XIII-21 Table of Contents (cont’d) Section I Routing & Approvals Introduction Introduction Routing & Approvals facilitates the electronic routing and approval for various types of documents. This module accommodates documents from different modules – Purchasing documents, DBR (Departmental Budget Request) documents and EPA documents. Documents in Routing & Approvals can be viewed in CANOPY or on the FAMIS screens. Routing & Approvals has become more complex with the continuing addition of new document types. Each document type has its own set of rules for routing and the structures can often be different to accommodate these different rules. Document Routing Process Generally, when a document is closed, it is submitted to Routing & Approvals where it follows a pre-determined path for various types and levels of approvals. Most documents go through a Department path first. Once all department approvals have been given, the documents may pass through an Executive Level for higher authority approvals. Finally for most document types, they pass to a Processing Office and follow yet another path. Note that there are documents that can be initiated in a Processing Office and don’t go through the Department and Executive Levels. The chart on the following page shows the process and some of the decision points for documents that are related to Purchasing, Financial Accounting, Accounts Payable and Budget Payroll. The Documents as they relate to the circles on the chart below are: PUR Purchasing related documents: • Limited Purchase • Exempt & Delegated Purchases • Requisitions • Purchase Orders AP Accounts Payable related documents: • Purchasing Invoice Problem FA Financial Accounting related documents: • DBR – Departmental Budget Request PAY Payroll/Budget related documents: • EPA – Employee Payroll Action Introduction (cont’d) Documents to Inbox & Notification to UserEPA ProcessDept Budget Request ProcessPurchasing ProcessFinancial Accounting Management Information System (FAMIS) Routing & Approvals (R&A) Process and Data Flow DiagramExec Level Approvals Required?

