February 2024 Recap
USAS Releases
Improvements
Created REST Controller for Building Profiles.
Improved the External Authentication process so when configured, the external user must only login using the external provider.
Corrected the report link to work with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) allowing those districts using MFA to use the report link. Users will be required to create a Personal Access Token (PAT) for their user account, which can be done under the Show User Profile option of the Utility menu. Once the PAT has been created a new report link will need to be generated as it will use the PAT to validate the user and prevent the user from having to authenticate before refreshing the report.
Corrected how the Unvoiding a voided disbursement was handled when the item was already paid. If a check has been voided, it will not be eligible to Unvoid if any of the items on that check have been paid on another disbursement. A new pop up confirmation box will appear to confirm action or to cancel and return to the grid.
Informative Message to confirm Unvoid was complete.
Error message due to the items on the voided check being paid on another disbursemetn.
Bug Fixes
Corrected the bug that was introduced with the release v2024.2.0 where the Report Link was broken for basic http authentication which is used by Strategic Solutions.
New Features
Implemented the ability to clone report bundles to allow for sharing the report bundles. Any report bundle that a user can see is eligible to be cloned.
The Admin and USAS-Manager roles already contain the admin_reports permission needed to see report bundles created by other users. If a user with a lesser role needs the ability to clone report bundles that they did not create, the admin_reports permission must be granted.
Created a Requisition Approval Report to show all requisitions currently in the workflow process. The report includes the requisition number, username, action (status of the requisition), timestamp and notes.

USPS Releases
Bug Fixes
Payroll Payment / Employee Dashboard Payroll Payments
Correct error when no default form has been set for printing
Future Pay Amounts - use compensation description as default description of Pay Amount when compensation label is blank
Employee Onboarding - set time zone on all .json formats
This bug was originally seen in Onboarding - causing Compensation dates to convert to the day before the actually saved date (e.g. 2/1/24 was saved, UI displays 1/31/24).
Direct Deposit - YTD total not including error adjustments
Note that any adjustment amounts made before these changes will not be reflected in this YTD AMT on the Fed Tax ADJ record.
Improvements
Future Pay Amounts - When entering a payment record, the description will use the Compensation Label first, if blank, then the Compensation Description, if not blank
Salary Notice - Add option to process by pay group
Leave Balance Report - add ‘Report as of' date
Payroll Payments View Improvements
Add Pay Group Date Range in Payments>Payroll>highlighter view
Make the default form selected the same as the payment printing configuration default form
System>configuration>Payment Printing Config>Select 'Default DD Form'
This will default this form for all printing
Add new warning to Payroll Error Report when a Position with Retirement System ‘None’ is included in payroll
Warning - Retirement Code is set to None for position. This warning will not prevent the position from being paid.
Compensation Print Screen Report - Include custom fields
Accumulations View Improvements
