    About this task

    Expense lines on a demand record track the costs incurred during the demand evaluation process. You can add multiple expense lines to a single demand, but they can only be used for evaluation costs and can’t be linked to cost plans. Only processed expense lines are counted, and their total automatically rolls up to the Demand actual costs field on the demand record.

    Note:
    When a demand is converted to a project, the expense lines remain with the demand, while the cost plans and budget are moved over to the project.
