Definition

With top-down distribution, both positive and negative values may exist in the selected tracing factor. In such cases, you can select one of three algorithms that allow you to influence processing as follows:

  • The algorithm Delete Negative Values sets all negative values in the tracing factor to zero. Processing then continues as usual.
  • With the algorithm Leave Values Unchanged, none of the values in the tracing factor are adjusted. All reference figures are then processed as they are. In this case, it is possible that some values are not distributed. This always happens when the reference values have a total of zero.
  • The algorithm Scale Values scales all values in the tracing factor as follows: The lowest negative value is set to zero and all other values are raised accordingly.

The following example allows you to compare the results of the different algorithms.

Adjusted Tracing Factor

Product    |    Revenue    |    "Delete"        "Unchanged"        "Scale"

P1        40        40        40        90

P2        20        20        20        70

P3        -50        0        -50        0

Result

Product    |    "Delete"        "Unchanged"        "Scale"

P1        66,66=100*40/(40+20+0)        400=100*40/(40+20-50)        56,25=100*90/(90+70+0)

P2        33,33=100*20/(40+20+0)        200=100*20/(40+20-50)         43,75=100*70/(90+70+0)

P3        0=100*0/(40+20+0))        -500=100*-50/(40+20-50)         0=100*0/(90+70+0)
