Description: This format can be used to update the corporate, office, and project related lab fees for lab test methods stored in the RT_GEO_TEST_METHOD table.

Overview: The Geo_Lab_Fees format includes the Lab_Fees section, which populates the DT_COST table with fees for geotechnical test methods.

Geotechnical test methods (stored in RT_GEO_TEST_METHOD.TEST_METHOD_CODE) are associated with DT_COST records through RT_GEO_TEST_METHOD.EUID = DT_COST.OBJECT_EUID.

To update corporate fees, set DT_COST.COST_TYPE to 'geolab_corporate_fees'.

To update office fees, set DT_COST.COST_TYPE to 'geolab_office_fees'.

To update project fees, set DT_COST.COST_TYPE to 'geolab_project_fees'.

Columns in the Geotech_Lab_Fees format use different tables for their reference value lookups. The EQuIS EDD (Electronic Data Deliverable) Description file includes which tables are used for the reference value source.
