Define activity group and activity relationships

You can define a relationship between information in a non-Lawson system with activity groups and activities in Project Accounting. You can use this to interface information from the non-Lawson system to Project Accounting without modifying the source system data in the .csv files you prepare.

  1. Map an Old Activity Group name to an activity group using Activity Group Relationship (AC28.1).
    Note: You can also map an Old Activity Name to an activity in Activity Relationship (AC29.1) or an Old Account Category name to an Account Category in Account Category Relationships (AC29.2).
  2. When you run Activity Interface (AC500), Attribute Interface (AC510), or Resource Interface (AC520), the data in the interface file associated with the Old Activity Group name is automatically populated using the activity group you defined in Activity Group Relationship (AC28.1). Data in the interface file associated with the Old Activity name is automatically populated using the activity you defined in Activity Relationship (AC29.1).
