Carryover Threshold
Input a percentage of carryover that your consortium agrees will be considered an excessive amount.
Should a member, or members, exceed this carryover percentage upon certification of their Q4 report, they will be flagged as non-compliant with the AB 1491 legislation. One year of non-compliance does not carry a penalty. However, should the same member, or members, have two consecutive years of non-compliance the consortium may agree, by majority vote, to reallocate an amount that does not exceed the carryover to other members.
A consortium does have the ability to opt-out. To do so, simply toggle the carryover threshold button to the off position.
