You are allowed to enter up to 100 GL Account IDs to split the line items cost (or set as default for the work order), along with a percentage of the cost to go to the GL account. The total percentage on this window must total 100 before you can save your changes. You can always close the window, losing your changes, even if you have not set the total percentage to 100.

If there was a valid GL Account ID on the Work Order, the total percentage will automatically appears in the grid as 100%. Add another GL Account ID using the blank bottom line if you would like to make a split.

 

Use a right click menu, within the GL Account ID field to remove the splits.
