Valid combinations of To and From posting options

The calculations and the journal entry creations function the same way when the From and To post options are reversed. This information is valid for budgets and for actuals.

For interest allocations, the selected options must be a From post option of Consolidate and a To post option of Split. Only a single override can be set up. You cannot set up multiple overrides for an interest allocation.

This table shows valid combinations and the next steps to perform based on the selected posting options.

Post from option Post to option Post from transactions Post to transactions
Consolidate Retain Consolidate the calculated post to transaction amounts and generate the Post From transaction.

Follow-up setup:

In the From Mapping tab, specify the fields in the Single Override section. These fields specify the accounting string to use for the post from transactions if different from the source address.

See Setting up a single override in an allocation line.

 For each derived source address, calculate the amount based on the source percentage and generate the Post To transactions.

Follow-up setup:

In the To Mapping tab, specify the fields in the Single Override section. These fields specify the accounting string to use for the Post To transactions if different from the source address.

See Setting up a single override in an allocation line.
Consolidate Compute Consolidate the calculated post to transaction amounts and generate the Post From transaction.

Follow-up setup:

In the From Mapping tab, specify the fields in the Single Override section. These fields specify the accounting string to use for the Post From transactions if different from the source address.

See Setting up a single override in an allocation line.

 For each derived source address, calculate the amount based on the compute statement and generate the Post To transactions.

Follow-up setup:

In the To Mapping tab, specify the fields in the Single Override section. These fields specify the accounting string to use for the Post To transactions if different from the source address.

See Setting up a single override in an allocation line.

Create and assign the allocation line compute statement. See Creating allocation line source compute statements.
Consolidate Split Consolidate the calculated post to transaction amounts and generate the Post From transaction.

Follow-up setup:

In the From Mapping tab, specify the fields in the Single Override section. These fields specify the accounting string to use for the Post From transactions if different from the source address.

See Setting up a single override in an allocation line.

 For each derived source address, split the derived source amount into multiple weighted Post To transactions based on the Multiple Override setup.

Follow-up setup:

In the To Mapping tab, specify the fields in the Multiple Override section. These fields specify the accounting strings to which the source amounts are being split to and the weight value for the split.

See Setting up multiple overrides in an allocation line.

For the other dimensions, complete the fields in the Single Override section. Use the Single override section specify an element to use for the Post To transactions when it is different from the source address.

See Setting up a single override in an allocation line.

Create and assign the summary or group weight compute statement. See Creating allocation line weight compute statements.
Split Split For each derived source address, split the derived source amount into multiple weighted post from transactions based on the Multiple Override setup.

Follow-up setup:

In the From Mapping tab, specify the fields in the Multiple Override section. These fields specify the accounting strings to which the source amounts are being split to and the weight value for the split.

See Setting up multiple overrides in an allocation line.

For the other dimensions, specify the fields in the Single Override section. These fields specify an element to use for the Post From transactions if different from the source address.

See Setting up a single override in an allocation line.

Create and assign the summary or group weight compute statement.

See Creating allocation line weight compute statements.

 For each derived source address, split the derived source amount into multiple weighted Post To transactions based on the Multiple Override setup.

Follow-up setup:

In the To Mapping tab, specify the fields in the Multiple Override section. These fields specify the accounting strings to which the source amounts are being split to and the weight value for the split.
