Define Allocation Structure
If the assessment for each segment is not made with a pre-defined assessment cost element, you can assign the source cost elements to the desired assessment cost element in the allocation structure . During cycle definition, enter the allocation structure instead of an assessment cost element in the segment.
An allocation structure for the assessment consists of at least one assignment, stating the assessment cost element to which the source element is assigned. The original cost elements will already have assignments in the source.
