Coming Soon: Updated Spend Category Hierarchies for Reporting

Spend category hierarchies (level 5) will be updated to create logical groupings of expenses. These groupings will help provide a level of visibility that is inbetween the high-level Supplies and Services view, and the granular spend category level. Below are a few examples of logical expense groupings the changes will create.

  • Computer, Audiovisual, and Copying Services
  • Maintenance and Repair Services
  • Financial, Accounting, and Legal Services
  • HVAC, Electrical and Electronic Components

 

Once the hierarchy changes are made, the "Sources and Uses - Variance Analysis" report will be updated to bring in the level 5 spend category hierarchies. This will allow you to expand supplies and services and view spend associated with the updated hierarchies. You will still have the option to drill/expand to view at the individual spend category level if you have the need.
