Drawdown Group and Drawdown Department fields were added to the Major Program (MJPRG) and Program (PROG) tables in order to enable the grouping of expenditures across Departments Major Programs and Programs in an effort to provide more user control over the document generation of Receivables and Cash Receipts.
Drawdown Groups are setup on the Drawdown Group (DDG) table. The Drawdown Group field is used to link Major Programs and Programs across departments while providing further control during the reimbursement output process. Those reimbursable Major Programs and Programs associated with a Drawdown Group will have Receivable and Cash Receipt documents generated that combine all Major Programs into a single document which belong to a Drawdown Group further simplifying the drawdown process. The combination of lines into a single document is limited by any existing Document Component Requirements for line limits, thus a single document of each type may not necessarily be created.
