Symptom
In APP Manage Allocations, if the receiver rule "variable portion type" is selected, there is no option to use activity types as reference. Only statistical key figures are provided.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud
Cause
This is a missing functionality
Resolution
Unfortunately, APP "Manage Allocations" do not support activity type as restriction for quantity receiver basis yet.
It is in development scope for future, however not yet ready.
There's another APP Create Overhead Allocation Cycles - Cost Centers - Actual maybe helpful there, you can still use 'Activity Quantity' as receiver basis, you can execute this allocation cycle using job template "Actual Overhead Allocation: Cost Centers" via APP Schedule Overhead Accounting Jobs.
But kindly be noticed that "Create Overhead Allocation Cycles - Cost Centers - Actual" and "Manage Allocations" are not same cycles they are not working with each other.
Detailed information could be seen in 2860376 - APP Manage Allocation can't work with cycle created with APP Create Overhead Allocation Cycles - Cost Centers - Actual.