User Perspective Summary The first concept focuses on those USERS who approve or sign documents that come to them through Routing & Approvals. Also included as a user are the document creators as they have interest in the authorization of the document. Users access their inbox / outbox, approve or sign documents and perform these functions either using CANOPY (under the Routing TAB) or the FAMIS screens. Office Manager & Delegates Perspective Summary The second concept focuses on the ELECTRONIC OFFICE MANAGERS & DELEGATES and their responsibility for the set up and maintenance of the Routing & Approvals structure. This functionality is ONLY available through the FAMIS screens; there is no equivalent in CANOPY. Security Access User Perspective To get to the Inbox, Outbox and other user features, users need to have screen security for the 910 series of FAMIS screens as seen on Menu 90. Your security officers can assist with this task. To access particular documents, the user may need to have entity security for that department of the accounts on the document. Office Manager & Delegates Perspective To maintain the structure of the Electronic Office, the user needs to have screen access to most of the screens on Menu M91. Your security officers can assist with this task. Essentials of Document Routing Each document, when created, is given a unique identifier. When a document is submitted to Routing & Approvals, it follows a pre-determined path for approvals. Here are some concepts and terms to help you to understand the Routing & Approvals process. Basic Concepts (cont’d) Routing Document Identification Numbers Each routing document is uniquely identified with a three part configuration which includes the System Member code as well as the document number. In addition, on the front is tagged the type or form of the document. Examples are PRQ07L433242 and EWR230568457 or DBR04U569448. The routing document identification number consists of these three parts: Document = PLP01L010014 PLP 01 L010014 Document Number A&M System Member Code Document Type (Form) (PLP=Purchasing Limited Purchase) Multiple Departments on a Document When a document requires authorization from multiple departments, documents route through the appropriate routing structure for the first department, then continue on through the routing structure for the second department and so on until all Department routing has been satisfied. Different types of documents may have different rules – for EPA documents, the department routing list is built automatically as the document information is entered. For DBR documents, routing for approval is only through the Source department with a notification copy sent to the Destination department. If a department is on the document, but is not set up in Routing & Approvals (can be viewed on the Department Table, Screen 860), there is a message in the routing history to that affect and that manual routing may be necessary. Electronic Offices The Electronic Office provides the mechanism to efficiently manage the approval process. The purpose of the Electronic Office is to define the path(s) that documents will follow. There are three levels of electronic offices: Department, Executive and Processing Office. Generally, at the Department Level, each Electronic Office represents one department, although other aggregates may be created. Electronic Desks Desks are electronic ‘approval’ or ‘review’ stations. A routing path is constructed by linking desks together in a linear fashion within an electronic office. People are ‘put on’ or assigned to a desk. There can be many persons on one desk and one person can be on many desks. There are three basic types of desks: Creator desk, Approver (review/approval) desk and Signer Desk. Basic Concepts (cont’d) Creator Desk This is a special desk that serves one main purpose: the people who are on this desk receive notification copies of document rejections. A creator of a document does NOT have to be on the Creator Desk to create and submit a document to Routing & Approvals. Document ‘Creator’ – What does this mean? The creator ‘submits’ the document for routing and the system considers this the first approval of the document. The person who submits the document for routing is the official creator regardless of who else may have entered document details. Approver Desk This is a general desk that can be created to insert multiple approvers into a Routing Path. These approver desks are also used at the Executive Level and Processing Level. Approvers vs. Signers Essentially, approvers and signers are equivalent. At the Department Level, all documents must have approval from someone on the Signer Desk. Signer Desk This is always the last desk in the Department path and is considered the official signoff on the accounts for the document. Required Number of Approvals and Signatures At the Department Level, the rule is that two people must ‘approve’ or ‘touch’ the document and the creator is considered the first approval. Therefore, only a Creator and a Signer are required for the document to pass this level. Substitute Approver or Signer An electronic desk can have multiple primary and multiple substitutes assigned. It is recommended that ALL desks have at least two people to avoid delays in advancing documents within Routing and Approvals. Primary assignees all received the document in their respective Inboxes. When the first person takes action on the document, the document ‘goes out’ of all Inboxes. Substitute assignees do not receive the documents in their respective Inboxes, but must access the Inbox of the person for whom they are substituting in order to take action on the document. Basic Concepts (cont’d) Routing Paths Documents follow routing paths that can go from very simple to quite complex. Routing Paths are defined for each of the Routing Levels - Department, Executive, Processing Office. Different paths are defined based on document type or form (EPA, PLP, DBR, etc.). There are many variables in designing the routing paths. A simple Department Level path consists of a Creator Desk and a Signer Desk, for example. This satisfies the rule that two people must ‘touch’ the document. SIGNER DESK Tom Craig (s) Janice CREATOR DESK Mary Jim A more complex path consists of a Creator Desk, Approver Desk and a Signer Desk. The addition of a third desk gives Sandy or Terry the opportunity to review or approve the documents. SIGNER DESK Tom Craig (s) Janice APPROVER DESK Sandy Terry (s) Susie CREATOR DESK Mary Jim Routing Through Levels Complex paths are often constructed to take advantage of the flexibility available. The path that an individual document takes may actually consist of multiple desks on multiple paths and across different levels depending on its requirements for approval. There are three Routing levels: 1. Department: Routing through the Department Level includes the department(s) defined for the document type. If there are two departments required, the document routes through one department and then the second department and so on until all departments/accounts are covered. Basic Concepts (cont’d) 2. Executive: Routing through the Executive Level allows for approval and review by a higher level of the organization. Departments are assigned to an executive level and then documents for that department will route through the executive structure. 3. Processing: Routing through the Processing Office Level allows for special processing for certain types of documents. For example, Requisitions all go to a Processing Office where they are processed into a Bid or Purchase Order. Basic Concepts (cont’d) Section III Inbox, Outbox, and Other Functions User Perspective CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions The User Perspective focuses on the approvers and signers and how they access their routing documents for approval. Functionality includes the Inbox, Outbox and the Substitute Inbox and Outbox where a person can approve or reject the documents that have been sent for approval. In essence, the basic process of approving (or rejecting) documents is fairly simple. Given proper security, each user has a Document Inbox which collects all the documents that are routed to the user for various reasons. In addition to ‘approve’ and ‘sign’, there are notification copies sent to the creators. CANOPY presents an easy website for you to access your documents, review them and approve or reject as you wish. All of this functionality is also available on the FAMIS screens. The FAMIS screens are included both at the end of this section and in full detail later in this manual. CANOPY Tabs You can access Routing & Approvals two ways from the Main CANOPY page: • the ROUTING TAB at the top of the page • the Routing – Document Routing Module link under Available Modules. Notice the INFO message that there is 1 item in the Inbox!! ROUTING CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions (cont’d) Four TABS provide the access to the user’s Inbox, Outbox, Document and Profile Information. views_fields ContextMenu CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions (cont’d) Inbox Tab (includes the Substitute Inbox) The Inbox displays the routing documents that have been routed or recalled to you for approval, notification, or addressing a problem. For example, when a document such as a Limited Purchase (LP) or an Exempt Purchase (EP) is closed and routed, a routing document is created – this is the document that is routed and displayed in the Document Inbox. As an authorized substitute, you can access the Inbox of the person for whom you are