Defining Adjustments › Performing Overhead Distribution

Performing Overhead Distribution

Overhead distribution gives you the ability to:

• Distribute charges for a shared resource
• Retrieve an overhead amount from existing CA PMA Chargeback database records
• Distribute overhead charges in relation to the current charges in the targeted summary record
• Debit the original CA PMA Chargeback records accordingly
• Select distribution targets based on user-defined criteria

while maintaining auditability based on the creation of Overhead Charge records.

The Overhead Distribution algorithm used to accomplish the above objectives is:

Overhead Charge = Overhead Amount/Sum of Charges  *  Current Charge
