| Renewals and ongoing orders | Review of assumptions of ongoing orders and design plans. Dennis Bridges Please link slides here! Type "ongoing order" has a special renewal field with renewal field, renewal interval, review period, manual review. Options "automatic renewal" and "manual renewal". Question: what happens when the renewal date is reached (automatic renewal). Answer: systems renews the order at that date. Order is now not connected to a fiscal year. PO number doesn't change with renewal (single or multiple). Encumbrance will be renewed for the recent year if checkbox is checked. Additional costs for a PO are added with the invoice. Is just entered as payment. No encumbrance are considered. How are encumbrances calculated? Watch minute 8:50 am to 9:10 - reencumbrance sums up all payments for the recent period and calculates that sum as new encumbrance. Reencumbrance for each POL and each fund. If reencumbrance is not possible because of several reasons, order is flagged "alert". Needs more discussion. Annual increases? Not yet addressed. Could be part of renewal information. Renewal process vs. fiscal year roll over regarding encumbrances. Renewal without checked "reencumber" box leads to no new encumbrance. Order status "ongoing" stays as long until it is changed manually. Normally an order is closed automatically when all POL are payed/received. Exception: status "ongoing" - that needs manual action. Chat: Von Scott Stangroom an alle: 02:55 PM So, if I encumber a pile of money and pay for something on a monthly basis (to West for example), the encumbrance amount goes down each month as I pay that month’s bill. How about if I encumber an amount that is over the actual amount I pay? Can I disencumber the balance, since I don’t expect to pay anything more in that subscription cycle. Example: I anticipate paying US$400, but I actually pay only US$380 - can I “release” the $20 that remains encumbered? (this is for ongoing orders). Von Ann-Marie Breaux an alle: 02:56 PM Hi Scott - yes, if you think you're done, you can release any remaining encumbered funds Von Scott Stangroom an alle: 02:58 PM Cool. I anticipate the remaining encumbrance for a one-time purchase, i.e., monographs, the remaining encumbrance is automatically released (assuming there is a balance remaining). Von Virginia Martin an alle: 03:00 PM Agreed on default release of encumbrances for one-time orders, but not for ongoing orders. Von Scott Stangroom an alle: 03:01 PM Should hope you have a choice at rollover time to either renumber the same amount you encumbered the previous FY, OR you can re-encumber based on what you actually paid in the previous FY. Von mir an alle: 03:02 PM +1 Von Scott Stangroom an alle: 03:02 PM not renumber, re-encumber. Von Virginia Martin an alle: 03:02 PM +1 Von Owen Stephens an alle: 03:05 PM And an additional payment may or may not indicate a price increase Von Owen Stephens an alle: 03:12 PM I suspect there could be a role for data import / sub agent integration here Von Scott Stangroom an alle: 03:14 PM Maybe add the ability to increase the next FY by a certain percentage (a figure chosen by Library) over either what you paid the previous FY or what you initially encumbered the previous FY. Agree, these are not go live features. Von Owen Stephens an alle: 03:14 PM So I think the question becomes what a renewal looks like if there is no encumbrance? Von Ann-Marie Breaux an alle: 03:14 PM Yes, exactly, Owen - where the subn agent gives you the anticipated cost for the subn for nex tFY, and you import the encumbrance $$ instead of manually adjusting it | |
