Creating/Changing Cost Center Weightings

Prerequisites

You change cost center assignments to adjust the weighting applied.

Weightings are used if positions and organizational units have more than one cost center assignment, during one period of time. This can happen, for example, if two departments share the cost of one position. In these types of situations, weightings identify the percentage of costs to be charged to each cost center.
