USAS-R Releases

...

• Performance improvements were made to posting pending transactions to POs and posting invoices.  
  • Posting pending transactions to POs improved 70%
  • Posting AP Invoices improved 44-50%
• Errors related to posting payables were not always being displayed to the user.  This problem has been corrected.
• The EMIS extract has been modified to remove the INFOTECIRN line from the extract file per ODE.
  • Information updated in the EMIS Manual. Specifically page 21 of this section: Organization General Information (DN) Record
  • This info was pulled from the ITC IRN field on the Core > Organization page in USAS-R. The field is still there, but is now optional to populate as it isn't being used for any reporting.
• The following improvements have been made to the Job Scheduler
  • renamed the label "Event Trigger" with "Cron Expression"
  • when scheduling a new job via the Create button on the Job Scheduler grid, the submit button will be disabled unless both fields (Job Type & Cron Expression) are populated.  Previously users would receive an error if both fields were not populated.
  • the grid will now refresh when the job is created to display the newly created job
  • corrected the view/edit display to prevent field labels from overlapping the field value.  The Description field previously overlapped the value of the job's description.
• A new role has been created to grant users permission to modify a specific set of fields on the user record.  The USAS_USER_PROFILE role grants users permission to view the User grid via the System menu option and modify the following fields for any user listed in the grid.  The permissions granted by this new role have been included with the existing USAS_MANAGER role.  This new role should not be granted to users with SYSMAN_USER or ADMIN roles as they already have more permissions than this new role grants.

Bug Fixes

• Earnings Register - not handling refund of deductions in redesign
• Employer Retirement Share - sort default account selection by position number
• ACH PDF Report showing debits when it should not have a debit record created
• Absence / Attendance Import - Parser doesn't correctly handle quotations
• Employee Onboarding - middle name was mapped to both name and legal name
• Attendance Import 
  • USPSR-5520 added a change to the CSV parse to allow for quoted text (i.e. "Pay for 5/20/22, 5/21/22") to be handled.
    • This change has broken the import down stream in processing when certain columns are included on the report but left blank.
  • Revert change to USPSR-5520 on this hotfix. The parser change will be reimplemented on a later release.
• Future Pay
  • Overtime rate is not correct. A change on 6.63.0 defaulted the rate from the compensation in Future Payroll. When the overtime pay type was selected, the rate was not being adjusted accordingly.
• Future Pay / Current Pay
  • Account Selection component will not include any expenditure accounts that are not available on the Position, even if a new account is loaded via Mass Load or Attendance Import. The selection component will be updated to always display the expenditure account if not found on the positions accounts. 
• Specific Pay Accounts were not properly clearing when the Save and New option was used in Future Pay Amount Detail view
• STRS Advance - Advance Position Report does not exclude compensations with stop dates
• Future Pay - Units conversion to a big decimal needs to handle commas
• Future Pay - An exception when converting rate / units allows the gross to be writable
