"""Add a new cost schedule
A cost schedule is a group of cost items which typically represent a
cost plan or breakdown of the project. This may be used as an estimate,
bid, or actual cost.
Alternatively, a cost schedule may also represent a schedule of rates,
which include cost items which capture unit rates for different elements
or processes.
As such, creating a cost schedule is necessary prior to creating and
managing any cost items.
:param name: The name of the cost schedule.
:type name: str, optional
:param predefined_type: The predefined type of the cost schedule, chosen
from a valid type in the IFC documentation for
IfcCostScheduleTypeEnum
:type predefined_type: str, optional
:return: The newly created IfcCostSchedule entity
:rtype: ifcopenshell.entity_instance.entity_instance
Example:
.. code:: python
schedule = ifcopenshell.api.run("cost.add_cost_schedule", model)
# Now that we have a cost schedule, we may add cost items to it
item = ifcopenshell.api.run("cost.add_cost_item", model, cost_schedule=schedule)
