Cost Centers and Accounts#
The Allegra system can manage efforts in the form of “working time” and “material costs”. Efforts are assigned to accounts which in turn belong to cost centers.
In Allegra, you can plan and track labor efforts and material costs for non-labor expenditures, such as equipment and consulting. Labor efforts are stored in the database in units of hours. Material costs are booked in the currency set for the respective workspace.
Accounting can be enabled or disabled for each workspace. A single account can be used by many workspaces. A project can have any number of accounts.
An account belongs to exactly one cost center. With the help of cost centers, you can group accounts.
