(Deltek Tracking Number: 2162003)
Invoice Adjustment Updates
Accounts Payable > Invoice Register:
- Added the Include Edit History field. This generates the Invoice Register with historical activity. Edited items display in bold while deleted items display with strikethrough. Note that changes made to the Notes and Attachments are not included.
- Added the following details:
- User who created or edited the invoice
- Date and time of the entry or edit
- Activity and transaction date for each invoice activity
- Report totals for the most recent invoice values
- Adjust date and period for invoices edited to a different period
Accounts Payable Reports:- Added the View Invoice History option wherever the voucher or invoice number is clickable. It opens the Invoice Register to include Edit History view for the selected voucher. This has been added to:
- Open Invoice
- Paid Invoice
- Invoice Inquiry
- Committed Cost
- A/P Aging
- A/P Expenses by G/L Account
- Job Cost Detail
Accounts Payable > Edit an Invoice:
- Renamed the Post To field to Invoice Period.
- Added the History button. This opens the Invoice Register to include Edit History for the selected invoice. You can quickly view who created or edited the invoice and easily identify what was changed and when.
- Added the Adjust as of Date and Adjust to Period fields. If an edit affects a field that has cost implications (amount, G/L account, Job Cost or Equipment distribution, etc.), you will be prompted for the period and date you want the change to take effect. The amount of your change will be reflected in the Adjust Period, as of the Adjust Date. This allows the option to post invoice edits to a period other than the original invoice period. The original entry will remain intact and the adjustment amount will be reflected in the Adjust Period.
- If an edit changes the amount or any Distribution Lines, you will be prompted to select the Adjust as of Date and Adjust to Period so the adjustment is reflected correctly.
- If the entry has no prior edits, the Adjust as of Date and Adjust to Period default to the Invoice Date and Invoice Period, respectively.
- If the entry has had prior edits, the Adjust as of Date and Adjust to Period default to the most recent adjustment.
- Reports that display As of Posting Date and As of Period will reflect the edited values.
- A complete history of edits, including the user and date, is saved and tracked, except:
- Edits to attachments, notes, routing, and waivers.
- Edits to Purchase Order Invoiced/Received details, except for their effect on the Invoice Amount or Distribution Lines.
- Edits to Subcontract Receipt Billing, except for their effect on the Invoice Amount or Distribution Lines.
Accounts Payable > Void an Invoice:
- Voids now post to the most recent adjustment period. The Void as of Date and Void as of Period fields default to the latest adjustment values. You cannot select a void date or period earlier than the latest adjustment.
General Ledger Posting:- Invoice edits now appear in the General Ledger as a reversal of the original amount and the total of the adjusted amount in the Adjust to Period, which nets to the amount of the adjustment. This allows you to post the adjustment to a period other than the original invoice period, if the original period is closed. For example, an original invoice of $1,000 edited to $1,100 will show –$1,000 and +$1,100 (net +$100).
- Job cost, equipment cost, Direct Pay postings display adjustment amounts when edits are made in the Adjust to Period.
(Deltek Tracking Number: 2114183)
AIA Invoice Change Order Reports
The following changes have been made to Accounts Receivable > Work on AIA Invoices > Reports > Print Change Order Report:
- Added the Sort by field. Options include RFC, Status, and CO #. If Status or CO # is selected, subtotals are displayed for the corresponding option.
- Added the Include zero value Change Orders field. If yes is selected, the report includes zero contract value Job Cost change orders. If no is selected, zero contract value Job Cost change orders are excluded unless they have a contract value for Schedule.
- Added CO # which displays the Change Order number from the RFC "Approved" event in Job Cost.
(Deltek Tracking Number: 1910939)

- Configure > API Management > API Data Access Management > Jobs > Filtered
(Deltek Tracking Number: 2374810)
