The Department of FISCal continually makes updates and enhancements to the system based on feedback from our end users. Our goal is to improve usability while maintaining the highest level of security for the state’s data. FI$Cal released the following enhancements in September 2020 (descriptions include ServiceNow case numbers):

    ZZ_PFA_ACT_SUMMARY – This query will extract all certified PFA transaction summarized by PFA source and targets. This will be accessible by users having GL_VIEWER role.
    ZZ_PFA_DETAIL_HISTORY – This query will extract all Certified PFA transaction details from Journal header, Journal Line and LD Accounting Table. This will be accessible by users having GL_VIEWER role.
    ZZ_PFA_CASH_RECON_QRY- This query will extract all journals with PFA Journal source (12N,11N) having due to/due from accounts. This query will be used to reclass the journal data to the correct PFA accrual account. This will be accessible by users having GL_VIEWER role.
    ZZ_GL_PFA_BCT_QRY –  This query will extract all journals with Journal source for Bond Cash Transfer and Cash Transfer (5BD-PFBC,1SA-PFCT) and their corresponding PFA certification data. This query will be used by SCO to review and approve Bond Cash Transfer journals. This will be accessible by users having GL_VIEWER role.
    The queries have been added to non-confidential access groups “ZZ_CA_GL_CUSTOM” and “ZZ_CA_GL_PS.” These access groups have been assigned to “GL_VIEWER” permission list. (CS0241163)
