CAPPS Financials Changes

  • Correct coding for the USAS to CAPPS inbound job to allow duplicate USAS document numbers for USX/MAN vouchers across different fiscal years. (SR-64959)
  • Add a column to the PO Inquiry Balance page to view finalized vouchers. (SR-68597)
  • Add the value “expert” to the contract category selection options on the Texas Data page. (SR-69977)
  • Add a filter for SpeedChart status on the SpeedChart setup page. (SR-70375)
  • Correct coding for cancelled requisitions that were not budget checked to ensure budget tables are updated correctly (by applying Oracle patches). (SR-72354)
  • Fix the reporting tools using the TX_KK_ACT_LOG table to ensure accurate data is provided. (SR-72459)
  • Add index TX_CR_ACCTG_LN to enhance query performance. (SR-72923)

CAPPS HR/Payroll Changes

  • Adjust how value lists are used in the Schedule Adjustment Hours and Time and Labor Rules to eliminate hardcoded TRCs and refactor inefficient logic, with no new calculation changes added. (SR-60132)
  • Correct the prior state row insertion process (TXHR1005) so the employee’s state service date is accurately calculated when overlapping service dates with the same termination/hire date exist. (SR-67135)
  • Implement missing negative balance edits for all comp time plans shown in the timesheet leave balance grid, ensuring employees cannot use more time than they have available. (SR-69428)
  • Resolve issues that caused the Leave Liability Report by Fund to run to “no success” when GL combination codes had multiple associated rows. (SR-72357)
  • Update the SPRS HR process so that future-dated name and address changes for active employees are processed and transmitted to SPRS once the effective date is reached. (SR-72376)
  • Resolve the ERS payroll contribution process error (“single row returns more than one row”), ensuring the payroll file generates successfully and transmits to ERS without issues. (SR-74459)
  • Ensure an employee’s PSS hazardous duty information is not incorrectly deleted when using “correct history” to remove job transactions that share an effective date but have a different effective sequence than the job transaction that moved the employee out of a hazardous duty position. (SR-75558)
  • Restore the previous behavior of the document status by manager output so the TX_EP_DOC_STATS_BY_MGR query reflects employees who do not have a performance document. (SR-77828)
  • Add Roth savings plans to the Vendor Remittance Report, ensuring accurate reporting and remittance of Roth contributions. (SR-75852)
  • Resolve the Employee Monthly Time Report returning no data for agency 802, caused by that agency’s unique dynamic security configuration. (SR-75936)
  • Ensure the hazardous duty TL LWOP program accurately reflects all TL LWOP during the employee’s current employment period. (SR-77036)
  • Ensure the Employee Monthly Time Report, Leave Balance Detail Report and Reports to Document Status display correctly without triggering the think-time PeopleCode event error. (SR-77138)
  • Update the Position Exception Report to compare maximum effective dates and sequences less than or equal to the selected AsOfDate across the Manage Position, Manage Job and Job Code tables, ensuring accurate identification of discrepancies. (SR-77164)
  • Modify the CAPPS-to-mainframe unclassified job code interface so that it sends the SHORT JOB TITLE field from the job code profile and only transmits data from the “parent” unclassified job code unless no parent exists. (SR-77364)
  • Implement required tax rate changes and other Oracle bug fixes as part of tax update 26A and remaining patches of 25D. (SR-77542)
