Cost Pool Groups are used to define the process for calculating actual indirect cost rates for a Legal Entity. The results of the calculation process can optionally be used to post Cost Pool allocations to the general ledger and to update actual indirect cost rates for cost structures associated with the Cost Pool Group.
Since the current version of Unanet Financials does not support the ability to post inter-company transactions, the Cost Pools defined for an individual Cost Pool Group are limited to a single Legal Entity.
This screen is available to users having the Administrator or GL Admin role.

Using this screen, you can manage the details of a cost pool within a particular Cost Pool Group. The information supplied is later used to calculate and post indirect rates and cost pool allocations. The allocations can be based on a specific percentage breakdown or calculated based on ratios of various amounts or hours posted to organization/account combinations.
At least one Pool and one Base entry are required.
See the Cost Pool Calculation screen for more information about how this information is used in the calculation process.
