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 manner in which the process will run:

  • Report Only Mode – This run mode allows selection and calculations to occur without the final/true database updates occurring. 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 will take information already selected and calculated to generate transactions.

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

Date Range

From Date

To Date

The first of two types of Frequency Date record selection is with the Date Range indication being set to true. This setting requires the From and To Dates to be entered and used to select Frequency Date records. When false, the Run Date selection option must be used.

Run Date

The second of two types of Frequency Date record selection is with the Run Date being populated. When populated the Date Range selection fields must be blank.

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.

Include Prior Periods

  • 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.
