Variable Cost

Variable Cost

Variable cost is a value that you assign to a metric based on the values in a numeric column of a data source. The Data Integration Service calculates the variable cost for the metric based on the column or virtual column that you assign to the cost.
Example
As a mortgage loan officer, you need to provide your customers with payment books so that the customers can submit the mortgage payments. You can use a scorecard to measure the accuracy of your customer addresses to ensure the delivery of the payment books. You might want to set the variable cost to the Monthly Payment Amount column for the Address Accuracy metric. Run the scorecard to compute the total cost that the mortgage organization loses if customers did not pay the monthly amount on time.
