GRV-ACTIVITY         Alpha 15
Activity             Required key. This is the activity for
                     the total revenue and total loss
                     amounts. Activities are the 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.

GRV-ACCT-CATEGORY    Alpha 5
Account Category     Required key. This is the account
                     category for the total revenue and total
                     loss amounts. Account categories are
                     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.

GRV-COMPANY          Numeric 4
Company              Required key. This is the company
                     number the transaction was posted to in
                     the general ledger.

GRV-ACCT-UNIT        Alpha 15
Accounting Unit      Required key. This is the accounting
                     unit the transaction was posted to in
                     the general ledger. The accounting unit
                     is a shorthand notation representing a
                     location (variable level) in the company
                     structure. The accounting unit must be
                     defined in the General Ledger Names file
                     as a posting accounting unit.
