ACPOOLHDR is the Allocation Pool Header table in Lawson Activity Management (prefix POL). It is indexed by POOL-NAME (POLSET1). It is related 1:1 to CMPUTE and 1:M to ACPOOLDTL. It is updated by AC131 and AC32.1 and referenced by AC121, AC123, AC130, AC20.1, AC20.2, AC20.3, AC20.4, AC20.5 and 5 more. The table has 21 fields, 1 index and 2 documented relations.

About ACPOOLHDR

This file contains header information about allocation pools from AC32.1 (Allocation Pool).

Fields (21)

Column = COBOL field name without the POL- prefix, hyphens → underscores. Derived fields are computed by the application and are not stored.

Field / column	Type	Description & values	Updated by
`POL-POOL-NAME` PK POOL_NAME	Alpha 12	This is the name assigned to the pool (amount to be allocated). A pool consists of posted monetary amounts or statistical units found in ranges of activities and account categories or ranges of companies, accounting units, accounts, and subaccounts specified in AC32.1 (Allocation Pool). Pool balances can be accumulated on a period, year-to-date, or life-to-date (activity pools only) basis. A pool is attached to an allocation in AC30.1 (Allocation) or to individual allocation lines in AC30.2 (Multiple Pool Allocation).	AC32.1
`POL-DESCRIPTION` DESCRIPTION	Alpha 30 (Lower Case)	This is the description of the pool.	AC32.1
`POL-STATUS` STATUS	Numeric 1	This is the pool status. `1` Active `2` Inactive	AC32.1
`POL-SOURCE-CODE` SOURCE_CODE	Alpha 2	This code indicates whether the pool is activity-based or general-ledger-based. `AC` Activity Management Pool `GL` General Ledger Pool	AC32.1
`POL-TRANS-TYPE` TRANS_TYPE	Alpha 1	This field indicates the type of values to be allocated: amount or units. `A` Amount `U` Units	AC32.1
`POL-CUM-BASIS` CUM_BASIS	Alpha 1	This field indicates the period of time over which the pool is allocated: period, year-to-date, or life-to-date. `P` Period-to-date `Y` Year-to-date `L` Life-to-date	AC32.1
`POL-ACTIVITY` ACTIVITY	Alpha 15	This is the activity for which account categories are accumulated in the allocation pool.	AC32.1
`POL-MATRIX-LIST` MATRIX_LIST	Alpha 12	Selected account categories for activities with this attribute are accumulated in the allocation pool.	AC32.1
`POL-ACTIVITY-GRP` ACTIVITY_GRP	Alpha 15	Selected account categories for activities from this activity group are accumulated into the allocation pool.	AC32.1
`POL-FR-ACCT-CAT` FR_ACCT_CAT	Alpha 5	This is the beginning of a range of account categories to be accumulated into the allocation pool.	AC32.1
`POL-TH-ACCT-CAT` TH_ACCT_CAT	Alpha 5	This is the end of a range of account categories to be accumulated into the allocation pool.	AC32.1
`POL-GROUP` GROUP	Alpha 15	Selected account categories belonging to this group are accumulated in the allocation pool.	AC32.1
`POL-COMPUTE-NAME` COMPUTE_NAME	Alpha 12	The compute statement name is the name assigned to an arithmetic equation created in RW50.1 (Compute Statement). The equation is used to determine the amount of the pool to allocate.	AC32.1
`POL-COMPUTE-INFO` COMPUTE_INFO	Alpha 1	—	—
`POL-COMPANY` COMPANY	Numeric 4	This is the General Ledger company used when evaluating General Ledger data names in the compute statement.	AC32.1
`POL-ACCT-UNIT` ACCT_UNIT	Alpha 15	This is the accounting unit used when evaluating General Ledger data names in the compute statement.	AC32.1
`POL-FR-ACCOUNT` FR_ACCOUNT	Numeric 6	This is the beginning of a range of accounts used when evaluating General Ledger data names in the compute statement.	AC32.1
`POL-TH-ACCOUNT` TH_ACCOUNT	Numeric 6	This is the end of a range of accounts used when evaluating General Ledger data names in the compute statement.	AC32.1
`POL-FR-SUB-ACCT` FR_SUB_ACCT	Numeric 4	This is the beginning of a subaccount range used when evaluating General Ledger data names in the compute statement.	AC32.1
`POL-TH-SUB-ACCT` TH_SUB_ACCT	Numeric 4	This is the end of a subaccount range used when evaluating General Ledger data names in the compute statement.	AC32.1
`POL-ALLOCATED` ALLOCATED	Signed 18.2	This is the amount to be allocated.	AC131
