2019-07-24 USAS New Issue Review and Prioritization

Prioritization Items to Discuss

  1. EXPROC 

    Unable to locate Jira server for this macro. It may be due to Application Link configuration.

    1. Some ITCs have districts that still use this program

    2. Committee discussion: 

      1. This is a pretty important feature of Classic used to post expenditures to the books that don't require a physical check.  Used to use negative reduction of expenditure but got 'dinged' by audit for overuse as this is not the intent of red. of exp.

      2. Need to check with auditors on whether or not we can do something like a direct check without creating the PO.

      3. Districts use this for: foundation payments, board share of vision/life/dental/health insurance, dental and health claims (come directly out of bank account and need to record the expenditure), fees from real estate taxes and bond payments, "right now" checks done via Edge.

    District wants to be able to import invoice transactions 

    1. District uses PNC Bank and wants to import the invoices instead of posting via the UI for "P-Card each month"

    2. Committee discussion: 

      1. There wasn't much discussion on this topic.  This is specific to PNC bank and at this point we have a request from one district.  Will create a Jira issue to complete the work but committee determined this was a low priority.

  3. Recreate Classic's APPCOM report; this is not an SSDT report

    1. Committee discussion: 

      1. NOACSC - our districts use this report, it helps to show the legal limit of spending authority, it's given to county auditors.

      2. Discussed the difference between APPCOM and the Appropriations and Receivables by Cash Account report and determined we could just add a variance column to the existing report instead of creating a new report.

        1. variance column to show Cash + FYTD Receivables - FYTD Expendable

      3. The information is currently available but running the existing Appropriations and Receivables by Cash Account report in Excel and adding a column to do the above mentioned calculation.  Since a work around is available the committee determined the priority on the issue to be low.

  4. Open discussion/questions?  None.
