Lots of irons in the fire!

Our development team has plenty on their plates. Along with the improvements and enhancements we are continually making in the USAS-R and USPS-R projects, a few of our developers are working exclusively on our upcoming Redesign inventory and work-flow projects.
Inventory
Our inventory project will be a separate application in the redesign with a slightly different look than what you are accustom to seeing in USXS-R. Inventory will use a different version of Vaadin so the color scheme and screen formats will be somewhat different. We're very pleased with how the redesigned version turned out... so much so that we wanted to provide you with a special sneak peak! We would also like to thank the members of our inventory focus group for providing such helpful feedback the past several months. The projected beta release of Inventory is scheduled for July 16th and will be available through August 16th which is when we officially release the production version of the application. SSDT will be working on the documentation and providing training to ITC support staff this summer before the production version is released. Look for a feature article and video on the Inventory project in the SSDT Newsletter later this summer.

When adding a compensation, you have to add a Code.
A new field called Code has been added to compensations. A patch was written to default the compensation code value. The patch will default the code on existing compensations to the start date of the compensation in MMYYYY format followed by a dash and a random character. For example, 032021-A. If the Contract has no Start Date entered, the Code will show only a Letter. For example, A 
The code is modifiable. If you change it, it will only allow alphanumeric characters and dashes. The code is also unique per employee/position. If a position has multiple compensations, those compensations CANNOT have the same code. The Code field is a required field.
- When creating a New Contract for employee's, an unique Code will be given to the New Contract after Activating in Compensations. The Code will resemble
- When creating a Contract or Non Contract Compensation manually the Code must be entered manually. The Code can be any combination of letters and numbers and can include hyphens. The code has to be unique for a given position, ie: position 1 can not have 2 compensations with code set to "FY21", but position 1 can have a compensation with code set to "FY21" and position 2 can also have a compensation with code set to "FY21"

Please view the Current List of Districts & Status to see a comprehensive list of school districts along with their ITC, implementation status and the wave they are scheduled to migrate from Classic to Redesign.
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.
