Management of Allocation curves : Netvisor

This help instructs you on how to use allocation curves for the accrual of purchase invoices and sales invoices in Netvisor. You can open allocation curve management by selecting Financials > Bookkeeping settings > Allocation curves. Allocation curve management is available with the company user profile. Adding a new allocation curve requires the KP role and editing rights to basic accounting functions in function-specific rights.

Allocation curves can be used for the accrual of a purchase invoice and a sales invoice, allowing you to allocate the invoice to the desired months. The View has a few allocation curves created in advance.

The "Periods" field defines how many months the invoice is allocated to when you select an allocation curve for the invoice.
Select the New button when you want to create a new allocation curve.
Edit the name of an existing allocation curve as needed.

For example, a quarterly allocation curve allocates the invoice by quarter. You can create your own rules based on the same principle.

Make sure that the total of the distribution ratios is 100%.
If needed, select the setting distribute percentages evenly when updating, in which case the program rounds the allocations so that they total 100%.
