There are certain cases in which two allocation keys must be offset against each other in order to correctly allocate an operating cost element. You can define deductions for the allocation key of individual operating cost elements.
Differences from the standard scenario:
The operating cost element is distributed across fewer units during operating cost allocation.
Prerequisite
You are familiar with the “Standard Allocation” allocation scenario
Procedure in the FM Portal

The reduced allocation key is used in operating cost settlement.
