Create Pool Links
Use this screen to create the cost and base account/organization combinations that were entered on the Manage Cost Creation Setups and Manage Base Creation Setups screens.
On the Manage Cost Creation Setups and Manage Base Creation Setups screens, you can use wildcards to designate the accounts and organizations that compose your cost pool setup. You also enter the associated allocation and variance combinations. After entering this data in the setup screens, use the Create Pool Links screen to create the different combinations. After you create the combinations, you can review and fine-tune them, if necessary, on the Manage Cost Pools screen, using the Pool Cost and Pool Base subtasks. You cannot use this screen to delete or modify cost pool information; you can only create new combinations that were entered in the setup screens. To make modifications to the combinations, use the subtasks of the Manage Cost Pools screen.
Use this screen whenever you enter new account/organization combinations in either the Manage Cost Creation Setups or Manage Base Creation Setups screens. Review the Manage Base Creation Setups and Manage Cost Creation Setups screens and run this process each month to incorporate any additions or modifications to the account/organization structure in the pool structure.
The Last Create Pool Links Run Date field is editable. For example, if you delete rows on the Pool Cost or Pool Base subtasks of the Manage Cost Pools screen, you can modify the timestamp and use the Create Pool Links process to restore the rows.
