CA15


CA15.1 - Allocation Control

**Form Purpose
Use Allocation Control (CA15.1) to view and release multiple allocations. The
allocations you release will calculate the next time you run CA110 (Allocation
Calculation).

The allocation name, allocation type, step value, last posted period and
year, and status display.

The following are allocation statuses:

- Ready indicates the allocation is not calculated or processed for the
current period, but the current period is in the valid date range and is
selected for processing.

- Calculated indicates the allocation was calculated using CA110 (Allocation
Calculation) and that transactions exist. You must run CA190 (Allocation
Interface) or CA195 (Budget Allocation Interface) to transfer allocation
transactions to the General Ledger system.

- Processed indicates the allocations were transferred to the General Ledger
system. The last processed period displays is the same as the current period.
Once you run CA190 (Allocation Interface) or CA195 (Budget Allocation
Interface), the allocation cannot be recalculated using the same journal entry
number.

- No Detail indicates the allocation header is defined, but no detail lines
are assigned to the allocation.

- Unselected indicates the current period is not one of the periods chosen
for processing. Select periods by choosing the New Alloc button in CA10.1
(Allocation).

- Out of Range indicates the current period is not within the beginning and
ending date range. Select the beginning and ending date by choosing the New
Alloc button in CA10.1 (Allocation).
