USAS Coding Instructions

95 Report Distribution Profile

Centrally defined. The Report Distribution Profile (95) screen information is used by the report distribution subsystem to control remote printing of reports. This profile is also used to designate the information that will be printed on the banner page for each report. The banner page includes all fields on this profile. Reports are sorted by agency, distribution code, requestor, request number and report ID.

There are multiple control key combinations for this screen. All agencies must have an agency level default report distribution profile set up in order to properly receive USAS reports. The control key must be entered in one of the following combinations.

Enter the two-digit request number that corresponds to the specific report request on the 91 screen for a report-level profile. The REQUESTOR, REQUEST NO and DIST CODE fields must also be entered.

Leave blank for the agency-level and requestor-level default. Blank is a valid value and will be stored on the table as part of the control key for the profile record.

DIST CODE (Control key – Required)

EFF START DATE (Optional)
Enter the eight-digit effective start date (MMDDYYYY), which identifies when the information established on the profile record becomes accessible for system processing. Leaving this field blank causes the vendor/payee number to become immediately available for system processing, and the effective start date defaults to the current date.

EFF END DATE (Optional)
Enter the eight-digit effective end date (MMDDYYYY), which identifies when the profile record is no longer accessible for system processing. Leaving this field blank causes the profile to have no effective end date; therefore, any system processing using the profile record will not be restricted by the effective end date.

LAST PROC DATE (System generated)
Displays the last process date. The system defaults to the last date (MMDDYYYY) that any online modification (add or change) was made to the profile record.

Function Key Definitions

F1 (Help) Automatically links to the News/Help Table (90) screen. Will transfer to the appropriate type of help depending upon the screen and activity the user is on at the time F1 is pressed.
F3 (End) Returns the screen to the menu associated with that screen.
F4 (Interrupt) Initiates or ends an active interrupt. When ending an active interrupt, F4 returns the user to the original screen showing the same information as was on the screen when the active interrupt was initiated. This does not undo the last action.
F6 (Process) Submits transaction data to the edit process. If the edit process is successful, an acceptance message is produced, and the profile record information is stored in the system. If the edit process is not successful, an error message(s) will result. Retains current information on the screen upon completion of processing.