substituting. While you can see all documents in the person’s Inbox, you can only access those that are applicable to you being the substitute. The person may be on various desks and you may not be the substitute on all of them. ICONS Column Sort – all columns can be sorted by clicking on column header PDF Print creates a PDF version of the document Notes displays any notes associated with the document Time changes display to include time of arrival Default View changes view based on document type, like EPA Column Filters opens column filters Light bulb displays ten most recently used documents CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions (cont’d) Filters Filters help you to look at only certain types of documents. You may filter the displayed items to show a specific document by: • typing the document number in the field provided • choose the ’Yes’ option next to “Approval Only” box to only show just the documents that need to be approved Click on the “Submit” button to apply the desired filters and display the documents. Substitutes When you are a substitute for another person, you have the ability to view their Inbox and take action on those documents for which you are authorized. In the box next to “Search for Substitute:” enter the last name (can be only part of the name) to begin the search. Use the drop down list to choose the correct person. In the box to the right of “Substitute:” you may select “My Inbox” or “My Creator Desks” to alter the items displayed on your page. Click on the document identifier to access the approval page. You can only access those documents for which you are authorized. Quick Actions If you are the primary approver or signer (not a substitute), you can click on the word Approve or Discard or Discard All FYIs to register a quick action. CLICK ON THE DOCUMENT TO REVIEW THE DETAIL. CANOPY SWITCHES YOU TO THE DOCUMENT TAB AND DISPLAYS THE FULL DOCUMENT. ContextMenu CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions (cont’d) Outbox Tab (includes the Substitute Outbox) The Outbox displays all routing documents that you have taken action on. If the document is in “Finished” status, you will need to check the “Include Finished” box under “Filters:” to include these documents in the display. The Substitute Inbox and the Substitute provide access to another person’s Inbox and Outbox. You may access these features if you are a substitute for the person on any desks. You will see the list of all documents but will only be able to access those documents on the desks where you are a substitute. Column Sort – all columns can be sorted by clicking on column header Lightbulb displays ten most recently used documents Filters Filters help you to include certain types of documents. You may filter with the following: • type the document number in box or use the light bulb to choose a document • enter Start Date and End Date to change the default time frame • choose the ‘No’ option next to “Include Finished” box • choose the ’Yes’ option next to “Include Discards” box Click on the “Submit” button to apply the desired filters and display the documents. CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions (cont’d) Substitutes When you are a substitute for another person, you have the ability to view the documents in their Outbox. In the box next to “Search for Substitute:” enter the last name (can be only part of the name) to begin the search. Use the drop down list to choose the correct person. In the box to the right of “Substitute:” you may select “My Outbox” or “My Creator Desks” to alter the items displayed on your page. Click on the document identifier to access the full document detail. You can print a PDF version of the document using the icon. CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions (cont’d) Document Tab The document tab displays the full detail of the document. If you have ‘Paging On’ set to blank (see Profile Tab), you can scroll up and down through all the details of the document. You can print a PDF version of the document using the icon. Document Details Be aware that the type of data or sections that are displayed are dependent on the type of document. Hence, you will see different sections for an EPA document than for a Purchasing document. Purchasing document: Document Information Vendor Information Departments Line Items Account Summaries Notes Routing Notes Document History Current Location Department Routing Document Held By FYI Copy EPA document: EPA Document Information Position Information Occupant Information Rate Information Funding Source Lines Net Funding Document Changes in Payroll Routing Notes Document History Current Location Department Routing Document Held By FYI Copy CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions (cont’d) DOCUMENT INFORMATION & VENDOR INFORMATION - PURCHASING DEPARTMENT & LINE ITEMS & ACCOUNT SUMMARIES - PURCHASING CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions (cont’d) NOTES & ROUTING NOTES & DOCUMENT HISTORY CURRENT LOCATION & DEPT ROUTING & DEOCUMENT HELD BY & FYI COPY CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions (cont’d) Actions To take action on a document, click on the drop down box and select the desired routing action. Then press the Submit button. The choice of Actions displayed depends on the document and its routing. Possible actions include: APPROVE (APP) REJECT TO CREATOR (REJ) APP(approve) AND ROUTE FOR APP (approval) (FYA) ROUTE FOR APP AND RETURN (FRA) PUT DOCUMENT ON HOLD (HLD) SEND INFORMATION COPY (FYI) DISCARD FROM YOUR INBOX (DIS) **APPROVE (APP)** After review of the document detail, you may approve it by choosing the APP and click on the Submit button. You will see a message for you to ‘OK’. Different types of documents will display different messages. Some examples: CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions (cont’d) **REJECT – (REJ)** If you choose Reject (REJ) and click on the Submit Button, a new box will display to enter Action Remarks explaining why you are rejecting the document. The document goes to the Inbox of the document creator and all who are on the Creator Desk. **APPROVE AND FORWARD – (FYA)** This action records your Approval and then Forwards the document to a person or desk that is outside of the scheduled path. Example of this type of action is to send a document that purchases computers to the computer expert in the department. This requires you to enter either a person or a desk for further routing. CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions (cont’d) **FORWARD AND RETURN APPROVAL – (FRA)** This action Forwards the document (and does not register your approval). When this person approves the document, it returns to you in your Inbox. Then, based on what that person did, you can register your approval or rejection. This requires you to enter either a person or a desk for further routing. **PUT DOCUMENT ON HOLD – (HLD)** This action marks the document on Hold. This is a courtesy hold and does not prevent others from advancing the document. Action Remarks are required. CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions (cont’d) **SEND INFORMATION COPY – (FYI)** This action sends an information copy to the persons or desk requested and does not stop the document from continuing through the routing path. This action requires you to enter either a person(s) or a desk for further routing. **DISCARD –(DIS)** This action discards Notification and Final copies from your Inbox. CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions (cont’d) Profile Tab The Profile tab allows you to customize your CANOPY experience. User Profile In the User Profile section, you can edit your personal information. This includes updating your work address, mail code and phone number. The email address is especially important as it is used to deliver email notifications that there are documents in your Inbox if you choose that option below. Routing Notification Profile The second section allows you to choose how and when to receive email notifications that documents are awaiting action in your Inbox. You may change your settings as often as you wish. Purchasing, PIP and DBR documents can have different settings than EPA documents. Notification Types gives you the choice of receiving notices only for those documents that require approvals. The frequency chooses how often to receive the notification email that documents are waiting. The documents are in your Inbox immediately upon document close, but by choosing Daily or Weekly you will receive the email once daily or once weekly. CANOPY Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions (cont’d) Voided Approvals indicates that you want to receive email notification when a document has been voided or rejected by someone further down on the approval path than you. This indicates that the document was returned to the Creator and must go through all routing again. CANOPY System Profile This section allows you to customize the way that you display pages in CANOPY. Paging On means that you will see a page of data based on the Page Size you set. With Paging On not checked, you can scroll through all the data that is returned to you by a search without going from page to page. FAMIS Screens Inbox, Outbox & Other Functions FAMIS Screens Summary This section gives you a quick reference to approving documents using the FAMIS screens. The Routing and Approval Menu M90 helps you identify which screens to see when working with documents that are being routed. Note that detail of the FAMIS screens can be found in a later section of this manual.

Responsibilities • Creating electronic offices and adding / deleting valid departments • Creating office views and adding / deleting valid departments • Controlling the electronic signature authority by adding or deleting persons on the Signer Desk (office manager & security officers only) • Creating, modifying and deleting approval-type desks • Creating, modifying and deleting office paths Some Members choose to divide the above responsibilities with the Security Officers doing the first two steps. Essentials of Routing Extended Electronic Offices The Electronic Office provides the mechanism to efficiently manage the approval process. There are three levels of electronic offices: Department, Executive and Processing Office. The first step in creating the Routing & Approvals structure is the setup of the electronic offices. The process involves giving the electronic office a title and description, identifying the electronic Office Manager, Delegates, and Default Signer, and attaching units (combinations of departments / subdepartments) to the office. Once the office is created and the departments are ‘put into’ or assigned to the office, the documents from those departments follow the structure and ‘paths’ of that electronic office. Department codes and the department table are integral components of Routing & Approvals. Electronic Routing Views A routing view if comprised of a unit or group of units that routes documents using a common set of creators and signers. With the ability to assign different signers based on document form, the need for different views has been diminished. But this step is still required to set up the electronic structure properly. One routing view is required for each electronic office. Units (departments/ subdepts) are attached to the view, which indicates that these departments are valid within the view. If the office only has one unit assigned, then only one view is required. Electronic Desks Desks are electronic ‘approval’ or ‘review’ stations. A routing path is constructed by linking desks together in a linear fashion within an electronic office. People are ‘put on’ or assigned to a desk. There can be many persons on one desk and one person can be on many desks. There are three basic types of desks: Creator Desk, ‘Approver’ (review/approval) Desk and Signer Desk. 1. Creator Desk The Creator Desk is a special desk that serves one main purpose: the people who are on this desk receive notification copies of document rejections. When a document is rejected, the reason becomes part of the document routing notes and the document is returned to the Inbox of the Creator. If the original creator is unavailable, all others listed on the Creator Desk can access the document information. This alleviates problems when the creator is not available and someone else must look at the document, review the rejection action required and take the appropriate action. There are no substitutes on this desk. Essentials of Routing Extended (cont’d) 2. Approver Desk The second type of desk is an Approver Desk that can be added to a path for one of a variety of purposes. The desk can be used for a supervisor to review the work of the subordinate before passing the document on to the next desk in the path. The Executive and Processing Levels do not use Creator Desks or Signer Desks – ONLY Approver Desks are put in the respective paths. 3. Signer Desk The Signer Desk is always the last desk in the Department path and is considered the official signoff on the accounts for the document. Because of the tie to fiscal responsibility the security on creating / updating the Signer Desk is more restrictive. Only the electronic Office Manager (on Screen 940) can change the Signer Desk (Screen 923), although the security officers serve as the backup and can use (Screen 943) a special screen to make changes to the Signer Desk. Primary vs. Substitute on a Desk A desk can have multiple primary and multiple substitutes assigned. It is recommended that ALL desks have at least two people to avoid delays in advancing documents within Routing and Approvals. Primary assignees all received the document in their respective Inboxes. When the first person takes action on the document, it ‘goes out’ of all Inboxes. Substitute assignees do not receive the documents in their respective Inboxes, but must access the Inbox of the person for whom they are substituting in order to take action on the document. Routing Paths Each document follows a routing path. These paths are created by the Office Manager and Delegates based on the needs defined for the electronic office. These paths can go from very simple to quite complex. There are different routing paths that can be defined for each of the Routing Levels (Department, Executive, Processing). There are different paths that can be defined based on document form (EPA, PLP, DBR, etc.). There are many variables in designing the routing paths. Essentials of Routing Extended (cont’d) The simplest path, for example, a Limited Purchasing document, consists of a Creator Desk and a Signer Desk. This satisfies the rule that two people must ‘touch’ the document. SIGNER DESK Tom Craig (s) Janice CREATOR DESK Mary Jim In this example, Mary and Jim are on the creator desk and have rights and privileges to view documents that are rejected. Tom and Craig are primary signers and Janice is a substitute for them. Next, we have added an approval desk to the path still within the Department level: APPROVAL DESK Sandy Terry (s) Susie CREATOR DESK Mary Jim SIGNER DESK Tom Craig (s) Janice Now we have added a third desk that gives Sandy or Terry the opportunity to review / approve the documents along this path. Susie can substitute for Sandy or Terry for documents on this path. Note that Sandy or Terry may have other documents in their Inbox that are on a different path and or desk where Susie is not the substitute. Routing Through Levels Complex paths are often constructed to take advantage of the flexibility available. The path that an individual document takes may actually consist of multiple desks on multiple paths and across different levels depending on the particular document and its requirements for approval. There are three possible levels to the routing structure: Department Level, Executive Level and Processing Office. The Electronic Documents Profile Screen 950 is the place where the these levels are set by FAMIS Services. While there may be exceptions, here are some common configurations. Department: defines the lowest level of office; may be a single department, several departments, or any grouping of departments and sub-departments (units). By default all offices have Department responsibilities. Routing through the Department Level always includes the department(s) of all the accounts that are on the document. If there are two accounts (belonging to two different departments), the document routes through one department and then the second department and so on until all departments/accounts are covered. Essentials of Routing Extended (cont’d) Executive: defines a higher level of organization; for example, Vice President for Student Affairs which may have several Department offices reporting to it. Routing through the Executive Level allows for approval and review by a higher level of the organization. Departments are assigned to an executive level and then documents for that department will route through the executive structure. Processing: defines an office allowing for handling special processing for certain kinds of documents and is the final stage for these documents. Routing through the Processing Office Level allows documents such as EPA, DBR and Purchase Requisitions to receive additional processing. For example, for Purchasing, requisitions are ‘processed’ into Purchase Orders. Document Forms and Routing Paths Most types of documents begin in Department level routing. Purchasing documents - LP, EP and PRQ - begin in the department. The only document that only begins in the Processing Level is the Purchase Order (PO). Other documents use Department routing including EPA and DBR documents, but both of these documents CAN be initiated in the Processing Office as well. Limited & Exempt Purchase Documents A Purchasing document such as a Limited or Exempt will flow through Department paths and maybe on to an Executive Level path. Generally, these documents do not route through a Processing Office, although they can be set up to do so. After the Executive Level, routing is considered final for this type of document. The next step for these documents is Receiving and Payment. DEPARTMENT LEVEL SIGNER DESK Tom Craig (s) Janice CREATOR DESK Mary Jim Essentials of Routing Extended (cont’d) Purchase Order Documents Purchasing Orders always initiate in the Processing Office and do not require a Signer, although they do require an approval from the last desk in the Processing Office Path. PROCESSING LEVEL APPROVER DESK Tom Craig (s) Janice ‘CREATOR’ Mary Jim EPA and DBR Documents These document forms generally flow through one or more Department paths, maybe through an Executive Level path, but always finish on a path in a Processing Office which ‘value adds’ and gives final approval for posting. However, both of these documents can also be initiated in the Processing Office and not flow through the Department or Executive Levels. DEPARTMENT LEVEL EXECUTIVE LEVEL APPROVER DESK Larry (s) Gary CREATOR DESK Mary Jim SIGNER DESK Tom Craig (s) Janice PROCESSING LEVEL PATH 1; DESK 2 Sally (s) Harry PATH 1; DESK 1 Susie (s) Trey Essentials of Routing Extended (cont’d) Choices of Paths Once a document is submitted to Routing and Approvals, there is the question of ‘Where does it go?’ or ‘How does it know what path to take?’