Implement percentage allocation in Journal Entry

Implement percentage allocation in Journal Entry

Rise Journal Entry supports allocating payroll costs by percentage across accounts. This is useful when employees work across multiple cost centres or business units.

You can set fixed percentage splits at three levels:

  • debit account default
  • department level
  • employee level

Set up percentage allocations

1. Select the payroll instruction

Go to Payroll > Journal Entry. Select the payroll instruction you want to map.

Select payroll instruction

2. Manage allocations

Click Manage allocations, then select the accounts and the percentage for each account.

Manage allocations screen

3. Copy the mapping to other payroll instructions (optional)

To replicate this mapping onto other payroll instructions, click the copy icon at the top of the mapping screen.

Notes
Tip: Copying a mapping is a quick way to apply the same allocation across multiple payroll instructions without setting each one up individually.

Select which accounts should have the same mapping. This replicates the debits and credits, including any overrides.
