Applying Quick Distribution Rule
The Transaction Line Distribution SuiteApp enables you to enter a line-level distribution rule for lines while entering a transaction.
You have the option to use a different quick distribution rule for every single transaction line.
The following fields automatically populate in the Quick Distribution Rule window when a distribution template is selected. When a distribution template is not applied, you must enter a value for the following fields:
-
Dist. Type
-
Dist. Rate Type
You can only add one quick distribution rule per transaction line.
To apply a quick distribution rule:
-
Enter a transaction using the SuiteApp. For procedures, see Supported Transactions in Transaction Line Distribution.
-
For vendor bill, purchase order, check, or credit card charge, click the Expenses and Items subtab.
For vendor credit or expense report, click the Items subtab.
-
In the Expenses or Items subtab:
-
Click the expense or item line you want to have a quick distribution rule applied.
-
Click Enter Quick Distribution. The Quick Distribution Rule popup window appears.
In the Quick Distribution Rule popup window:
-
In the Transaction Lines section, check or clear all the expense or item lines to which you want to have this quick distribution rule applied.

When adding more lines, you must consider the following:
