Hello,
I am a business central consultant, and I am having difficulty implementing the cost accounting module for a client based on their specification.
I have done a lot of research regarding that, but I am still having some difficulty executing their specifications.
This is their specification
1. they have let's say 3 cost centers (CAD, CAM, MML) and 3 lines of business (Agency, consulting, retail)
2. Now they want indirect operational expenses to be allocated to these lines of businesses equally
This want I did
I transferred the indirect expenses to the chart of cost type.
Then, I transferred the cost centers from dimensions
Then, I created the lines of business as cost objects
Then I created cost allocation cards
These were the rules on my allocation card
Cost center code: CAM
Credit to Cost type: 9900
Lines:
target cost type: 9900 (the end total of the chart of cost type)
target cost object: Agency
Allocation target type: All costs
Static Base: 100, Static Weighting: 0.3333
share: 33.33, Percent: 33.33, Base: Static
I repeated this rule for the other lines of businesses (consultancy and retail).

However, no allocation is done when I run allocation
Can anyone help me with what I am doing wrong and how to do it right?
