A new column has been added to the "Find Journal Lines - OSU - Posted Journals by Amount Type" report to display the Stock Request Number for journal lines with an Inventory Shipment journal source. This is to allow end users to trace a shipment back to the original requisition submitted for the order.
The "Cost of Sales" worktag changes listed below are coming soon.
Validations on Expenditure Treatment (ET101)
The "Find Transaction Summary Reports" report group has been created to help end users run multiple reports with a single set of prompts. This report group will render results for the summary report groups in the following areas: Requisitions, Spend Authorizations, Expense Report, Miscellaneous Payment Requests, Supplier Invoices, Supplier Invoice Requests, and Purchase Orders. The output of all these reports is compiled and downloaded into one Excel file for end user convenience. Pivot tables have been added on a tab in the Excel output summarizing the report statuses.
Sources and Uses - Variance Analysis Changes
The Controller's Office recommends that units do a periodic review for worktags that are no longer being used and submit inactivation requests through an FDM Request in Workday. Prior to submitting worktag inactivation requests, please ensure that the Inactivation Checklist has been completed and the balances are clear.
Below are details about recent and upcoming report changes.
Find Journals - OSU
The "Find Journals - OSU" report has been enhanced with two additional fields in the output of the report. The field names are "Cost Center" and "Worktags."
Report Retirement Reminder
The reports "Find Accounting Adjustments" and "Find Accounting Adjustment Lines for Organizations" will be retired on Friday, September 27. The recommended replacement for these reports is "Accounting Adjustment Status - OSU."
"Find Supplier Invoice Summary - OSU" Report: The "Find Supplier Invoice Summary - OSU" report has been enhanced with two additional fields in the output of the report. The field names are "Invoice Reference ID" and "Supplier Reference ID."
The "Positions for Planning" report will be updated the evening of Monday, August 12. In order to pull in the new "Payroll Encumbrance Accrual Reversal" journal source data successfully, the “region” filter and column was removed from the report. This integration was created for FY24 year-end to fix the encumbrances for the last biweekly payroll of the year. Please note, the "Pay Component" and "Pay Group" fields will be blank for the "Payroll Encumbrance Accrual Reversal" journal source rows.
Please remember to take prompt action on in-progress or created journals before business day 5 of month-end close. This will help limit the high volume of transactions that the Controller's Office needs to move and/or cancel to close the period. Workday notifications issue a reminder to take action on journals on business day 4, and reminder emails are sent to the Cost Center Manager distribution list on day 5 as an additional reminder.
There is a Workday case open due to reported issues where journal EIBs are stuck in a queued status for a few hours before being created. If you notice that you are affected by this issue, please do not resubmit the EIB, as it will slow things down further and duplicate journals will be created that need to be cancelled. When this occurs, please be patient, the queued EIB journals eventually get created after a few hours and you will be able to submit them at that time.
