Understanding the Review Actuals Distribution Component

Use the Review Actuals Distribution component to modify funding distribution information in PeopleSoft Human Resources after you've run the Actuals Distribution process but before posting to PeopleSoft General Ledger using the Actuals GL Interface process (PAYGL02). Use the Actuals Distribution component to change the funding source, but not the total amount. Actuals, including your changes, are posted to PeopleSoft Financials when you run the Actuals GL Interface process.
