Cost Sharing

 

The Cost Sharing Distribution List section of the Cost Sharing tab is used to allocate any cost sharing committed in the budget to the appropriate source (account).  The KC budget cannot be set to Complete status until cost share amounts are distributed (if the Force Cost Sharing Distribution parameter is set to YES.  A hard data validation error will ask you to distribute cost share expense if there is any cost sharing in any period for the budget.  Distributing cost sharing means to provide account numbers responsible for incurring the expense.  This section allows you to distribute the cost share by dollar amount to specified source account(s) and specified fiscal years.  It also displays a summary of committed cost share both by individual budget periods and a project total.
