The When & the Why

Have you ever wondered why the balance on the Revenue and Expense Summary Report doesn’t match the balance on the Real Time Grant Report?

 This custom BW report will balance to the RTGR if it’s run after semi-monthly payroll has been updated in BW.

 Be familiar with when the payroll jobs run… http://www.controller.jhu.edu/pubs/calendar/  Run the BW report by grant number instead of internal order number.

Slide 21

Conclusion

You’ve learned how to match the balance on the Revenue & Expense Summary report to the Real Time Grant Report. BW and R/3 reports are accurate reporting tools and they were never designed to match.

Each system updates at different times. Occasionally, after the payroll jobs run, the balances will match. This custom report is an additional tool and helps the user gain confidence in the reports.

If you have any difficulties with this process, please contact your supervisor or your accountant in Sponsored Projects Shared Services.