. The document will find the path that is the best fit among the paths available. There is no simple answer here. The accounts, adlocs and departments entered on the document are the first point in determining the routing path that will be followed. The FAMIS department table is key in the Routing structure. Therefore, all accounts and adlocs are required to have department codes attached. Which Department(s)? FAMIS verifies that the accounts, adlocs and departments on the document match the account / department / subdepartment (Screen 6) or adloc as seen on the adloc table in BPP (displayed on FAMIS Screen 861). The document routes through each of these departments. Which Office and View? Using each department, FAMIS then looks to see in which Electronic Office and View the department is valid for that department. (Screens 941 and 920) Which Path? FAMIS looks at the various paths established for that electronic office and, using the best fit concept, finds the best path for the document. Is There An Executive Level For This Department? Some departments may require routing through an Executive Level after completing Department routing. You can see the Electronic Office and Executive Level on the Department Table (Screen 860). Is There A Processing Office Required For This Document? Certain documents are required to route through a Processing Office after finishing routing in the Department Level and, if required, the Executive Level. Essentials of Routing Extended (cont’d) Basic Guidelines for Setting up Paths Generally, these are the basic ways you can create a different path for documents (exceptions are noted): Form or Document Type (like PLP, PRQ, EWR, DBR, etc.) Depending on the form on the document, the document finds the appropriate path and follows it for approvals. The form is designated by three letters. For example, for PLP, the initial letter (P) indicates that this is a Purchasing document and the next two identify ‘Limited’ type. So, each different form can be set to go to a different path. An asterisk (*) in the form field means all forms. So , E** means all forms of EPA documents: EWR, EBR, and EGR. This applies to all document types and all levels: Department, Executive and Processing Levels. Department / Subdepartment (like INRE/FAMIS) Depending on the codes for department/subdept on the document, the document finds the appropriate path and follows it for approvals. The department subdepartment combination used on the document can determine the path. For example, the documents for the department INRE with a blank (or no) subdepartment can be routed differently than INRE FAMIS combination. This applies to all document types and at the Department and Executive Levels. Category (like over $ 10,000) Different paths can be created for documents under/over a dollar amount. When documents require different routing based on a dollar amount, paths can be defined with an entry in the category field. Documents over the dollar amount stated in the category field follow that path for approval. For example, if 1000 is entered in the category field, the path is valid for documents whose total is equal to or greater than $1000. This feature requires the entry of whole dollar amounts to work properly. Any other entry, while may be accepted on the screen, will NOT produce the desired results. The category field is not available for entry in a path that contains an asterisk (*) in the Form: field on Screen 921. This is NOT available for EPA documents. Essentials of Routing Extended (cont’d) Guidelines by Document Type or Form Purchasing Documents – PRQ, PLP, PEP, PPO Essentials of Routing Extended (cont’d) Department Routing (PRQ, PLP, PEP) These purchasing documents route through: • The department for each of the accounts on the purchase document Executive Level Routing Purchasing documents route through any Executive Level routing required by the department. Screen 941 shows whether a Department/Subdepartment are linked to Executive Level Routing. Processing Level Routing Once Department routing (and Executive, if appropriate) has been satisfied, the purchase requisitions (PRQ) route to the Purchasing Processing Office where they generally go to a Central Processing Desk. From here, a person decides which processing path is most appropriate for that document and routes it (using FYP) to the path using the name of the path. Essentials of Routing Extended (cont’d) EPA Documents – EBR. EWR, EGR Essentials of Routing Extended (cont’d) Department Routing The EPA document routes through: • The department of the Adloc of the current position as displayed on the Adloc Table (Screen 306) in BPP or FAMIS Screen 861. • The department for each of the Funding Source Accounts • The department for each of the Requirement Accounts Executive Level Routing The EPA document routes through any Executive Level routing required by the department. Screen 941 shows whether a Department/Subdepartment are linked to Executive Level Routing. Processing Level Routing The EPA document chooses its Processing Office path based on: • the form (EBR, EWR, EGR) • Adloc Screen 306 in BPP where the path name is stored in a field on that screen. This can be seen on FAMIS Screen 861. If blank, then it uses the next rule to determine the path. • Monthly or Biweekly ‘Payroll Indicator’ field stored in BPP – Values A-C are Monthly, everything else is Biweekly The EPA document must be given the final approval in the Processing Office for the Budget Action to post in BPP. Essentials of Routing Extended (cont’d) DBR Documents DBR Essentials of Routing Extended (cont’d) Department Routing The DBR document routes through: • The department for each of the Funding Source Accounts Executive Level Routing The DBR document routes through any Executive Level routing required by the department. Screen 941 shows whether a Department/Subdepartment are linked to Executive Level Routing. Processing Level Routing Once Department routing (and Executive, if appropriate) has been satisfied, the DBR Processing Office path is automatically selected based on: • If data is filled in, the DBR Processing Office Routing Path Table (Screen 529) provides a way to establish a link between the source accounts and the appropriate approval path in the DBR Processing Office. This screen is used to specify paths based on account ranges. Account ranges can be designated expense or revenue. Justification codes can also be used to define the path using Screen 529. Some components define paths tied closely to the source account; others may choose to define paths based on the justification code. If you choose to use Screen 529, ‘name’ the DBR path, then create the appropriate entry on this screen. To complete the work, you must then enter these DBR path names in the appropriate path field on the Processing Office Path Screen 926. Multiple entries can point to the same path. • If no entries are made on the DBR Processing Office Routing Path Table (Screen 529) or a specific source account is not found, the default path on Routing and Approvals Processing Paths Screen 926 will be selected. Special DBR Desk A special DBR Desk is required in each Processing Office path and is unique to DBR processing. This desk is named the ‘Pass-Thru Desk’ (status ‘P’) and is established to capture any errors found in posting. The workers on this desk can see the errors and decide how to handle the items that route there. Normally documents pass ‘briefly’ through this desk on their way to final approval. If a post fails, the document stays on the desk. Workers on this desk are able to: (1) reject the document back to the department (posting failure cannot be / will not be corrected) OR (2) approve it. If approved from this desk, it tries to post again. Essentials of Routing Extended (cont’d) Posting errors occur for many reasons such as when budgets are no longer available, accounts or pools have been frozen or default banks are invalid. Once the document has posted, the approval is accepted and the document reaches Final status. Special Revision Access Special limited access to make changes to the original DBR document has been granted to approvers in the DBR Processing Office. As a primary (or substitute) on a Processing Office desk, you are able to modify the DBR document from the Inbox Document Coversheet. The Corrections PFKEY (PF12) allows you to modify the dollar amount, pool, or mandatory/non- mandatory flag on the DBR document Essentials of Routing Extended (cont’d) Section V Productivity Aids Inquiry Productivity Aids Inquiry Aids for Management of the Routing Structures List Approval Profile Screen 915 Lists a user approval profile that is all the desks a user is on – especially helpful for changes / deletes to access Lists Offices Screen 945 Lists all the Electronic Offices; indicates when office is an Executive or Processing Office Lists Units in Office Screen 935 Lists Units (depts./subdepts valid for an Office List Desks in Office Screen 937 Lists all the desks that are valid for an Office; a desk may or may not be active in a path List Views by Office Screen 936 Lists all the valid views for an Office Office/Desk Workload Screen 938 Lists documents in routing for an electronic office Documents by Dept Screen 918 Lists documents in routing for a department Person Table Screen 850 Lists people, their UIN and location information Dept Table Screen 860 Lists all the department/subdepartments and the Electronic Office and Executive Level User Approval Profile Screen 915 displays all of the approval structures that a person is attached to within each campus code.

