Distribution of Liabilities According to Expenses

Use

The distribution of liabilities according to expenses is the complete solution within the posting transfer. You have more options for distributing liabilities here than with Posting to Master Account Assignment .

The system uses the payroll table CODIST for the distribution of liabilities, which contains information about the distribution of the payments (in percentage terms) to the individual entities. The liabilities are distributed using the entries in this table.

If the liabilities do not have an entry in the CODIST payroll table (and so are not distributed), they are posted completely to the master cost center with this solution.
