Ledger allocation Basis method

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 283

Hi,

I would like to use the Ledger allocation on the basis formula where :

  • In My Source account Telephone expenses “400001” with Business unit “100” and Department “104” posted.
  • These $100 expenses I want to allocate to different Business units (100,101) and Department (106,107).

3 - Basis is based on the sales revenue amount of the different departments financial dimension

Rent expense is $100, GL 400001-100-104

Business unit 100 balance for the Sales Revenue account is 1000, GL 310100

Business unit 101 balance for the Sales Revenue account is 2000, GL 310100

Then the Telephone expense account should be debit 33.33$ for the Business unit 101 department 107 financial dimension , debit 66.67$ for the Business unit 100 department 106 financial dimension.

But i am getting ledger allocation like below, please provide me knowledge on this

    Hi Vinod,

    Can you try whether it makes a difference if you enter a date interval code in your rule?

    In addition, can you double check differences in your setup with one of the sample allocation rules in the MS Contoso environments? In the USMF demo company there is an Advert rule that makes use of the basis rule as well.

    Might be the case that something has been overlooked.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig
