Account category posting options
When you use an activity pool, you can select posting options that determine the level of detail at which allocation transactions are created in post-to activities. Three posting options are available:
| Posting option | Description |
|---|---|
| Consolidate | This posting option creates one allocation transaction for each post-to activity and account category defined in the allocation setup. |
| Pool | This posting option creates multiple entries for each post-to activity. The account categories in the pool are substituted for the account category defined for the post-to activity in the allocation setup. |
| Detail | This posting option creates multiple entries for each post-to activity and account category. Allocations are calculated separately using each account category in the pool, and each transaction is posted to the post-to activity and account category in the allocation record. |
Note: Because the Pool and Detail posting options are based
on the account categories in the allocation pool, they are available
only with activity-based pools.
