When allocating incomes and expenses, the system posts to specific accounts in the receiver companies depending on the account classification and account type setup in the chart of accounts of the sender company.
When posting an allocation, the system will use the account classification and account type attached to the allocation account and search for a specific account defined in the receiver company under the Default Accounts by Profit & Loss or Default Accounts by Balance Sheet (depends on the type of account classification) to create a journal voucher for allocation in the receiver company. If no account is defined against the same account classification and account type the system will then fall back to the default accounts setup.
You must attach an account classification for all accounts which will be used for allocation entries.
