- Finance, including PPM Projects
Area Summary Description and Workaround Status Created Date GL balances Incorrect carryforward balances posting to unit instead of central accounting financial departments Carryforward offsets erroneously posted to academic and administrative units instead of Central Office General Accounting. This may impact the available balances units are seeing at go-live.
Update 1/15/24 - Corrections have been loaded, with additional follow-up needed.
• 18 funds are still out of balance
• Self-supporting funds need analysis
(121XXX)Do not make any significant financial management decision based on the budgets in the General Ledger until a correction is made
- Accounting and Financial Reporting will create journals to correct this error. The estimated date for correction is pending (check back for updates)
In Progress
>2/15/24 update: A one-time process is underway to support Correcting Chart String Balances (and PPM Budgets) Post Go-Live
>3/13/24: Units to submitted files for converted balance corrections, including PPM budgets; central team to make updates in Aggie Enterprise (updates viewable in Aggie Enterprise - TBD)
1/3/24 GL balances and PPM Budgets Not all Chart of Accounts (CoA) mapping incorporated into converted balances/PPM Budgets for go-live A Knowledge Base Article (KBA) for Correcting Chart String Balances (and PPM Budgets) Post Go-Live outlines the one-time process that will be used to correct GL balances and PPM Budgets. Until these corrections are made, do not adjust balances for incorrect chart strings in the GL; and do not adjust budgets for incorrect PPM projects.
To prepare for the correction process:
Watch the tutorial to learn how to use the Inquire on Detail Balances tool in the General Accounting Dashboard to verify the balances you want to reclassify to a different chart string.
Coordinate with your unit's CoA Mapping Lead.
In Progress:
>2/9/24: Non-CGA PPM December budgets have been loaded, validation in progress
>2/7/24: Files have been released to units
>3/13/24: Units to submitted files for converted balance corrections, including PPM budgets; central team to make updates in Aggie Enterprise (updates viewable in Aggie Enterprise - TBD)
1/4/24 PPM Non-Sponsored Projects Incorrect budget load during conversion The budgets loaded into PPM Non-Sponsored Projects are have a budget as of October close.
December 2023 close balances from KFS will be loaded as PPM Budgets end-of-January, to ensure they match the converted budget balances in the GL. At that time, everything will be up-to-date from a conversion standpoint.
Related: CGA is working to process new and amended projects received after November 21st.
In Progress:
>2/9/24: Non-CGA PPM December budgets have been loaded, validation in progress1/8/24 PPM Department Kick-Out (DKO) project Logic for PPM Department Kick-Out projects requires correction There are cases where the Department Kick-Out (DKO) logic is not working as expected and transactions are not posting to DKO projects, including payroll transactions.
This issue impacts the DKO process and the UCPath Labor Ledger Processing (I-101 and I-370).
Currently, there is no workaround. The Aggie Enterprise team is actively focusing on enhancing DKO validation requirements and thoroughly testing the accurate posting of transactions.
In Progress
>3/25/24 update: DKO projects still in progress
2/5/24 - Gifts and Endowment
Area Summary Description and Workaround Status Created Date Foundation Funds Foundation Funds beginning with 6XXXX or 7XXXX were created in error and have been inactivated.
Central Accounting will research and address any balances on these funds.
Early on in conversion planning, Foundation funds were assigned 6xxxx and 7xxxx fund numbers. It was later decided to change them to alpha-numeric funds (See Understanding Gift Fund Value Structure KBA).
• Note: Past iterations of department mapping may have included the 6xxxx and 7xxxx Foundation funds, which have now been inactivated.In addition, Foundation provided a list of allocations that are inactive and should not have been brought over to Aggie Enterprise. In some cases, funds were set up for these allocations using the 6xxxx/7xxxx fund numbering (and then disabled in January). Departments have reported that there are KFS balances as of 12/31 for some of these allocations. Central Accounting will need to research and possibly create a new alpha-numeric fund so the balance can be transferred over.
For departments:
If you come across a balance in a 6XXXX or 7XXXX fund that has been inactivated, please submit a ticket to the Gift & Endowment team. Use the Aggie Enterprise Help Request Form, selecting the following:• Category: Transaction processing, general policy questions, functional support
• Functional subcategory: Accounting and Financial Reporting
• Topic: Gifts and Endowment AccountingIn Progress 3/5/24 - Purchasing
Area Summary Description and Workaround Status Created Date Purchasing - Catalog Suppliers Not all Catalog Suppliers fully loaded at go-live Not all Catalogs loaded at go-live date; and Catalogs are continually being added.
As of 2/15/24 the following catalogs are live: AggieSupply Stores, Amazon, CDWG*, Dell, Fisher Scientific, Fastenal, Grainger, Life Technologies, Medline, Millipore-Sigma, Neta Scientific, ODP (Office Depot), Thomas Scientific, VWR
*NOTE: CDWG catalog includes Apple, HP, Ricoh, and Lenovo products.In Process
>2/15/24 update: See Catalog Supplier plan for list of expected availability
1/4/24 Purchase Order (PO) Conversion No sales tax converted for open PO lines Due to complexity of extracting correct sales tax for only open purchase order lines from Kuali, converted POs in Aggie Enterprise do not include sales tax. When converted POs are invoiced, correct sales tax will be calculated by tax engine and will be paid based on zip code listed in PO and vendor charged tax. On-going for all converted POs 1/23/24 - Accounts Payable
Area Summary Description and Workaround Status Created Date Accounts Payable - Payments ACH payments remittance emails not set up for all vendors At go-live not all vendors have ACH remittance email addresses set up in their records. AP and Supplier Services will continue working to add these emails so remittance notifications can go out to payees.
Vendors with questions on ACH payments should contact aphelp@ucdavis.eduIn Progress 1/22/24 Accounts Payable – Invoicing on Converted POs Mapping of CoA/PPM on invoices of converted POs may not reflect desired mapping Purchase orders were converted based on the CoA/PPM rules that were established for go-live. The invoicing team is unable to update the existing accounting information.
In the event that these rules do not reflect the department's desired mapping, the recommended guidance is to reallocate the expense after the invoice is approved. This can be done through a journal or PPM cost transfer.- • Journal transfer - https://kb.ucdavis.edu/?id=09749
- • PPM cost transfer - https://kb.ucdavis.edu/?id=09580

