2019-10-16 USAS Completed Work Review

Releases Since Our Last Meeting (09-18-2019)

USAS-R v7.24.0 Release

  1. Corrected a problem generating the report link for users that have a dot notation in their username.  For example if the username is "smith.joe" the report link did not work correctly.  The parsing problem has been corrected.

  2. AP Invoice improvements: 

    1. The PO number field is now visible.

    2. Corrected date shortcuts to work properly.

    3. Now providing an error to the user if an amount is entered for an item but a status is not selected.  

USAS-R V7.25.0 Release

  1. The Account Change option has temporarily been removed from the menu.  We discovered problems with this feature that we were unable to resolve in time for the release, so while we continue to correct those problems we have decided to temporarily remove it.  

  2. Performance improvements were made to the various account tabs in the Account UI.  Each of the account grids should now load a minimum of 25% faster.  We will continue to work on improving grid performance in a subsequent release.

  3. Classic's FUNDSUMM report has been added to the Redesign as a canned report named "Financial Summary by Fund Report" and is available from the Report menu.  Users will select how they want to categorize the fund, by function or object, and will also be able to exclude accounts that have zero amounts from the report.

  4. The remaining RECLED reports have been added to the application as template reports.  You'll find them via the report manager as follows:

    1. Budgeting Transactions Summarized by Appropriation, formerly RECAPP

    2. Error Corrections and Supplies Distributions, formerly RECCOR

  5. Created a template report to show budgeting transactions related to Revenue accounts.  The new report is named Anticipated Revenue Transactions.

  6. Corrected the PO XML file to correctly reflect budget account totals with regard to canceled items.  Previously canceled amounts were being included in the total.

  7. Corrected a problem reconciling checks that referenced inactive accounts.

  8. Made improvements to the various Account UIs and Transfer/Advance UI to properly secure buttons for read only users. 

USAS-R V7.26.0 Release

  1. Corrected a problem that prevented users from accessing the new AP Invoice UI.

  2. Corrected a problem that prevented posting budget adjustments for $0.00.

  3. The following error messages have been added to the AP Invoice UI when a user attempts to:

    1. post an invoice with no items

    2. invoice an item for $0.00

    3. invoice an item with a status of cancel_full with an amount that does not equal the items remaining amount

  4. The ability to create a Report Bundle is now available in USAS under the Report menu option!  Report bundles can be created to generate multiple reports at one time based on either an event in the application or a scheduled point in time via the cron expression generator.
