Expense GLAs

This tab is of particular importance to the User organization's financial team in that it allows Users to set GLAs for new Services and edit those of existing Services.

To set a Default GLA for Service, click the Picker Icon (image-20240611-141516.png ) in the Set Default GLA field (see above) and select a GLA from the displayed list. This field adds the selected GLA at 100% and replaces any 'Default' type existing GLAs in the Grid above.

Managing GLA Entries

Users can specify GLAs by clicking the image-20240611-141537.png  button located on the 'Expense GLAs' tab. This opens the new Add New Expense GLA form.

From this form, the User can set a single GLA or Multiple GLAs quickly and without having to re-open the form multiple times. There are three fields that can be edited on the table whether the User is Adding a Single GLA or Multiple GLAs.

  • Expense Type - This drop-down allows the User to select the Expense Type of the GLA.

  • GLA - This picker allows the User to select the GLA to associate with the Expense Type.

  • Percent - The number selector allows the User to specify the percent of the Expense Type to apply to the GLA.

Single GLA

The first row of the table is added by default. The User only needs to select the 'Expense Type', 'GLA', and 'Percent' and click the image-20240611-141606.png  button.
