To create a cost model rule

1. In Management > Linguistic Tool Setup > Cost Model Setup > Cost Model Rules, click Add.
2. Specify the name of the rule in the General Information section.
3. In the Condition Configuration section, you specify the condition(s), if any, under which the line item charge or discount will take place. Specify the following:
   • Condition - Choose Project Cost based on price per word (if the charge or discount is conditional, depending on the project cost) or No condition required (if the charge or discount does not depend on project cost).
   • Value - If you specified a condition, specify the value that will cause the condition to be true. For example, if the cost model rule specifies a 10% discount for any project costing more than $25,000, then the value you specify here is 25000 (do not use currency symbols or commas).
4. In the Action Configuration section, select whether the rule is for a charge or discount, whether it's by a percentage or a flat rate, and what the numerical value of this charge or discount is. For example, if the rule is providing a 10% discount, specify discount, percentage, and 10 (do not use a percentage sign, currency symbols, or commas).
5. Click Save.

   You can now use the rule for a line item charge or discount in a cost model.
