GL Process Allocations window
Processing
Allocation Codes is useful for recurring transactions that split the opposing entries among different accounts.
Start and End Ranges: Allocation Code, Frequency Code, and Period
Use the range fields to define which allocations you want to process. You can include a single item by entering the same value in both boxes. If you leave the default settings all items that meet the remaining criteria set in the window will be included.
The default for both Period boxes is the Current Period as defined in your
fiscal calendar.
If you are generating for multiple periods, the result will depend on whether the Current or Designated option is selected in the Allocation Code window.
• Current: The system will post the generated transaction once, to the date specified at the time the allocations are generated. This is the default option.
• Designated: The system will post one transaction for each period in the range you designate at the time the transactions are generated.
Journal Entry Date
If you are generating transactions for a single period, enter the transaction date you want to use. This will determine the period the transaction posts into. The default for this date is the current system date.
If you are generating transactions for more than one period, the dates used for past periods will be the last date of each of the past periods. For transactions that are generated into the present period, the date used will be the date you enter here.
