To Distribute Cost Sharing:
A single row is generated on distribution list for each budget period where cost sharing has been incurred. A Source/Account must be added for each row, and the amounts must resolve the Total Unallocated to zero to pass the validation requirement. The percentage field is not required, but may be entered as a reference. If you wish to distribute the amount for a budget period to more than one source, use the [+Add Cost Sharing] button to enter a new line in the list. If only one line is needed per budget period, begin the distribution by clicking in the row you wish to maintain.
To edit the budget period: click in the budget period field; you may select a different, existing budget period. Use this option to re-use existing rows within the list before adding additional rows, if desired.
To enter a percentage: click in the percentage field to activate it; manually type in a numeric value. This entry is not required and will not perform any calculations. This field is intended to be a reference.
To enter a source account: click in the field to activate it; manually type in the information your institution uses to identify the responsible party for the expense. (a code, account, or name such as Department, PI, University, etc.)
To enter an amount: click in the field to activate it; type in the new value for this source. Note that if the amount is less than the total for the period, the difference will aggregate in the Total Unallocated field at the bottom of the list and must be allocated to clear the validation and mark the budget complete.