Department Table FAMIS provides a table of valid departments for each campus. These department codes are used extensively throughout FAMIS. Both FRS and FFX modules utilize this table. This table is not fiscal year dependent--any changes you make will affect any open year. Screen 860 is used to add a new department to FAMIS by authorized personnel. You can also modify information on existing departments and expire a department to make it inactive. Departments cannot be deleted. Also note that: • School/College – This is the only screen where you can update this field. It will not be a protected field for anyone who has update access to the screen. The School/College: field is also protected if you are trying to modify it on a sub-department. Remove it from the department and all its sub-departments by taking the college off of the department (FISA or FISC). The change will ripple to all of the sub-departments. • EPA Allow Flag – controls the creation on EPA documents and was added for Form 500 processing. Entering ‘Y’ allows the department to create EPA documents, which will be routed through the department. If the flag is off (‘N’ or blank), you will still be able to view payroll data in CANOPY, provided you have the appropriate security clearance to do so. • Purchasing Trn Flag – if not set to ‘Y’ on this screen, FAMIS does not recognize that routing of purchasing documents exists for the department. • Exec Level – a code that can be used as a sort field by many of our reports to group all accounts that report to a specific level (such as a report of all accounts for a Vice President). The values are campus specific so each campus assigns their own values. This screen is maintained and updated by each campus. The information is campus specific.

