It would be nice if for each Distribution shown on the Personnel Projections report, in the top (header) line, it could show the salary sub for that Distribution.

User would like to add a "use interval" option for generation of unreconciled reports so that the reports could contain only unreconciled transactions prior to a user defined end date. Purpose is to identify old unreconciled transactions as current unreconciled transactions are probably not a problem.

A purchase order was incorrectly enter into the sub 3-Supplies exempt from overhead...in p.o. 008442-30243 ...It isn't a field I can change but want to. Short of cancelling the p.o. which I don't want to do since it's already gone to the vendor, how can I fix it?

The purchasing information doesn't seem to be linking to the inventory information. When I enter equipment order info, it doesn't show up on the inventory list. I also don't get the pop-up (like old Gus version -not sure if the pop-up is even used in the new version) asking how many pieces of equipment (not sure of the exact wording) I want to add.

when in the edit/reconcile module or assisted reconcile module and changing the overhead $ amount in a transaction, the notes section indicates a change in the shipping $ amount, which is incorrect. it should note a change in overhead

Duane Devecchio was projected on KEU01 for 100% for August but his appointment didn't start until August 10th, which for August that meant he should have been paid 69.57% not 100%. He was projected at the correct amount of 69.57%. We use the payroll roster to pay employees but the roster showed that he was to be paid at 100% not 69.57%, therefore when Tina paid him she paid him according to the roster and overpaid him by 30.43%...How can this be avoided in the future?

It would be extremely handy if both the Project Status screen and the Account Fund Status screen and maybe even the Personnel Summery screen had the overhead rate (%) to reference. I find I need that information often when I'm using those screens. Only "a way down on your list" request, but a handy dandy tool...............

When a new transaction in created in the post/reconcile screen for a negative (credit) payroll transaction the save changes button is greyed out. Yo have to check the reconcile button and then the save changes button appears. When you then press save changes and reconile box is still checked you assume it will reconcile and it does not. Sometimes it will not reconcile the transaction until you leave that empolyee and then go back to empolyee and transaction.

KMW01, Matt Kay, this employee ended 10/31/07. GUS set him as inactive, even thouh, I went and set him as active, GUS kept setting him as inactive. When I tried to reconcile 10/07, the distribution was hidden. I had to check the button "show all" to get it back. Perhaps you already knew this, if so, please turn off the inactive set up or set a preference for it. Thanks, Imelda

Re: PHYS8Y A high value p.o. was created as 060 then later became SB44697 for $2718.32 and was paid via the purch system......The invoice was paid but it appears that Gus created two leins, one for the original 060 and another one for SB44697 so when the invoice was paid only one lein went bye bye....I'm leaving it for you to look at but let me know when you figure it out so I can eliminate the lein. tanks.

In the Projects module, I am in a project and making some changes (e.g., correcting title, dates, etc). I hit cancel (by mistake). I get the screen that indicates changes have been made are you sure you want to cancel. I choose "Don't cancel" but it still dumps me back to the list of projects screen and does not save changes. When I hit "don't cancel" it should take be back to the previous screen and give me a chance to hit done and save my work, it doesn't do that.

Our list of funding agencies is long and does not fit on the screen (at least 5 columns and growing), even when I go to the highest resolution. So I can't choose an agency if it alphabetically past "U" I can see some agencies in the 4th column, or click on numerous ones until I get to the correct one. An additional problem, even if I get the correct project, if it has divisions (like UC Sea Grant) the list for the divisions shows up on the far left of the screen when my mouse has clicked on a agency on the far right, making it impossible to choose the division (and thus choose the agency) I have had this problem with the agency list for over a year with no resolutions. Any chance of it being fixed? I assume no, it won't be fixed, since I am on a PC and the GUS developer only believes in the existence of Macs.

A number of employees who were to be paid this month didn't show up on our roster. In one case Ryan Moll who's appointment ended 10/23/07 wasn't there. My thinking is that he was made inactive the same day his appointment ended but the problem is we still need to pay him for hours worked in October. This is a problem. Other people not paid had appointments out many months but still didn't show up. I don't think I've had this happen before...............help..........

It would be extremely helpful if I could request all projects with projections from the print screen, like a range from ARP23 to WAN01 from (date) to (date).....clear as mud?

Hi Mark, Just as a suggestion, I think it would be nice to have a work sheet for work study in GUS, in which the departments can manage for how long and how much work study is lef for a student. I also thought about that when the projection is reconciled with the PPPs, that information can populate the work sheet, for both when you project and reconcile. So that, you can have the actual amount of money left. You mentioned to have a tab for work study. That might not be a bad idea. As you saw, ICESS does not get that many work study students. However, I remember at MSI, I would have between 15-25 students with work study that I had to update the worksheets. Also, the students need to use their work study by the first week of June, which is the last week of instruction. Otherwise they would lose it. In other words, it would be nice to notify the PI, via email, that there is WS left that can be used or will be lost, or that the work study has been used up and they do not go thinking there is still some left. Thank you, Imelda

Maybe just like when you pull someone's name from the employee list that you just type the first three/four letters of the last name. I know I will forget to use the @ sign next time I have to use the look up drop down menu. Thank you, Imelda

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but I'll start here. If I print out a Salary projection for say SJC03 from Oct 2006 to present this doesn't accurately reflect who actually got paid for those months. In fact I don't have a method of reporting as to who was paid on a particular grant nor how much, for say the same period of time. Is this something in the new personnel module that is upcoming?
