Mosaic Rapid Release: October 2023

Goal: Expand the Financial Reporting Hub – Oct 2023

What has Changed: Two new AP and T&E queries added to the Financial Reporting Hub

Anything Else I Need to Know: These queries will help departments track who is creating vouchers and expense reports and the volume.

Goal: Streamline the process for employees who need to reimburse the University

What has Changed: Previously, if employees were paid in error via an expense report or had a personal expense on a Pcard reconciliation, the process to reimburse McMaster was cumbersome for the employee and both the AP and AR offices.

Anything Else I Need to Know: With the new process, employees can simply reimburse the university via an online bill payment using their Employee ID. AR will post the payment to a clearing account and a new expense report or Pcard reconciliation adjustment will be created to offset the same clearing account.

Goal: Resolve an issue with the automation of Labor Distribution security for Projects

What has Changed: A Principal Investigator reported an issue with access to Labor Distribution information for some of their Projects.

Anything Else I Need to Know: We rapidly found the root cause and resolved the issue both for the PI in question and for others who were similarly affected.

Goal: Expand the Pay to GL Processing Navigation Collection – Oct 2023

What has Changed: We have added 3 new links supporting a new auditing requirement to our ‘Pay to GL Processing’ navigation collection.

Anything Else I Need to Know: We are always happy to modify existing navigation collections to support the most up-to-date requirements for our McMaster community!
