VALIDATE IWO ALLOCATIONS

Use this screen to review the imported data and validate it against the receiving database structure. Using this screen, you can:

An entry is either accepted or rejected in its entirety. If data is rejected, you can post the failed lines to a suspense account. If you choose not to do this, the entire entry is put on hold and an error report is printed showing the reason for rejection. You can make corrections to the Organization, Account, and Project on the Validate IWO Suspense Transactions screen. Amount fields are non-editable. If accepted, the entry is moved out of the DELTEK_IWO_ALLOC_XXX_SUSP tables into the DELTEK_IWO_ALLOC_XXX tables.

This screen is step nine for external transfers. Use this screen before posting the IWO invoices, if the transfer is between different databases. If the IWO transfer is within the same database, this screen is not necessary.

Location

Identification

Use the fields in this block to create a new parameter ID or to retrieve a previously saved parameter ID. A parameter ID represents a set of screen selection parameters. After you have saved a parameter ID and its related parameters, you can retrieve them using Query.

You can use the retrieved parameters to produce reports and run processes more efficiently and with greater consistency. The saved parameters are also useful and necessary when you want to run the process as part of a batch job. Many users save a unique set of parameters for each different way they run a report or process. When you select a previously saved parameter ID or parameter description, the associated saved screen selection parameters automatically display as selection defaults. The page setup and print options are also included in the saved parameter ID if there are any. You can change any of the associated selection defaults as necessary.

Parameter ID

Enter, or click to select, a parameter ID of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. Choose characters for your parameter ID that help identify the type of selections you made in the screen, such as PERIOD or QUARTERLY.

When you save your record, all the selections made in the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query.

You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. After the default selections display in the screen, you can override the defaults.

Description

Enter, or click to select, a parameter description of up to 30 alphanumeric characters.
