How to automatically find elementary costs entered manually in the Rate Analysis module

Here's a technical support request that I wanted to share with our users

request
Can I pinpoint elementary costs entered manually in a Price List and identified with an (F) marker in addition to existing items marked with (E)

Answer
In the Rate Analysis editor, insert/create an Elementary Cost (E) and NOT a Free Entry (L).

Elements (such as for example: Water, Worker, etc.) used in the various rate analysis must be price list items, with a: rate code, an item description, unit of measurement and unit rate.

Example:
- rate code: A.01.001
- description: Water
- unit of measurement: m3
- unit price: 0.93
-> see explanatory image


The Elementary Costs (E) , can be:
a) created directly in the Rate Analysis editor -> see image
In such case, the Rate Analysis editor, create a new Elementary Cost (E) and NOT a Free Entry (L). Elementary Costs will also be available in the Price List editor too.
b) acquired:
- from the Price List editor of the same document -> see figure
- from the Price List editor of a reference document -> see the explanatory image
