what's different between values are percentages and values are amount in setup allocation schedule by using fixed allocation

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

In NetSuite, when setting up an allocation schedule using fixed allocation, the difference between using percentages and amounts is in how the allocation is calculated. When you use percentages, the allocation is based on a proportion of the total value. For example, if you have an expense of $1000 and you want to allocate 25% to Department A and 75% to Department B, the system will allocate $250 to Department A and $750 to Department B. This is useful when you want to distribute a value based on a certain ratio or proportion. On the other hand, when you use amounts, the allocation is based on specific dollar values. For example, if you have an expense of $1000 and you want to allocate $200 to Department A and $800 to Department B, the system will allocate exactly those amounts, regardless of the total value. This is useful when you want to distribute a value based on specific dollar amounts. In both cases, the allocation is fixed, meaning it does not change based on changes in the total value. However, the way the allocation is calculated differs based on whether you use percentages or amounts. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
