What's the difference between "Use employee allocations" and "Override with employee allocations"?

Issue

I'm setting up the allocations for an employee. But I don't understand how "Use employee allocations" differs from "Override with employee allocations".

 

Explanation

You would use "Use employee allocations" when you are using a partial account in the pay code and a partial account for the employee allocations (Allocations tab). 

Use "Override with employee allocations" when you want to use the employee allocation GL account and you do not want to use a partial account.
