Destination Dimensions Allocation Relations (tfcat4121m000)

Use this session to view and maintain the allocation relation for destination dimensions. You can specify range of allocation dimensions based on which the individual allocation relations are generated.

Field Information

Relation

The type of allocation relation.

Allowed values

Budget Year

These relations are used for allocations within Single Dimension Budgets per Year.

Budget Period

These relations are used for allocations within Single Dimension Budgets per Period.

Actual

These relations are used for allocations within Actual Costs.

Period From

The From and To fields define a range of: years for which the allocation relation are applicable.

Note: You must specify this value if the Relation field is set to Actual.
Period From

The From and To fields define a range of: periods for which the allocation relation are applicable.

Note: You must specify this value if the Relation field is set to Actual.
Budget

The budget to which the allocation relation is applicable.

Source Dimension Type

The dimension type to be credited for allocation.

Source Dimension From

The first dimension to be credited from the range of dimensions for generating individual allocation relation.

Note: 
  • The dimensions must be of the Source Dimension Type.
  • This dimension range must be specified alphabetically ascending to avoid empty ranges.
Source Dimension To

The last dimension to be credited from the range of dimensions for generating individual allocation relation.

Source Reference Unit From

The first reference unit to be credited from the range of reference units. If the source dimension use a reference unit, the amount of this reference unit represents the actual cost value of the dimension used by the allocation process.

Source Reference Unit To

The last reference unit to be credited from the range of reference units. If the source dimension use a reference unit, the amount of this reference unit represents the actual cost value of the dimension used by the allocation process.

Destination Dimension Type

The dimension type to be debited for allocation.

Dimension Description

The description or name of the code.

Destination Dimension From

The first dimension to be debited from the range of dimensions for generating individual allocation relation.

Note: 
  • The dimensions must be of the Destination Dimension Type.
  • This dimension range must be specified alphabetically ascending to avoid empty ranges.
Dimension Description

The description or name of the code.

Destination Reference Unit From

The first reference unit to be debited from the range of reference units. If the destination dimension uses reference unit, the amount of this reference unit represents the actual cost value of the dimension used by the allocation process.

Description

The description or name of the code.

Destination Dimension To

The last dimension to be debited from the range of dimensions for generating individual allocation relation.

Destination Reference Unit To

The last reference unit to be debited from the range of reference units. If the destination dimension uses reference unit, the amount of this reference unit represents the actual cost value of the dimension used by the allocation process.

Destination Ledger Account

The destination ledger account to be debited.

Note: This account is a Profit & Loss account with sublevel zero (0).
Ledger Account Description

The description or name of the code.

Destination Position

The position number for the destinations dimension.

Destination Cost Category

The cost category to be debited for generating individual allocation relation. This is used to limit the primary cost amounts. For quantity or percentage based allocation (ie. allocation types that use imported costs) only the cost types related to the indicated category is reallocated.

Description

The description or name of the code.

Destination Cost Type

The cost type to be debited for generating individual allocation relation. This is used to limit the primary cost amounts. For quantity or percentage based allocation (ie. allocation types that use imported costs) only the cost types related to the indicated category is reallocated

Destination Variability

The variable part of the budgeted or actual costs that are debited from the destination dimension.

Base Dimension Type

The dimension type for the base dimension. When using the base dimension type, the allocation process is always based on the actual costs. The allocation across the various destinations is based on the distribution of actual costs on the relevant base dimensions. The actual costs that are already available in the relevant destination dimensions are not relevant for the allocation process.

Base Dimension

This dimension to be used to determine the actual costs/ actual allocations instead of the actual costs / actual allocations of the destination dimension.

Base Reference Unit

The reference unit of the base dimension.

Base Cost Category

The cost category of the base dimension. This is used to limit the primary cost amounts. For quantity or percentage based allocation (ie. allocation types that use imported costs) only the cost types related to the indicated category is reallocated

Hierarchy

The cost hierarchy for the base dimension. The actual costs of the base dimensions are retrieved from the Hierarchical Results - by Dimension (tfcat2550m000) session.

Note: You can specify either a reference unit or a cost hierarchy.
Description

The description or name of the code.
