Pour certains ministères qui ont recours à des systèmes de comptabilité analytique pour obtenir des renseignements par activité, il existe une solution de rechange acceptable à la classification de chaque opération. Ces ministères ont la possibilité d'imputer d'abord les dépenses à un compte d'attente pour les activités de chaque programme, et de répartir ensuite ces dépenses au moyen d'une pièce de journal, entre les différentes activités.
