As it says in the documentation (http://slurm.schedmd.com/accounting.html):

,---------------------------------------------------------------------
| Accounting records are maintained based upon what we refer to as an
| Association, which consists of four elements: cluster, account, user
| names and an optional partition name
`---------------------------------------------------------------------

So, yes, associations are must.  The ideas is that a given user could
work in multiple groups or projects on a given cluster, so you need the
associations to keep track of how the CPU time was used.

Cheers
