Enter Budget Distribution Percentages

This procedure is used to enter the percentages used to distribute budget values from one budget level to a lower level.

When these percentages have been entered, the status of the budget distribution templates is raised to 20 (active) in program 'Sales Budget Distr Template. Open' (OSS422). A template must have status 20 to start the distribution.

Before you start

A distribution template must be defined. See procedure Create Distribution Template.
