AC196 - Activity Time Reconciliation

Use AC196 (Activity Time Reconciliation) to reconcile time posted to the
Activity Management system with the time record history in the Payroll system.
You can reconcile Payroll amounts and hours with amounts and hours posted to
the Activity Management system. The reconciliation is accomplished by
comparing the ACTRANS (Activity Transaction) file with the PRTIME (Employee
Pay/Hours History) file using the object identifier as the key. The program
produces activity journal entries to correct any variance between Payroll time
history and Activity Management estimates.

Transactions created in AC196 are not billable, however, since the PRTIME
file does not have all the fields required for billing. The journal entries
are edited to ensure that the activity, account category, and account are
valid for the activity you are creating the journal entry for. If changes are
required to the time records, you can make the changes in Payroll or, if the
changes affect Activity Management only, you can make them in AC40.1 (Journal
Entry).
