A new Supplier Invoice Basics 15-minute course is available in BuckeyeLearn. This session is recommended for Ohio State employees that make purchases and work with suppliers.
Coming Soon: Plan Versus Actuals by Plan Worktags:
A new report that compares plan to actuals variances by plan worktags has been developed in Workday and will be migrated into production the week of 11/14/22. The report shows plan to actual variances by each unique combination of: Balancing Unit, Cost Center, Fund, Program, Project, Activities and Events, and Assignee.
Note: The Grant and Gift worktags were omitted from this report as plan is not loaded down to these dimensions.
OnBase automates the pairing of invoice detail lines with purchase order detail lines prior to posting an invoice in Workday. New resources are now available to help provide additional visibility and support around this process.
OnBase Job Aid - A new OnBase job aid has been created for OnBase users. The guide provides information about basic OnBase functionality and navigation.
The two reporting enhancements listed are now in production.
Find Miscellaneous Payment Request Summary - OSU - This report has been enhanced to include the Accounting Date, and Reconciliation Status as both a report prompt, and output field.
Find Expense Report Details - OSU - This report has been enhanced to include the Merchant Name transmitted to the bank for Expense Report lines associated with PCard Purchases.
As a result of user community feedback, the "Equity Balances by Balancing/Carry Forward Worktags" report will receive two updates.
An enhancement has been made to the Sources and Uses suite of reports to allow users to select "book" when running a report.
Please note that if you have saved filters on this report you will need to ensure your report is running on the common book to return the results your saved filters would have normally returned. When you apply a saved filter the book default of common book will blank out. Please update your filters to select the common book if appropriate.
An additional view has been created in the "Payroll Expense Details and Flexible Payroll Expense Data" to show hours associated with salary expense. The new tabs are called "Prepopulated Monthly Payroll Actuals (Hours and Amount)" and "Flexible Monthly Payroll Actuals (Hours and Amount)."
The Office of the Controller has compiled an inventory of available trainings for end users broken down by finance and supply chain areas. The inventory provides the course name with link, description of the course, security roles the trainings are recommended for and if the training is required or recommended. The inventory will be updated as courses are added or edits are made.
The "Find Internal Service Delivery Lines by Cost Center" report has been enhanced to help tie the operational activity to the General Ledger. A new date range prompt has been added to this report to allow for searching ISD activity based on Accounting Date. Revenue worktags and Accounting Date (as a column) have also been added to the output of this report.
