AC10


AC10.1 - Activity

**Form Purpose
Use Activity (AC10.1) to define and maintain activities. Activities identify
the actual tasks being performed for the activity group or overall project
defined in AC00.1 (Activity Group). An activity can represent services,
channels, customers, products, and so on. For each activity, you can associate
resources defined in AC03.1 (Resource). A resource is a business data element
used to track additional information about the activity, such as the source of
cost or employee hours worked.

You must define an activity before you can define activity budgets and post
transactions.

AC10.3 - Activity Asset

**Form Purpose
Use Activity Asset (AC10.3) to define and maintain the parameters to transfer
a completed activity or activity/account category to the Lawson Asset
Management system to track as an asset. This process is referred to as
capitalization. You can transfer activities to one asset or multiple assets.
For example, you are constructing a new building consisting of several
activities. When the activity, or entire project, is completed, you can
capitalize the project and track it as an asset.

Note You can only use AC10.3 if you use both the Lawson Activity Management
and Asset Management systems.

**More Information
Before you can capitalize an activity, the following must be complete.

- All transactions posted to an activity.

- The account category associated with the activity must allow capitalization
(Use AC06.1 (Account Category Assignment) and select Yes in the Cap field.)

- The activity status must allow capitalization. (Use AC02.1 (Status) and
select the Cap field. You assign that status in AC10.1 (Activity).)

- Asset or asset report information must be set up in the Activity Management
system using AM15.1 (Single Invoice Interface) or AM18.1 (Repair Invoice
Interface).

- An asset template must be defined in AM12.1 (Addition Template).

You can combine multiple activities or account categories into one group to
track as an asset by defining a Combine code. To combine multiple activities
or account categories, the following must be identical for all the activities.
Assign the same combine code, asset template, asset description, asset repair
information, hold code, and asset group on this form and all the activities
and account categories must have the same accounting unit, company, and
currency code.
