Enter a percentage between 0.0000% and 100.0000%. Enter the percentage of the main client's expenses that will be distributed to the specified split matter. The total percentage for all split matters can exceed 100%; however, the percentage for an individual split matter cannot exceed 100%.

A popup calculator is available when editing this field. The "<" and ">" keys can be used to increase or decrease the percent one at a time.

Note: If another split matter has the Remainder option selected for expenses, you will not be allowed to enter a percentage that makes the Total Expenses figure exceed 100%.

Note: When the Perform Split Billing program is run, both the units and the dollar amounts will be split using the percentages entered in the Expenses field for each split matter. When the total percentages are less than 100% or exceed 100%, the units of the expense transactions will be split using these percentages so that the total number of units of the resulting transactions will not equal the number of units on the original expense transaction.

For example, let's say client 400.00 is the main client and is also set to receive 50% of the expenses. Client 400.01 is set up as a split matter and is to receive 25% of the expenses. Therefore, only 75% of the expenses are allocated to a split matter. Client 400.00 has one transaction in work-in-process for 10 units with an amount of $100.00. After the Perform Split Billing program is run, client 400.00 will have one transaction with an amount of $50.00 (.50 x $100.00) and 5 units (50% of 10 units). Client 400.01 will have one transaction with an amount of $25.00 (.25 x $100.00) and 2.5 units (25% of 10 units). This gives us a total of 7.5 units, or 75% of the original 10 units.
