2019 Position Management Updates
On September 1st, 2019, Position Management updates went live. The enhancements include new reports, dashboards, and improvements to the system and processes.
You can view the roadshow deck (PDF, NYU login required) to learn more about these updates. If you missed the roadshow, you can also watch a video demo recorded at the session.
Enhancements to the Chartfield Access Authorization Form
There are two enhancements to the new Chartfield Access Authorization Form that required some system downtime later last month. The enhancements were:
- Migrating the application supporting the Chartfield Access Authorization Form to an updated and highly secure server. This will not change the appearance or functionality of the form.
- The approval workflow for the Chartfield Access Authorization Form is changing to ServiceLink and will now work in the same way as approvals for BudMod and AP Workflow.
Update: Issues with Multi-Year Purchase Orders
These issues were resolved in fame and a solution has been implemented to ensure all transactions, including vouchers and encumbrances, show correctly on the UDW+ reports.
This would show in four ways:
- Voucher –Encumbrance has been corrected but the actuals were posted to the incorrect Budget year.
- Voucher –Encumbrance and Actuals were posted to the incorrect Budget year. ( Paid / Unpaid)
- Voucher –has been paid and the payment is posted to the incorrect budget year.
- Voucher—has not been paid but will need to be adjusted to correct budget year.
Please contact FinanceLink if you have any questions or issues.
