Spread the value of a summary time period to its base time periods or to the first parent or first child of the parent time period
Spread values among children and parents proportionally, based on existing distribution
Spread values based on the weekly distribution of a quarter, which could be 4-4-5, 5-4-4, 4-5-4, or None (as set up by the budget administrator)
Temporarily lock the values of certain cells while spreading data over time periods
Spread values for different time periods using a different spreading rule for each separate time period on the same row or column dimension. For example, FY2013 can have formula fill, and FY2014 can have flow.
Notes
