Calculating allocations

You can calculate the allocations after they were released. You can run the program, Allocation Calculation (SL110), as many times as needed to get the correct results.

If the results are not what you expect, then you can unrelease the journal and unrelease the allocation and maintain the allocation in Allocation Detail (SL10.1). Once you make corrections, release the allocations and then rerun this program.

Follow these steps to calculate allocations:

  1. Access Allocation Calculation (SL110).
  2. Specify a job name and description.
    Note: It is important to view and edit this report before interfacing allocations. You can perform this procedure repeatedly until you get the correct results.
  3. Define the parameters of which allocations that you will calculate. Use these guidelines to specify the field values:
    Allocation Group

    One option (Allocation Group or User Analysis Group) is required. This is the allocation group name. This allows you to process the released allocations assigned to the allocation group. SL110 can be processed for an allocation group or a user analysis group.

    User Analysis Group

    One option (Allocation Group or User Analysis Group) is required. This is the user analysis group name. This allows you to process the released allocations assigned to the user analysis group. You can process SL110 for an allocation group or a user analysis group.

    Allocation

    This is the allocation name. You can process SL110 for all released allocations or up to eight allocations within an allocation group or a user analysis group. If all the allocation fields are blank, then all released allocations will be processed for the group specified.

    Period

    This is the period of the allocation journal.

    Blank = current period

    Fiscal Year

    This is the fiscal year of the allocation journal.

    Blank = current year
