Ratio Amount
This controls the accounting periods for which transactions are selected from the ratio accounts and used to calculate the ratio amounts. Four options are available:
  • Balance - this option selects all postings up to and including the periods specified during the Allocation Run.
  • Change in Balance - this option selects transactions entered since the previous allocation run, up to the periods selected during the allocation run.
  • Period - this option selects the transactions for the period, or period range, selected during the allocation run.
  • Year to Date - this option selects all postings made during the current year, up to and including the periods specified during the allocation run. 
Ratio Basis
This determines how the allocation ratio transactions selected are used to calculate the allocation amount. Three options are available:
  • Fixed Amount - using this option the ratio amount becomes the target posting amount.
  • Absolute Percentage - using this option the ratio amount is treated as a fixed percentage. This percentage of the source amount becomes the target posting amount.
  • Relative Percentage - using this option the ratio is calculated from the ratio transactions selected, based on the analysis codes referenced in the filter selection criteria. Each analysis code identifies a target for the allocation e.g. a department. The proportion for that analysis code is calculated as the value of the ratio transactions for that code, to the total ratio amount. See What are Allocation Ratios? for a worked example. 
Ratio Actual/Budget
The ledger on whose transactions the ratio calculation should be based.