Office names must be unique within a campus code. A default desk (with the same name as the office) is automatically created for each office with the office manager and delegates as the assignees. Most often the assignees need to be changed to reflect the appropriate persons. This desk can be used in routing paths as desired. The Administrative Functions include establishing the office and adding units (depts/subdepts) to it. TECH NOTE: How to change Processing Office (bottom section of screen) Run XXUPDOFF in FAMISU.

Units consist of department and subdepartments combinations. This allows the units to participate in the paths that are defined for that electronic office. When departments and subdepartments are assigned to offices, on Screen 941, the link for delegation of electronic signature authority is complete. Fiscal accounts "belong to" or are assigned to a department; the department is then assigned to an electronic office. Within the office, documents will be routed to desks for approval. The persons assigned to Signer Desks are those people who have signature authority for the fiscal accounts. Units (depts. / subdepts) can also be assigned to an Executive Office which means their documents will follow the executive path.

Fiscal offices carry the responsibility for control of signature authority on university or agency accounts. They will identify the units, establish the routing and approval offices, and delegate authority to the offices. Changing a Unit to Another Office If a unit is already attached to a view within another office, the office field on Screen 941 is protected.

Documents within a view may pass through a variety of different paths and different approver desks, but always complete Department Level routing at the same Signer Desk with the same set of persons as ‘signers’. Within an office, multiple Department views can be created, allowing for many different combinations of departments and subdepartments. A view represents a grouping of these units that share common signers, but may have different approvers. The Department view is created or modified using Screen 920. For example, Organic Chemistry documents could have Dr. Blue and Dr. Red as signers (i.e. on the Signer Desk) while the units attached to Chemistry have a Signer Desk with Dr. House and Dr. Hall. When, within a single electronic office, different people are needed on a signer’s desk, a new view may be created. At least one Department view is required for all electronic offices.

Additional Functions PF KEYS See the Appendix for explanations of the standard PF Keys. Creator Desks Technically, the document “creator” (for purposes of the Routing & Approval System) is the person who initiates or submits the document to R&A -- either as part of the document close process or by pressing the “Route” PF Key on the close screens. In the routing history, the document will show as “submitted by”. But you do not have to be on the Creator Desk to create and submit documents to Routing and Approvals. The creator desk has a very specialized function. A minimum of two people must be assigned to a Creator Desk. These assignees access documents that are rejected or recalled to another creator’s Inbox using Screen 911. For example, an assignee to the Creator Desk checks another creator’s Inbox in their absence and finds a rejected document. The assignee takes appropriate action on the document. Creator Desks are unique within the office and view. The name for these desks is “CREATE” plus the form. The “blank” form is the default and is used for all forms unless a specific form is created, for example, “CREATE PRQ” for requisitions. There can be a different set of creators for each form type.

Each person assigned to the desk has the ability to access the document and take necessary routing action on it. This may be an ‘approver’, a substitute approver or a person who is charged with reviewing the work of the creator for all documents routed to that desk. There may be multiple primary approvers – likewise, there can be many substitute approvers. Up to 40 people may be assigned to a single desk. To create a new desk it must have at least one assignee.

