Application Parameters
Although considered an administrative reference page, the Application Parameter (APPCTRL) page is part of general system configuration. Options on this page are set once and do not vary by year, fund, department, transaction, or other factors. It is very generic in its design so that it can host many different types of options with the Parameter Name and Parameter Value fields. Of the controls on this page, those listed below directly relate to the Cost Accounting area. Many are discussed in other sections in this user guide where functionality is detailed that uses the application parameter. Note: Any changes to records on this table should be followed by a bounce of all servers used for CGI Advantage Financial.

FY, Period and Quarter inference on ICT Transaction Accounting (INF_FY_PER_QTR_ICT_ACTG) |
As an alternative to inferring FY, Period, and Quarter from the Record Date, setting this parameter to True directs Internal Costing Usage Transactions to infer them from the Usage From date on the Internal Costing Usage Transaction. A value of True results in the transaction recording the usage as of the date used instead of the date the usage is entered/approved. |

Alternate Interest Rate Cost Table (USE_R_INT_CST_RT_ALT_TABLE) |
The Internal Costing function has an option to define rates by a date range or fiscal year, which is controlled by this parameter. When set to False, the Internal Cost Rate (R_INT_CST_RT) is used, which defines rates by Fiscal Year, Department, Rate Category and Usage Class. When set to True, the Alternate Internal Cost Rate (R_INT_CST_RT_ALT) is used, which defines rates by Effective From, Department, Usage Class and Rate Category. |
