Summary
This release contains bug fixes and report improvements as detailed in the release notes below.
Important Highlights
Please keep in mind these release notes only reflect the changes included in this release. There are many other features of the software that were previously released that will not be reflected in these release notes. General information about all of the features available in USAS-R can be found in our USAS-R Documentation. There is a section in the documentation that also details the significant changes between USAS-R and classic USAS.
- Transfer/Advance improvements
- The time frame for repaying advances that restricted users to the same or next fiscal year has been removed. Per AOS, it is the district's responsibility to know how the advance is to be repaid.
- Restrictions per AOS on the accounts to be used when processing Advances (In and Out). The AOS USAS manual specifies the accounts to be used and the software now enforces that. Districts will no longer be able to "back out" an advance in order to repay it. Please see the AOS USAS Manual for Advances for details. We are still waiting to hear on the use of the 910 and 920 object codes, so until we hear otherwise those object codes can be used.
- The ability to link the Advances to their Repays that were posted in Classic prior to migrating to the Redesign. Please see the USAS-R Documentation for Repay an Advance for details. We've created a template report to assist districts in linking their Classic advances and repays: SSDT Transfer Advance Activity report.
