3. Enter the total invoice amount to distribute, then click OK. The template splits that total across the line items by their saved percentages.
- Example: a $1,400 invoice is divided automatically across each line item per the percentages set when the template was built.
4. Adjust any of the resulting amounts if you need to.
5. Click the Close icon to save.
> Note: Invoice amounts won't appear on the Operating Statement until they're posted.
