Hi,
I have a couple of questions about d/Epm Cost Allocation module.
1. It's possible to allocate actual data? The Parameter configuration report allows us to select, from the data source (and driver) tab, as a version actual elements but this is not possible with Step and Level execution, where only planning elements (budget, forecast) are available. So apart from creating an actual version that works like a distinct planning step (whatever this means...) how can allocate actual data?
2. Parameters can be defined only for a base account. From time to time we encounter customers that have got a detailed chart of account with many accounts that need to be allocated. Apart from transforming the predefined account structure (not always feasible), it's possible to iterate the allocation for all accounts of a category account (aka choose a consolidated account)?
3. An allocation phase can be part of a more global planning process. How can we call the execution of the allocation from an external (e.g. application engine) routine in a setup parametric way (for example including the clean data parameter available in the level execution as default)?
I'm really interested in your suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
Alberto
