STEP 1
Use transaction code : KSV1
Create Actual Distribution Cycle : Initial Screen
Remark
Distribution allocations are used to the primary costs of a cost center. The information about the original cost element will be transferred to the receiver.

ERP Client Languages
When creating an Distribution Allocation, the texts must be added also in the other language ERP (both cycle name and segment name and description). To do that you must logoff, enter in the language requested (e.g. DE), and modify (KSV2) the Distribution Allocation, adding the names and descriptions in the local language.

STEP 2
Enter the cycle code and the starting date and ![]()
Validity Date
The starting date determines the earliest validity date of the cycle. If a similar cycle already exists you can make a copy from the reference cycle and modify it afterwards. You can display the existing cycles by selecting the match code.

Codification Rules
For the name codification consider CCCCDV where CCCC is the company code and for DV is for Distribution Cycles, whenever a company is harmonized on SYMPA standards.
STEP 3
- Enter the validity date (to last day of the year)
- Enter the description of the cycle
- Check the Indicator "Iterative"
- Check the Field Groups "Object Currency"

STEP 4
Click 
Segment Name
Segment Name according to Assessment Allocations Rules should be equal to Sender Cost Center inside the segment (exceptions: Insurance Allocations as driver is the type of insurance cost and therefore Segment Name = Cost Element codification).

STEP 5
Enter the segment code and description
Update the tab "Segment Header" :
- Assessment Cost element or Allocation structure
- Sender values:
- Sender rule = Posted amounts
- Share in % = 100 %
- Receiver tracing factor for Insurance & IAS19 :
- Receiver rule : Variable portions
- Var.portion type : Actual Statistical Key Figures
- Scale Neg. Tracing Factors : No scaling

STEP 6
Update the tab "Senders/Receivers"
- Enter a cost center or a group of cost center (group in the standard hierarchy)
- Enter a cost element or a group of cost element (in the hierarchy ZRCS-CNP). It is not necessary when an allocation structure is used
- Enter the receiving cost center or group of cost centers

STEP 7
Go to the tab "Sender Values"
No change needed

STEP 8
Only when the Variable portions => Actual Statistical Key Figures have been chosen in the tab "Segment Header"
Go to the tab "Receiver Tracing Factor" & enter the Stat. Key fig.

STEP 9
Go to the tab "Receiver Weighting Factors"
Enter the receivers depending on the receiver tracing factor chosen in the tab "Segment Header" :
=> It should not be necessary to update this tab when a statistical key figure is used

STEP 10
Create a new segment by clicking ![]()
STEP 11
Create Cycle Run Group
Cycle Run Group Codification Rules
To proceed with Cycle Run Group creation please follow the next documentation:
STEP 12
Save 
STEP 13
Create segments with reference
Enter the name of the segment you want to copy from and define a name for the new segment. Press
Now you can modify the appended segment.
Receiver Cost Center Modified
When the receiver cost center is modified, the
inside the tab
is deleted by the system and a new percentage must be entered.
Total Factor Percentage
Total of Factor Percentage after the change should total 100:



STEP 14
Change segment in other language
The new segment is firstly created with connection language “EN”. If the name of the segment should also appear in another language, logoff, enter in the language requested (e.g. DE), and change (KSV2) the segment name in the local language.
