Description
Background: On October 20, 2017 the DPAS/DAI interface for 12 Capitalization of Purchased Assets (X819) were identified on the DAI Unhandled Report due incomplete information from DPAS. The reason the 12 transactions were in the DAI unhandled report was due to blank fields: BUDGET_FISCAL_YEAR, BA_BSA_BLI, DAI_PROJECT_NUMBER, and DAI_TASK_NUMBER. The root problem was due to blank information in DPAS two fields (1) Task Cd (DAI Project Number) and (2) Job Order Nbr (DAI Task) in Asset Management; therefore, interfaced to DAI as blank information.
Recommended
Make (1) Task Cd (DAI Project Number) and (2) Job Order Nbr (DAI Task) mandatory fields, this will fix the transactions due to incomplete information.
Mission Critical
Mission Critical. Reporting of incomplete financial data to the general ledger can give a false narrative of the data provided and could cause major issue for financial audit of the Agency Capital Assets.
Benefits
By making the two fields REQUIRED in DPAS, (1) Task Cd (DAI Project Number) and (2) Job Order Nbr (DAI Task), it will the eliminate and correct the process in both DPAS and DAI.
Users
This will affect all Property Accountability users of DPAS.
