The Cost Sharing screen provides a Distribution List section used to allocate any cost sharing committed in the prime or subaward budget to the appropriate source (account). If the system parameter (Force Cost Sharing Distribution) has been set to require distribution, the KC budget cannot be set to complete status until cost share amounts are distributed. A hard data validation error will appear onscreen to ask you to distribute cost share expense. Distributing cost sharing means providing account numbers or codes to indicate the responsible party(s) for supporting the expense. This section allows you to distribute the cost share by dollar amount to specified source account(s) and specified project periods. A summary of committed cost share by individual budget periods and a project total can be displayed. If any cost sharing was manually entered in the Subaward Details table, the amounts are included in the distribution list; the ‘view subaward cost share’ button provides the details for each subaward so that you may add cost sharing rows to the list to designate the subaward portions.
