      <Paragraph>If the allocation net is
		consumption oriented, you can create allocation relations according to
		consumption rules. Outgoing budget and actual allocation relations from a
		retrograde source can be generated following user provided rules.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>The aim is to have
		quantities on the allocation relations in tight relation to the performance
		quantity on the destination, which enables you to backflush resource and
		process requirements from the source dimension to the destination dimension by
		means of the retrograde calculation.</Paragraph>
      <ProcedureList>
         <ListIntro>To set up the consumption rules allocation relations, take
