Creating compute statements

Use this procedure to create formulas to determine the weights or ratios when calculating recharges for multiple entities.

When the recharge calculation option for a source is set to Split Using Compute, then you must define and assign an accounting entity compute.

  1. Select Intercompany Billing > Transfer Pricing Allocations > Recharge Transactions.
  2. Open a recharge.
  3. Click the Sources tab.
  4. Open a source where the recharge calculation option is set to Split Using Compute.
  5. Select the Split Compute field to show Custom Compute.
  6. Click Create.
  7. Specify this information:
    Custom Compute
    Specify the name of the custom compute.
    Description
    Specify a description for the custom compute.
    Effective Date
    Specify the date the custom compute goes into effect.
  8. On the Editor tab, select Compute.
  9. Specify the Field Name, Default Label, Field Type, Size, and Decimals.
    We recommend that you follow the field size of the field being referenced. For example, if retrieving a General Ledger Total balance, you set the size and decimal to 20 and 2 respectively.
  10. On the Definition tab, specify a formula.
    To reference a custom total in a compute, see Referencing custom total in a compute to setup the formula.
  11. Click Save.
