Multiple Assignment of Investment Measures
Use
Sometimes it is not possible to assign an investment measure or an appropriation request clearly to a single program position. Therefore, the system allows you to assign one investment measure or appropriation request to multiple program positions. You use percentages to determine how the distribution is made. You enter these distribution percentage rates in the master record of the investment measure or appropriation request.
Make sure these percentage rates always total to 100%.
Features
In standard reports, an investment measure that is assigned to multiple program positions appears under each of the positions to which it is assigned. The system displays the budget, plan and actual values for the investment measure broken down according to the percentage rates used to assign it.

Assignment to Several Programs
Multiple assignment is not limited just to different program positions in one investment program. You can assign an investment measure to program positions in several different investment programs. However, these investment programs must all be in the same approval year. For example, you cannot assign an investment measure to a program position in investment program INVEST/1998 and to investment program INVEST/1999 at the same time.
Assignment to multiple program positions cannot be used at the same time as budget distribution, and vice versa (refer to
In the master data transaction for program positions, you are limited to making 100% assignments. Multiple assignment of investment measures or appropriation requests is not possible here. You can only make multiple assignments in the master data transactions of investment measures or appropriation requests.
