What it is

The Allocated Resource Name is a display name which cost is being allocated to in a Data Generator-Calculated Split Cost Allocation. The Allocated Resource Name is used to understand what the cost is being allocated to in charges where the service provider is allocating costs to something other than the charge's ResourceID, as is the case for allocated charges.
