A:  Requisition Authorizations are missing on the user preferences. Contact Security.




A:  E-mail Angela Kapinos in Accounts Payable (angelak@admin.umass.edu) with the vendor name, tax id number and the address you need.




A:  Historical encumbrances were not brought forward in the upgrade. All encumbrances that currently exist on the system (HR and PO) were reestablished in version 8.9. If you wish to see historical encumbrance balances you can access the monthly reports that were run in version 7.5.




A:  Associated Revenue is the version 8.9 equivalent of the “Revenue Driven” budgets in 7.5. When revenue is recorded for revenue driven funds in 8.9, it increases the spending authority for that Fund/Department but does not increase the budget amount. The Associated Revenue is the amount that the spending authority has been increased by the revenue.




A:  This means you are over budget on a non-controlled budget. The transaction will still have a valid budget status but you may want to check on your budget.




A:  When nVision runs over the web, the excel spreadsheet generated appears in your browser window (Internet Explorer/Firefox etc.) by default. To change default, please see Open in Excel




A:  Most likely this means you have query create and should be able to get there through: Reporting Tools -> Query -> Query Manager. If this is not available either, please contact the campus security administrator




A:  No, nVision reports must be user executed to Report Manager and then drill downs can be run.




A:  The upgrade process converted the 7.5 scopes from Production only. The Reporting team will be looking at converting the scopes from the Reporting database as soon as possible.




A:  Your 7.5 batch reports from 2006 are located in the following link: http://apps-inside.umassadmin.net/ddrint/servlet/ddrintee. Your 2007 reports will be in the following navigation: Report Center > Finance/Grants > Batch Reports (RDT).




A:  No, user executed reports will run directly to the Report Manager. However, you have the ability to run reports to other users Report Manager. To do so, fill out Run Control ID on report. Click Run or Run Report. When you get to Process Scheduler, select the appropriate Server Name. Click the Distribution link and enter the User ID of the person.




A:  Login to Windows as a user with local admin privileges, then when you print a report from the Report Distributin Tool, a plug-in will automatically be installed after which you can log back into Windows as a normal user.




A:  When you split a procard charge you can only use the speedchart for the first distribution line. The subsequent lines must have the chartfields filled in manually. If a speedchart is used, it will overwrite the first line.




A:  Yes.




A:  The official recommendations are here. In addition to the official recommendations, we have found that 512MB ram performs significantly faster than 256MB. Also, even though both Windows and Macs are supported, the level of support seems to be higher for Windows than Macs.
