Use Allocation Keys in General Journals

You can allocate an entry in a general journal to several different accounts when you post the journal. The allocation can be made by quantity, percentage, or amount.

To set up allocation keys

  1. Choose the Lightbulb that opens the Tell Me feature. icon, enter Recurring General Journal, and then choose the related link.
  2. Choose the Batch Name field to open the General Journal Batches page.
  3. You can either modify allocations on an existing batch in the list or create a new batch with allocations.
    • To create a new batch, choose the New action, and go to the next step.
    • To change the allocations of an existing journal, select the journal and go to step 7.
  4. In the Name field, enter a name for the batch, such as CLEANING. In the Description field, enter a description, such as Cleaning Expenses Journal.
  5. When you are done, close the page. A new, empty recurring journal opens.
  6. Fill in the fields on the line.
  7. Choose the Allocations action.
  8. Add a line for each allocation. You must fill in either the Allocation %, Allocation Quantity, or Amount field. You must also fill in the Account No. field and, if you are allocating the transaction among global dimensions, the global dimension fields.
  9. If you enter a percentage on a line, the amount in the Amount field is calculated automatically. These amounts have the opposite sign from the total amount in the Amount field in the recurring journal.
  10. After entering the allocations lines, choose OK to return to the Recurring General Journal page. The Allocated Amt. (USD) field is filled in and matches the Amount field.
  11. Post the journal.

To change an allocation key that has already been set up

  1. Choose the Lightbulb that opens the Tell Me feature. icon, enter Recurring General Journal, and then choose the related link.
  2. On the Recurring General Journal page, select the journal with the allocation.
  3. Choose the line with the allocation, and then choose Allocations action.
  4. Change the relevant fields, and then choose the OK button.
