Cognos - Grants Reports Update
The Cognos report Grants: Expenditure Enquiry has been updated to allow users to select a commitments only report output.
This will allow users to run the Grants: Expenditure Enquiry report in place of the old Detailed Commitment Enquiry report, and the Detailed Commitment Enquiry report will now be retired.
The Grants: Listing and Budget V Actual Report has also been updated and now includes an optional Task Name parameter at runtime, and Task Name field in the report output.
We would urge anyone with any feedback regarding the grants reports to contact FSG System Support.
