As Grants and Contracts Accounting bills for February expenses, they will begin booking Accounts Receivable and recognizing revenue on all new and outstanding invoices. This is necessary for the implementation of the PeopleSoft Grants Module planned for December 2012.
Accounts Receivables will be posted to account 15300 (Accounts Receivable) located on the balance sheet in the Management Report. We will not be booking Accounts Receivables for letter of credit projects at this time.
In the past, we recognized revenue when we received the funds. Beginning March, 2012, we will recognize revenue when the invoice is prepared. Account 15300 (Accounts Receivable) is the amount billed but not paid by the sponsor. To obtain the amount already paid by the sponsor, you will need to subtract the Accounts Receivable amount from the Revenue amount.

This is part of the PAM initiative.

The daily run of salary encumbrances has resumed. The issue has been resolved. The process was run this morning, so the most up-to-date information is now showing in the Payroll Encumbrance Summary report detail.
The daily run of salary encumbrances is still on hold. To bring the encumbrance data up-to-date, we have run the process today, Friday, February 3. You will see this date on the Payroll Encumbrance Summary report. As of today, the information is correct. The encumbrance information in the Management Reports (Summary of Rev/Exp, Balance Sheet, Funds Available) will be updated tomorrow.
The process remains on hold pending the resolution of the issue.
We have temporarily suspended the daily run of salary encumbrances. We have discovered there are a few instances where the encumbrance is posting incorrectly to the General Ledger. We’ve put the process on hold until this issue is resolved.
This hold affects the encumbrance information in the Management Reports. You will notice on the Payroll Encumbrance Summary report that the last time the process was run was Friday, January 27, 2012. As of Friday, January 27, 2012, the information is correct.
Thanks for your patience.
