Combine Activity Interface (AM15.4)

Use Combine Activity Interface (AM15.4) to combine activities with other activities. Activity records can also be put on hold or removed from hold. In the AM15 programs you can override all interface information. The AM15 programs can release interface records one at a time into asset records. You can then maintain asset records using the AM20 programs.

DISTRIBUTION SPLIT: For distribution lines with combined codes attached, you must split the distribution lines before they are combined. You can select two split options, Derive or Copy. Select Derive to take the existing combine code and concatenate a sequential number for each new distribution line created. Use this option to create new assets with items from each distribution line. Select Copy to take the existing combine code and copy it to all of the new distribution lines that are created. Copy is useful if you want to create a single asset with multiple items from the split distribution line.

Note: You are not able to reset distribution lines back to their original state after the Change action is performed. To return lines back to their original state, you must manually combine the records that have been split. This will combine multiple distribution lines into a single asset when records are released.

Using this program, you can maintain multiple activities from that contain user-defined combine codes for creating one asset. Activity records with the same user-defined combine code allow you to combine multiple activities and/or distributions to create one asset. However, all asset information to be combined must all be the same.
