Provide the ability to distirbute flat amount craft based liabilities across all the jobs worked by an employee within the pay period

Craft based flat amount fringes are calculated for each combination of craft, class and craft template worked under by an employee during the pay period.  This can lead to an overstatement of the liability if an employee works under the same craft, but more than one class and/or job using a different craft template within the same pay period.  To avoid overstatement, a pay period limit is commonly used, which results in a correct liability amount but also limits distribution of that amount to the first job (or jobs if sharing a craft template) that the employee worked under during the pay period (i.e. other jobs worked do not receive a portion of the fringe expense).  This effectively overstates the fringes expensed on some jobs and under states the expenses on others - would like a way to process these flat amount fringes that distributes the expense proportionally across a jobs worked by the employee during the pay period
