Cross-Charge Business Unit Exceptions in Projects Using a REST API
Manage exceptions to the project-level cross-charge provider business units using the Projects REST API. If a project does not allow charges from all provider business units, then use the Projects REST API to manage those business units where cross-charges are allowed. Conversely, if a project does allow charges from all provider business units, then use the Projects REST API to manage those business units for where cross-charges are not allowed.
Project Cost Adjustments Using a REST API
Manage project cost adjustments using the Project Costs REST API. This release adds canceling of pending adjustments and editing expenditure comments to the list of adjustment types that are already available. This feature extends capabilities to build comprehensive integrated solutions for managing project costs, such as creating workbooks using the Oracle Visual Builder Add-in for Excel.
Payroll Cost Distribution Error Removal
Remove all payroll costs that failed in distribution using labor schedules on initial import or when adjusted using new labor schedules. This allows for cleaning up payroll costs that need to be removed due to inadvertently importing or adjusting.
Project Cost Transaction Reversal After Person Assignment Changes
Import reversals of person-related cost transactions, such as time cards, regardless of the current status of the person's assignment status. Previously, reversals could be imported only if the person's associated assignment was active.
Unprocessed Cost Drill Down from OTBI
Drill down from OTBI analyses to unprocessed costs in the Costs work area. Add an action link on unprocessed transaction identifier, to enable the drill down using a deep link. A deep link is a URL to open a page without navigating through the application menu structure. Project accountants can easily navigate back and forth from the analysis to the application to review details.
Use Transaction Date as the Expenditure Item Date for Purchase Order Receipts
Use the actual transaction date of a purchase order receipt as the expenditure item date for project-based receipts.
Planning, Scheduling, and Forecasting
Project Forecast Planning Options Management Using a REST API
Manage planning options for project forecast using the Project Forecasts REST API. Override the default planning options defined from the financial plan type while creating a project forecast. This override facility better aligns to the user experience available to users in the user interface.
Project Templates Management of Additional Attributes Using a REST API
Manage additional template attributes using the Project Templates REST API. For example, manage the financial burden schedule and currency conversion values. Indicate whether projects will be enabled as planning projects used to schedule tasks and resources. Add or delete business units that are exceptions to the cross-charge rule and update and delete project tasks using child resources of the Project Templates REST API. Manage additional attributes for tasks including capitalization, burden, and cross-charge options.
Simplified Resource Assignment User Experience for a Financial Project Plan
Expedite resource assignments with the simplified user interface on the financial project plan. The user interface changes make the selection of resources easy with profile images, gives flexibility to assign resources in multiple transaction currencies, and provides a quick search.
Transaction Analysis for Project Planning Resource Assignments Report
Use the new Transaction Analysis for Project Planning Resource Assignments Report to understand how a cost rate has been calculated for resource assignments in financial project plans, project budgets, and project forecasts. For example, use the report to quickly determine the cause of cost rate derivation errors, such as organizations missing from costing rules, or entries missing from rate schedules. Conversely, where cost rate values have been derived but are not as expected, use the report to understand the logic behind the derived value, for example where a project cost rate override has been used.
Program Management and Reporting
Program Management Communication
Manage and create templates that suit specific business needs to generate and communicate detailed program health information to stakeholders. Tailored templates help manage the content and frequency of reports that best fit the business need. Program Managers can share the program's health status with the stakeholders, and stakeholders can view and collaborate on the shared reports.
Federal Financial Report Enhancements
The Federal Financial Report is enhanced to display the new Unique Entity Identifier instead of the D-U-N-S number. The report is now compliant with the latest requirements posted by Grants.gov.
