AC41.1 - Resource Journal Entry

Use AC41.1 (Resource Journal Entry) to create journal entries for activity
resources. You can define personnel and equipment resources using AC03.1
(Resource). You can define employee, asset, and vendor resources using HR11.1
(Employee), AM20.2 (Additions and Adjustments), and AP10.1 (Vendor)
respectively. You can assign resources to activities using AC03.7 (Resource
Assignment).

If the Accounting Unit Detail flag on AC00.1 (Activity Group) is set to Yes,
the general ledger account fields are required on all Activity Management
transactions.

You can edit unreleased transactions you entered using this form.
Transactions must be released before they can be posted using AC190 (Activity
Post). Resource transactions are one-sided and do not need to balance. They
only post to Activity Management.

This program calculates the transaction amount based on the number of units
and the standard costs for the resource. The transaction entry and import
programs check to see if the amount you type exceeds the budget if the AC Bud
Flag option is set to Yes for system AC in Gl01.4 (System Codes).
