INFlow Portal Transaction View Expense Line Splitting

This feature allows the user to “split” one expense line into two or more expense lines. This gives the user the ability to instantly allocate one expense line into multiple business segments.

...

Note

Important: Please fields can be editable based on the INFlow Preferences /wiki/spaces/SFI/pages/838729768 of the subsidiary. Contact your administrator to see if field editing can be enabled for the field you are trying to edit.

Line Split Options
  • Amount – The user manually enters the amount for each new line. The sum of the (Line Split) amounts must always be equal to the total line amount.

  • Percentage - The user enters the percentage of the line amount that will be allocated for each new line. The sum of the (Line Split) percentages must always be equal to 100%.

  • Weight - The user enters a proportion for each new line. For example, if you enter 100, 300, 400 on three lines, the system would allocate the source amount to the destination lines based on the calculated percentage: 12.5% (100/800), 37.5% (300/800), 50% (400/800).

...

Note

Important: Expected behavior for non-terminating decimal percentages for Weight and Distribute line split options.

  • The sum of the new expense lines always need to be equal to the total line amount.

  • The last expense line will be adjusted if there is a decimal amount left unallocated because of non-terminating decimal numbers in the calculations.

    • Weight: (Line Split) Allocated Amount = ((Weight/Total Weight) * Transaction line total) + Unallocated amount

    • Distribute: (Line Split) Allocated Amount = (Transaction line total / Number of lines) + Unallocated amount

Example:

Line Amount: 1000

Line Split Method: Distribute

Split Lines into: 3

 

Line 1 (Line Split) Allocated Amount  = 333.33

Line 2 (Line Split) Allocated Amount  = 333.33

Line 3 (Line Split) Allocated Amount  = 333.34
