| # Allocation relations setup You can maintain allocation relations between dimensions, carry out allocation procedures according to the relations, and integrate the resulting amounts into budgets or actual analyses. Cost allocation structures that use the same set of destination dimensions often occur multiple times. Therefore, you can define allocation rule sets to collect rules of different types for the automatic generation of allocation relations. You can create an allocation net based on: Allocation keys, as described in Allocation keys setup. Default allocation relations, as described in Default allocation relations setup. Consumption rules, as described in ATMS Code - Customers. An allocation key is a scheme to create allocation relations automatically if the source of the allocation relations is known. Default allocation relations serve as a template for allocation relations with repeating occurrences regarding source and destination dimensions. Consumption rules are used to generate outgoing allocation relations from a retrograde source according to the roles that you define.
