2.2.4 Allocation Model Container Pane

To construct a Standard Allocation Model, the Model Details pane allows a single list of allocation rules.

Click on Select Rule button or to open a pop up window that lets you select the rules you want to include in your model. The pop up opens into a shuttle box element with the list of the available allocation rules on the left hand side and the list of the selected allocation rules on the right hand side.

The window has search capability in each of the available and the selected lists, and the search acts as a dynamic search on the list of rules that each list contains. Search capability is provided for Allocation rule name, the folder in which an allocation rule is defined and the Type of the allocation rule.

On launch of the window, the user is directed to the allocation name search field on the available list and the user can perform a search action on available rules to be selected and shuttled into the Selected list, or can directly choose the required available rules to be shuttled into the Selected list. The window gives a feature to shuttle the rules one by one or all at once by using one of the shuttling buttons available.

Once the rules are selected, the user can press OK on the shuttle box window, and the Allocation Model Container section in the Detail screen is populated with the selected rules under this standard Allocation model.
