Use

In addition to the standard distribution keys included in the standard system, you can also define your own distribution keys to allow for variances such as seasonal fluctuations.

For each distribution key, you define which periods receive distribution amounts, and for each period, how much of the total amount the period receives.

Features

The following functions are available:

You can create a distribution key. One possibility is to use an existing distribution key as a reference and to adjust it as needed.

You can change a distribution key. Note that if plan data was already distributed with this key, this data is not affected by these changes.

You can display a distribution key.

You can only delete a distribution key if it is not used in existing plan tasks or planning layouts. You cannot restore a distribution key once it has been deleted.
