  Correct Any Errors: If you find that the percentages do not add up to 100%, correct the values. Ensure that all relevant records are included and that their percentages are accurately calculated.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about how to adjust the allocation percentages, refer to the SAP documentation or user manuals specific to your module (e.g., Oil and Gas, Project Systems).
