work properly, it requires going into the Cost Wizard, finding the scheduled costs, and then changing their Cost Statuses to AUTO-CHARGEBACK. This is cumbersome since someone would need to search for the scheduled costs and change each of them from AUTO-RECURRING to AUTO-CHARGEBACK since they are monthly/quarterly/annually/etc recurring costs.
A mechanism to flag the recurring costs to default to AUTO-CHARGEBACK would save time and the potential for error.

Thanks Octavian,
This could conceivably be for any business rule/cost category.
If there is a chargeback agreement for a particular lease defined, with a Cost Category indicated (for example RENT-BASE RENT), the idea is that any cost scheduled for that lease with that particular cost category (RENT-BASE RENT) would be automatically defined as AUTO-CHARGEBACK rather than AUTO-RECURRING.This would allow the Chargeback Cost Wizard to pick up the costs approved from the Cost Wizard, and generate the appropriate chargeback entries.

Thank you very much for this idea, Mel. Please add more details on what kind of business rules your customer(s) would use to automatically determine which costs to be charged-back? (ex. Cost Category / Account ?)
Please provide more information, so we can analyze your suggestion if it gets more votes.
