Burden Multipliers for New Organizations: How They Are Added to Burden Schedules

The Build New Organization Burden Multipliers process adds burden multipliers to burden schedules for an organization when you add a new organization to your organization hierarchy.

If you don't add the organization to a specific burden schedule version, this process builds multipliers for the organization in all burden schedule versions. It uses the multipliers of the parent organization as defined in the organization hierarchy. A burden schedule version must be active to add multipliers for a new organization.

Run this process:

  • After you create the organization and before you charge transactions using this organization as the expenditure organization.

  • For the parent organization before you run it for the child organization.

If the new organization requires multipliers that are different than the multipliers assigned to the parent organization, you can manually add multipliers for each burden cost code on the burden schedule versions, and then rebuild the versions.

Settings That Affect Burden Multipliers for New Organizations

The process parameter is the new organization for which you want to build multipliers for existing burden schedule versions. Typically you run this process during implementation as part of the Burden Definition setup task list.

Process results are summarized in the Build New Organization Burden Multipliers Execution Report that displays the impacted burden schedules and burden schedule versions.
