New Canned Report Options
Have you noticed the Reports menu growing? Several options have recently been added to the available canned reports on the Reports menu.
Why? Reports that were previously available in the Reports Manager as template reports have been recreated as a canned version and added to this menu to greatly improve performance. Report performance has increased by up to 99.98% with the change! The Audit Report has also been upgraded to allow more sort and filter options for narrowing down down results as well as a new look to help make it easier to read.
| Report | Improvement |
|---|---|
| Financial Detail | 99.98% faster |
| Purchase Order Detail | 95% faster |
Budget Summary | 68% faster |
| Distribution Detail | 91% faster |
| Audit Report | New version with visual improvements and additional sort options |

The following terminology is used to determine where in the implementation process the entity is currently at:
Implementing: The ITC is running test imports and balancing reports on the entity. The district and ITC are working to schedule dates to begin dual processing and go live.
Paralleling: The entity is inputting all production transactions into both Classic and Redesign.
Live: The entity is using Redesign for production processing; no parallel processing is being performed; Classic is available in 'read-only' mode.
Streamlining the Receipt Process
Are your building secretaries sending you paper Receipt records which then requires another staff member to enter this information? Save time and streamline your process by sharing this template spreadsheet with your building secretaries to fill out instead! Not all fields on the template spreadsheet are required so you can customize the spreadsheet while leaving the required fields included. Please refer to the Receipt Import Criteria. This allows the building secretary to email the completed csv spreadsheet to the treasurer's office where it can be reviewed. The treasurer's department can then choose the file to import into USAS-R and by clicking the Import button found on the Receipt grid, the process of posting your receipts is complete.
