Cost center overview
Cost centers are folders or collections of accounts. Each cost center can contain one or more accounts.
You can nest cost centers to match your organization's financial structure.
Restrict a user's access by assigning them one or more topmost cost centers. The user can't access anything above these selected cost centers.
You cannot edit your topmost place, cost center, or building.
For example, if your topmost place is Government, you can't change any of the properties for the Government cost center.
