Bug Fixes

  • Correct the "Internal Error" that would sometimes display when users would convert Requisitions to Purchase Orders and/or when users processed Payables to Disbursements.

Improvements

  • Due Security Integration has been implemented and is now available.

    • Both USxS applications have been updated to work with Duo Security Universal Prompt.

    • There are new properties that will need to be set in the environment in order to use Duo Security with the applications. Please see the Duo Security Integration Guide for more information

      • Note- If you host with the Management Council, there is a new VTA Service Broker 'Install DUO MFA' to help setup Duo Integration. This option will only be available in Tanzu.

    • A new flag was added to the User to determine if they should use two-factor authentication when logging into the application.

      • A Mass Change definition has been provided to help quickly set this flag for multiple users.

    • Removed the obsolete "void old checks" option from Disbursement Resequence.

    • 1099 UI Improvements

      • When both MISC and NEC are selected when generating the Printer/Sealer format, separate print files will generate. If a type is selected, but there are no 1099s of that type, two files will still be generated and the file will state "No Results".

      • When processing Submission Type "Correction" a new field/boolean  names "Incorrect or missing PAYEE information" will appear. When this new field id selected, the generated file will fill all amount fields with 0.00 to assist with creating corrected 1099s to submit.

      • All fields on the generated 1099 print forms will be in capital letters regardless of how they have been entered in the application.

      • Reformatted the 1099 print forms to allow for more space for the return address fields.

      • Limit the PAYER's address to only accept 45 characters per line. This will allow the data to fit in the allowable space on the printed documents. 

      • Renamed the button called 'Generate Submission file' to 'Generate'

Patches

  • Specific district patch to correct PO data related to the Disbursements "void old checks" bug.

Bug Fixes

  • Migration Import: The migration importers (Acquisition, Transfer and Disposition) have been updated to force the tag numbers to be migrated in UPPERCASE.

  • Reports: Corrected the Book Value report's exclude parameter to properly generate the report using the value entered by the user.

  • Corrected the capitalization flag when an acquisition is added to an existing item. The capitalization should be recalculated if the acquisition changes the capitalization status for the item.

  • Corrected the capitalization for items that met both the dollar limit and life limit when the capitalization status changed due to updating an acquisition. The UI appeared to set the flag properly but did not.

    • Any district who had items with an incorrect capitalization flag can run the Capitalization Criteria option under the System menu to update their items.

Improvements

  • System>Configuration: The new Migration Import option is the mass load option for non-migrating districts.

  • Core>Configuration: Enable GAAP feature has  been added. This is the replacement for Classic's EISGAAP program.
