Status of Facilities Sub-Team by Carol Rylee:

                The facilities team has completed the training manual exercise and has recommended to the executive team that we NOT use projects module for facilities, but rather we use the Project CHART FIELD only.  This may result in the GRANTS team having ‘control’ over the control_ID’s for the pc_tables.

Decision on new meeting schedule:  Have 3 working meetings a month and only 1 Official Meeting?

                The group agreed that one meeting with minutes was sufficient and the other 3 meetings should be working meetings to make more progress. Each meeting will begin at 10am (we’ll plan on a 10:10 start for Reporting Team departure) and will last until 11:30. Becky will prepare a forecast of dates for upcoming meetings and minute takers for those requiring official minutes.

 

Setup of Grants: Carol provided the Location table from P.S. HR- will need to be reviewed.

 

Continue populating UOD01 Control Tables.

                ISSUE: Journals---where do we want these to be ‘handled’? GL or in each module separately.

 

Assignments for next meeting:  

1.       We’ll replace our team meeting with the chart fields meeting on Dec. 12th.

2.       Read on Journal Generator for next meeting discussion

3.        Determine how many journal generator processes take place in Grants
