Multi Purpose

Use this screen to enter the purpose of your trip or the reason that you have incurred expenses.  This screen is generally only used when you wish to break expenses among clients and/or projects and accounts.  You are able to enter up to 4 different client-project/account combinations and assign a percentage to each.   All expenses that are tied to this purpose then will be split by the specified percentages between the combinations for accounting purposes.

Most of the fields and links on this screen are also found on the Single Purpose screen.  For information on these shared fields see the Single Purpose help.

The following field is unique to the Multi Purpose screen and is not found on the Single Purpose screen:

Split%: - Enter the percentage of expenses tied to this purpose to assign to this client - project/account combination.  It used, all splits must total 100.  If all splits are left blank, the system will evenly distribute expenses.

To use the various select list on the upper-right of the screen, first click with your mouse on the line in the client - project/account (lower) section that you wish to effect.  Then make your selection.  The system will update the fields in the line that you clicked.
