Bug Fixes
Fixed an error (ClassCastException) when processing Billings/Payments.
A caching problem was introduced related to reconciling/unreconciling disbursements due to the performance improvements with disbursements on v2024.22.0. This was corrected on v2024.22.1 as well as properly setting the status on the disbursement when it was reconciled or unreconciled. The correction also included a patch to ensure the disbursement status was correct for any disbursements reconciled/unreconciled since the 2024.22.0 release.
Improvements
Created a listener in the code to rerun interrupted account change jobs so if an account change job is running and the application is restarted, upon restart, the in progress job(s) will resume.
Disbursement performance improvements ( average % )
Posting payables 58%
Void disbursement 66%, void disbursement and associated invoices 48%
Unvoid 47%
Reconcile/unreconcile 99%
Resequence 38%
Additional improvements have also been planned
Improve the flow of mass processing AR payments to allow user to remain on the Billing grid in order to continually post AR payments. The AR Billing grid now has an optional checkbox
that when selected, the application will remain in the Billing area after posting payments instead of the system navigating to the Payment grid.

Bug Fixes
An issue with Mass Change being used to update Payroll Item maximum values was corrected. Situations where employees did not have an existing value in the ‘max fields’ were causing an error.
An update was made to the pay slip service so the system will now retrieve pay slips from the File Archive (if they existed before generating a new PDF in USPS). So, if going to ESS and the View/Print Payslip option is selected, you should see a difference in the way the pay slips look. Those pay slips from ‘Classic’ payrolls will pull from the File Archive. Those pay slips from ‘Redesign' payrolls, will be generated from history and use the form defined in USPS.

When viewing or editing a leave record in the grid, all 3 leaves are displayed. If an employee is ineligible for a given leave type, the heading for that leave type will state INELIGIBLE. If the employee is ineligible for all 3 leave types, a warning will be displayed stating the employee is not eligible for leave.
The Leave Unit is required and an error will occur if saving the record and all three Leave Units do not exist.
All three Leave Units must all be set to Daily or Hourly. If saving the record and all three Leave Units are not all set to Hourly or Daily, an error will occur.

Reports>W2 Reports>W2 Report and Submission>Reports, Forms, Submission, and XML will now filter and not include a City or OSDI that has zero Total Gross, Applicable Gross, and Amount Withheld.
If any of these values are greater than zero but other values are zero, a warning will be added to the W2 Report. The Payroll Item will be included in the Report, Forms, Submission, and XML outputs.

Bug Fixes
When users created acquisitions prior to the Item’s acquisition date, this resulted in the detail/summary schedule of change in fixed asset reports not matching when an acquisition was in a prior fiscal year. Corrected the acquisition amounts on GAAP reports where the item’s acquisition date is before the acquisition's date.
Corrected the error thrown when attempting to select from the pending items drop down when creating a new item. Prior changes to correct grid loading problems didn’t properly handle the pending item drop down and the recent addition of the PO/Invoice/Received date fields exposed the problem.
Improvements
Added the following dates to the Pending Items grid: purchase order date, invoice date and received date. These dates can be added to the grid via the MORE button and are sortable and filterable.
FYE Bundle improvements
All reports generated in the bundle will now include the report options page.
The Fiscal Year Ending Balances Report has been improved to
Sort the fund, function and asset class values in sequential order
Generate with the correct report filename. Previously it was called Closing Balance Report, it is now named “Fiscal Year Ending Balance Report”

Absence Management Related
Check for missing absence reason id when importing leave from Absence Management and check for missing absence reason id in the Absence Reason data sync grid 1073 16.0
Absences pulled into ESS from AESOP are showing on the absence reason grid but weren’t showing up on the calendars or leave requests area in ESS. It was determine there was a missing absence reason ID from AESOP but the message wasn’t appearing on the absence reason grid. This has been fixed so the ‘processed message’ field should state “absence reason does not contain an absence reason ID’.
Miscellaneous
Email service updated to handle a user with no USPS employee assigned 1050 15.0
If the ADMIN role (who isn’t a USPS employee) changes an approver on the grid, they receive an error since this user isn’t an employee of the district. That shouldn’t prevent them from making the change so we fixed this.
