AC00.1 - Activity Group
Use Activity Group (AC00.1) to define and maintain an activity group.
An activity group represents the highest entity in Project Accounting. Use an
activity
group to organize activities related by process or function for: reporting,
processing rules, budget checking rules, activity structure, security,
currency,
calendar, business line or project type or department.
**Process at a Glance
1. Define your activity group using this form.
2. Use the Main tab to select an account category structure,
base currency, calendar, date range, security code, status, output measure,
budget change order history, invoice audit history.
3. Use the Process tab to identify activity group processing
rules, including how to store balances, how to validate transaction data,
whether to calculate burdens and more.
4. Use the Levels tab to define the activity group structure.
5. Optional. Identify parameters in the Budget, Time and Expense,
Currency, and History tabs.
**More Information
- Use the Main page to define information for the activity group,
such as base currency, calendar, and date range. Use the Category Structure
field to assign account categories to the activity group. Assigning an account
category structure attaches an account category structure with default rules
you can override by posting activity. Once you run posting using this
assignment,
you cannot change the account category structure assignment on this form.
Use the POP button to set up period of performance date tolerances for the
activity group on Activity Period of Performance (AC10.6).
- Use the Process page to define process parameters to determine
how amounts in activities will be summarized and how various validations will
be performed for transactions entered for activities associated with the
activity
group.
- Use the Budget page to define budget edit parameters to prevent
entry of activity-related transactions in other Lawson applications when the
budget is exceeded.
- Use the Time and Expense page to define time and company paid
expense parameters.
- Use the Levels page to define activity group levels to identify
the rules for structuring activities.
- Use the Currency page to define activity group currency parameters,
including report currencies.
- Use the History page to define activity group history parameters
that let you keep an audit trail of changes or deletions made to specific
activity-related parameters.
