Understanding the Specifications for Advanced Variable Numerator Allocations

To compute advanced variable numerator allocations, you must set up specifications for the following:

  • Source. The amount to be allocated.

  • Basis. The numbers used to establish the percentage of the source amount to be allocated.

  • Destination. The business unit or account in which the allocated amounts are written.

  • Offset. The business unit or account in which the offset amounts are written.

You use the Advanced Variable Numerator Specifications program (P09123) to set up the specifications. This program stores information in the Advanced Variable Numerator table (F09123).

The Print Advanced Variable Numerator Definitions report (R0123A) provides a list of allocations and their source, basis, and destination specifications. The R0123A report reads information from the F09123 table, as well as the Advanced Variable Numerator Business Unit Override table (F09123A).
