If there is not an allocation offset defined, where does the offset occur by default?

In the context of the Profitability and Cost Management Cloud (PCMCS), if there is no allocation offset defined, the default behavior is for the offset to occur at the source. This means that when an allocation is executed without a specified offset, the system will automatically allocate the costs or revenues back to the originating point or source of the data. This is essential for maintaining consistency in the financial data and ensuring that the allocations are tracked accurately.

Allocating at the source allows for a straightforward tracking of financial movements and ensures that all costs are accounted for properly before they flow to other areas of the business. This behavior is a built-in feature of PCMCS, which simplifies the allocation process when offsets are not explicitly defined by the user.
