Sage 100 Contractor - SCM Phase codes and Bid items

Sage Construction Mgmt. setup master cost code advice on setup for sync with Sage 100 contractor.

In Sage Construction management, cost codes have up to 4 Tiers, Tier 1 Division, Tier 2 Major, Tier 3 Minor, and Tier 4 sub minor.

In sage 100 Contractor the cost codes have 2 Tiers, Tier 1 Division, Tier 2 Cost Codes.

My question is related to land development, we have Phases, 1- Land Acquisition, 2 - Consulting (soft costs), 3 Finance (soft costs), and 4 - Hard costs.

Our hard costs are pretty straight forward: we have CSI major Divisions set up in "Divisions" and then the associate cost codes in the cost codes section.

I'd like to avoid using "Phases" to organize the soft costs and Hard costs. I'd be interested to see or hear how other companies are structuring the codes.

SCM has some nice user guides and examples that show this by use of "internal Division" which i believe is equal to "phases" in Sage 100 contractor.

Question, does anyone have any experience with this structure setup, good or bad, otherwise? Any advice?
