Budget Allocation

To simplify the process of distributing the budget numbers over periods, you can create distribution keys in the Budget allocation register, which allocate the total over 12 periods, allowing you to account for seasonal variations in your business. The distribution keys work proportionally so that you can distribute your numbers accurately according to the fraction you decide on. If you would like to allocate your budget evenly across all periods you can enter a 1 into all fields, for example, so that the total is distributed as 1/12 every month.

Delete an existing distribution key.

Note! Deleting or editing a distribution key will note have any consequences for budget figures you have entered already. However, you will need to be aware that the numbers do not change automatically. This means that when you edit a distribution key you need to update your budget numbers as well. The easiest way to do so is the re-enter the distribution key. It is thus recommended to be very cautious about editing distribution keys. It is better to create a new one instead.
