AC420 - Budget Variance

Use this program to report on the variance between activity budgets and
actuals. The program reads the Activity Master and Activity Budget files for
activity group base amounts. If the activity has a non-base currency, the
program reads the Activity Currency Amount files for both the actual and
budget amounts. (Units actuals and budgets are always maintained in the
Activity Master and Activity Budget files.)