Area Summary Description and Workaround Status Created Date All Custom Reports Oracle Displays UTC Time on Custom Reports Users have found that the reports are displaying data in UTC time instead of PST time zone. Since there is a difference of 8 hrs between UTC and PST (lagging date) , the date is showing up as next day when the data is created after 4pm PST (Next day 00:00 UTC) in the reports. A Service Request has been opened with Oracle to address the issue. 3/1/24 UCD Faculty and Department Portfolio Report Multiple Bug Fixes and Enhancements Please Note: There are a few reported issues with the Faculty and Department Portfolio Report that was released today.

- Finance, including PPM Projects
Area Summary Description and Workaround Status Release Date GL Revenue Transfer Journals Revenue Transfer journals for GL only recharges are auto-rejecting Units who submit recharge billing to GL only chart strings on their own using the UCD Revenue Transfer Journal process will have their journal auto-reject. This is expected to be fixed very quickly so please wait to submit your journal until the fix is completed.

Process for correction can be found in the PPM Project values missing from the PPM subledger knowledge article. Resolved 1/23/24 PPM Projects end dates PPM Projects end and close dates are incorrect During conversion some PPM Project end and close dates set to default, this impacts expense transactions and other activities associated with financial administration of a sponsored award.
An enhancement was applied to update end and close dates to correct date(s).
Implemented 1/26/24 TouchNet credit card feed processing (not a Banner issue) TouchNet credit card feed, for only those merchants that process directly to the ledger, was inaccurate. TouchNet daily credit card feed was inaccurate for those merchants that process directly to Aggie Enterprise ledger.

Implemented 1/26/24 Purchase Orders (PO) Conversion POs mapped to some PPM projects did not convert 2/9/24 update: 81 of the 100 POs that did not initially convert have successfully been reloaded. 19 POs did not convert. At this point, the 19 will not be reloaded. If they are still valid and need to be in Aggie Enterprise, please process a Requisition and note in your request that this is an attempt to recreate a PO from KFS that did not convert. You would also want to make sure the vendor who will send the invoice to Aggie Enterprise is aware of the new PO number that is being created in the system. Resolved 2/9/24 Purchase Order PDF One Time Locations were not populating in Delivery section of PO PDF Issue resolved, Delivery addresses now populating in corresponding Delivery Address box on the PO PDF.
