Errors within the Allocation Calculation Report
The Allocation Calculation report (Activities>Processing Allocations) is a good tool for determining the errors encountered during calculation. In the recipient section of the report, there is a column containing error codes. The following is a list of the error codes that may occur along with their descriptions:
Error Code |
Description |
A - Account Combination |
The transaction entry generated is not a valid account code combination. |
D - Discontinued Code |
One of the codes in the transaction entry has a discontinued status. |
E - Effective Date |
The effective date (same as the document date) is outside the date range set up by the Administrator (Organization>Organization Preferences>Entry Dates). |
M - Missing Segment(s) |
The transaction entry lines with revenue or expense type GL account codes have missing segment codes. |
O - Opening Balance Adjustment |
The transaction entry generated has an effective date (same as the document date) that is in a closed year. Adjusting Opening entries must be created for the transaction lines. |
R - Required Account Assignment Missing |
Transaction lines with non-revenue or non-expense type GL account codes were set up with Required Account Assignments (Maintain>Chart of Accounts Codes), and those required segment codes are missing and not available. |
The following is a list of the information codes that may occur along with their descriptions:
Information Code |
Description |
ECA - Entry Codes Assigned |
Transaction lines that were edited by including entry codes. |
P - Pool Entry shown for Error Resolution |
Pool transaction lines are only displayed when transaction entry line errors occur and the Session Status is “Batch to Suspend (BS)”. Used to clarify that this transaction is a Pool transaction line and not a Recipient transaction line. |
RAA - Required Account Assigned |
Transaction lines that were edited by applying Required Account Assignments. |
SYS - System Generated Rounding Adjustment |
Rounding adjustment lines display when a system generated rounding adjustment was made. 0% in the percentage field indicates that the amount was not part of the original allocation; just an adjustment to the final allocation. |
XCAP - Cap Already Exceeded |
Indicates that the transaction line was adjusted to 0 based on established “Use indirect cost limit cap” rules. See Indirect Cost Rate Cap Rules. |
