GCX-ACTIVITY-GRP       Alpha 15                                  AC191   AC45.1
Element: Activity GroupRequired key. An activity group or        ACDR.1
                       activity center is a group of activities
                       related by process or function. An
                       activity group is the highest entity for
                       which you can inquire and report on
                       costs, revenues, and budgets in the
                       Activity Management system.

                       An activity group is set up to budget
                       for, report on, process, and store
                       information common to one or more
                       activities. You must set up an activity
                       group before you can set up activities,
                       budgets, transactions, and inquiries. To
                       collect costs and revenues, at least one
                       activity must be linked to an activity
                       group.

GCX-ACTIVITY           Alpha 15                                  AC191   AC45.1
Element: Activity      Required key. Activities are the          ACDR.1
                       processes or procedures that produce
                       work. Cost objects (products, services,
                       customers, and so on) are the reasons
                       for performing the activity. Activities
                       and cost object activities are used
                       synonymously in the Lawson Activity
                       Management system. Direct costs are
                       posted to activities, and indirect costs
                       are allocated to activities based on
                       activity drivers.

                       Activities are grouped or organized by
                       activity levels. There are two types of
                       activities: "posting allowed" and
                       "summary only." Use posting level
                       activities to budget and maintain all
                       posted transactions. Summary activities
                       or macro activities combine information
                       and balances from lower level activities
                       for reporting and inquiries.

GCX-ACCT-CATEGORY      Alpha 5                                   AC191   AC45.1
Element: Account CategoRequired key. Account categories are      ACDR.1
                       groupings of costs, revenues, or a
                       combination of both used for reporting
                       and inquiries for activities in the
                       Lawson Activity Management system. All
                       transactions are posted to an account
                       category within an activity. You can
                       assign a specific General Ledger account
                       or range of accounts (company,
                       accounting unit, account, and
                       subaccount) that make up the
                       transactions posted to an account
                       category using AC07.1 (Account
                       Assignment).

                       Period-to-date, year-to-date, and
                       life-to-date balances are maintained by
                       account category for activities. Account
                       categories must be assigned to
                       activities before you do any budgeting
                       or transaction processing.

                       unit the transaction was posted to in
                       the general ledger. An accounting unit
                       is a shorthand notation representing the
                       variable level number. The accounting
                       unit must be defined in the General
                       Ledger Names file as a posting
                       accounting unit.
