Flat dollar budget - How do you get the summary to show the flat dollar and remove allocated dollars

Content

We are setting up a new Workforce Compensation plan and need to budget a flat dollar amount (our other plans are given a budget that is a percentage of salaries).  The budget is given as a set dollar but it doesn't show in the summary section of the worksheet all the time (if you show all reports it does but not if you show only direct reports) and then when we allocate money to individuals those dollars aren't taken away from the budgeted dollars.  It still takes a percent of salary and takes that from the budget.

I find a lot of information on what the flat dollar budget is and what the compensation worksheet can do but does anyone have better documentation on HOW to create the plan and exactly how to distribute a flat dollar budget?
