Project Company Validation

Effective September 1, 2000, NCAS policy is being updated to validate data keyed into the Project Company or Project Code fields on all input screens.  These two fields are most often used in error on the Invoice Worksheet 1 screen within the Accounts Payable module.

Previously, invalid codes in these fields caused the transaction batch to post to SBM with a batch header error.  Once the policy is updated, NCAS notifies the user real-time that an error has been made.  The user must enter a valid code, or blanks, in order to continue processing.  Invalid codes produce one of the following system error messages:

• FC1151 Edit Rules Record for Project Company not Found on GL Custom Ctrl File


This error message means that the user has keyed an invalid code into the project company field (labeled PROJ-CO on the Invoice Worksheet 1 screen).
 

• FC1156 Project Center Description Record not Found for Dynamic Generate Option


This error message means that the user has keyed an invalid code into the project code field (labeled NUMBER on the Invoice Worksheet 1screen).

• FC11780 Operator Not Allowed To This Project Company/Account/Center


This error message means that the user is not authorized to key the transactions to the project company.

While the example shown here is for accounts payable, the project company and code fields are found on the Requisition Line screen, PO Line screen, and all Budgetary Control document input screens.
