Allocation Overview

Allocations are used to distribute dollar amounts to various receiving accounts based on predefined percentages. You can only allocate to propertiescompanies to which you have propertycompany access rights. When creating an allocation, you complete the following tasks:

  1. Establish a calculation for the distribution.
  2. Select the accounts and propertiescompanies that are affected by the allocation process.
  3. Establish the amounts that are to be distributed to each account.

Allocations are limited to a percentage distribution. An allocation detail must total 100% before it is saved.

Note

Depending on the applications purchased by your company, allocation related tabs can display from either eFinancials or ePO menus.
