Re-enter costs for existing flows in a new process?

Question

Hi,

I created a process and inputted existing flows from a database in outputs. These flows already have costs in the existing processes. Do I have to re-enter costs in the process I created for each flow or OpenLCA will do it automatically (as I linked the flows to the existing process provider)?

Many thanks

Hi, sorry it took a while to reply - costs on the process level are process specific, to reflect that the same product (electricity) can have different costs in different processes, for one given unit -> you will need to enter the costs again. You can copy and paste entire rows for processes, including costs (screenshots from openLCA 1.9).
