Reimbursement Generation Parameter

The Reimbursement Generation Parameter (REIMGEN) page defines a set of parameters into the Reimbursement Generation system process that are intended to change in some fashion between runs. The page has two tabs with the first contains most selection parameters, with the second tab containing optional Customer ID for selection with an inference of the Legal Name. Controlling by customer allows an easy differentiation of reimbursement schedules for customers that have the same frequency but different processing dates.

Field Name

Description

Run Mode

An indication that determines the way the process runs:

  • Report Only Mode – This run mode allows selection and calculations to occur without creating transactions. This mode can be run as many times as necessary until the what-if results are as expected.

  • Update Mode – This mode is only recommended if first run to generate a report and that report was reviewed and determined to be accurate, as this mode takes information already selected and calculated to generate transactions.

  • Report and Update Mode - This mode produces both a report and transactions.

Date Frequency

From Date

To Date

Run Date

Record selection from CA_REIM and R_REIM_HOLD is done with one of two date ranges. The first is from the range defined with the From and To Date fields. The second is using the Run Date supplied and selecting all records found that are equal to or less than that date. In either case a Run Date is required since a look-up is performed to Frequency Date (FREQDT) using the Run Date to determine what reimbursement frequencies need to be selected for a particular run.

When using the From and To Date fields, the Date Frequency setting must be True. Otherwise, the field must be False.

Customer Selection

The indication that additional selection will use or not use identified customers. A setting of Not Applicable means that customer selection will not be used. The settings of Include and Exclude determine how the record(s) entered on the Customer tab will be used in selection.

Budget FY

Fiscal Year

Accounting Period

Optional selection criteria that are used to narrow down selected records so that the Reimbursement Output process can match the Budget FY, Fiscal Year, and Accounting Period with output parameters so that reimbursements are processed into a desired time period instead of the current period.

Update Customer Detail and Dept Revenue from Funding Line

The optional criteria to re-infer updated Customer ID and Dept Revenue values from Funding Line during the Reimbursement Generation process.

Update Drawdown Values

The optional criteria to re-infer updated Drawdown Group, Drawdown Department, and Drawdown Unit from Program or Major Program during the Reimbursement Generation process.

Include Prior Periods

An indication whether records should be selected from Ready for Reimbursement and/or the Reimbursement Hold for a specific Fiscal Year and Accounting Period combination or for a range of Accounting Periods. The field has the following values:

  • Not Applicable – This default is only allowed if the Accounting Period field is blank.

  • Yes - The range will start with the Accounting Period of the Last Run Date on the selected Frequency Date record through the specified Fiscal Year and Accounting Period combination for the Reimbursement Generation Parameter ID.

  • No – The range will only include the Fiscal Year and Accounting Period combination for the Reimbursement Generation Parameter ID.
