Shopping with a Cost Center

How to Shop Using a Cost Center

Overview: When your account is linked to one or more cost centers, your product browsing, cart, and checkout are automatically filtered to match your assigned cost center.

Steps:

  1. After logging in, select your cost center from the dropdown in the header.
  2. The product listing updates automatically to show only allowed products.
  3. Add products to your cart — each cart is linked to one cost center.
  4. At checkout:
    • Only delivery and billing addresses assigned to your cost center will appear.
    • Select your delivery address, billing address, and department (user group).
    • If any cart items are not allowed under your selected cost center, they will be flagged and removed automatically before checkout proceeds.
  5. Complete your order.

Tips:

  • If you have no cost center assigned, the full catalog is shown and no address filtering applies.
  • Your cart header displays the cost center name so you always know which context is active.