Approver Desk Process Creating Routing and Approval Desks Documents can be routed to approval desks which sit on routing paths. Routing paths determine which series of desks a document will pass through. Office managers and delegates use Screen 922 to create (or modify) the approval desks and assign people to these desks. Each desk name must be unique within an office. Screen 922 – Approver Desk Create/Modify (cont’d) Approvers are entered by their UIN and are designated as either a primary or a substitute approver. Primary approvers receive all documents in their Inboxes. As a substitute, you go to Screen 911, key in the name of one of the primary approvers in order to see all the documents awaiting approval. Concept of a Substitute on a Desk Substitutes are persons recognized to act in place of primary approvers or signers. When acting as a substitute, you do not receive those documents in your personal Inbox (Screen 910), but access documents in your role as substitute on Screen 911. As the document proceeds through the routing path, it skips a desk that has a primary who has already approved the document. However, documents will not skip over a substitute on a desk. So if you are a primary person on a desk and a substitute on the following desk in the path, the document will not skip the second desk, but will stop at the Inbox of the primary person(s) for approval. Within a level, an individual typically only has to touch a document once - as a creator, approver or signer. (This is also true across the Department and Executive levels – routing will remember the person and not require them to sign again.)

You must be authorized to sign. With electronic documents, the computer audits who can sign and who does sign the documents. The people on the Signer Desk have signature authority on the accounts for the units assigned to the office and view. Signer Desks are only at the Department Level. You can delete a specific “form” desk using Screen 923, but not the default Signer Desk (which has a blank “form”).

The default signer is assigned when the office is created on Screen 940. The name for these desks is “SIGNER” plus the form. The form may be blank (default) or it can be a specific form: for example, SIGNER PRQ for requisitions or SIGNER PLP for limited purchases. There can be a different set of signers for each form type. Only the office manager can update on this screen. In the absence of the office manager, the security officers at the each agency can update the Signer Desk. Screen 923 – Signer Desk Modify (cont’d) The default signer may only be removed from the Signer Desk if there is another assignee and the office manager cannot add himself/herself to a Signer Desk. When the default signer is changed for an office, the new “default” signer is put on the “SIGNER” desk for the blank (default) form and on EACH additional form that exists for the office. If the default signer is not on the form, it is added. If the default signer is already on the form, the signer will be changed to match the new default signer.

Department Level Paths A routing path is a sequential list of desks which specifies the order and destination for routing documents. Generally, different paths may be created for each: . Form (PLP) . Department/Subdepartment combination . Whole Dollar amount category (under $1,000) A default path, with an ‘*’ in both the form and unit fields, is automatically created and will be displayed with key fields in a protected status. The ‘*’ acts as a wildcard and means ‘all’. This default path, which cannot be deleted, ensures that all documents will match a path and be routed.

Screen 921 – Department Paths Create/Modify (cont’d) Routing Path Process There can be up to four desks in each of the routing paths plus the Signer Desk, which is always the last desk. The people assigned to the Signer Desk are those with signature authority for the Department accounts. When a document has accounts from different departments, it will route for Department approval based on the first department specified on the original document, then for Department approval based on the second department and so on until the Department approvals are complete. If any of the departments is attached to an executive view, the document then goes through the appropriate executive paths. When a document requires different routing based on a dollar amount, a path will be defined with an entry in the category field. A document that is over the dollar amount listed in the category field will follow that path for approval. For example, if 1000 is entered in the category field on the routing path, the path is valid for documents whose total is equal to or greater than $1000. The category field is not available for entry in a path that contains an ‘*’ anywhere (i.e. P** is not permitted) in the Form: field.

When a document finishes department level routing, it can pass through an executive path for approval. Use of executive level routing is optional. For example, all the documents for the VPFIN Office will automatically route through an executive path, say to the VPFIN EXEC. Before executive paths can be created, an office must be defined as having executive responsibilities (Screen 940). The view name is always ‘EXEC’. The name of the Executive Level does not have to be the name of an existing office and does not have to be defined on Screen 860.

Section X Processing Level Detail Processing Level Detail Screen 926 provides the ability to create and modify processing paths. Processing paths contain desks that do special processing for certain kinds of documents. For example, purchasing requisitions, when finished routing through all departments, route to the Purchasing Office. In this office workers on the various desks value-add to the document. In the case of requisitions, buyers transfer requisition documents into bid documents and ultimately into Purchase Orders. Documents advance to a processing path when all other routing and approval requirements have been satisfied.

Deleting an outdated or unused Electronic Office is a necessary, but tedious task. Essentially, all steps must be done in somewhat reverse order to the original setup, that is, all the supporting structure must be deleted first. The following page shows the steps in order that must be taken to delete an electronic office with Department Level structure. Department Level See the Chart on the next page for the Steps to deleting an Office and the Department Level. Deleting desks is done on the same screen where the desks are created. Screen 924 for Creator Desks, Screen 923 for Signer Desks and Screen 922 for Approver Desks. There is a Delete Desk field that requires you to key a ‘Y’ to delete. A Department View may be deleted only if there are no Signer Desks, no Creator Desks, no routing paths and no units belonging to the view (except the default Signer and Creator desks and the default path). The Units must be deleted from the View on Screen 920 and then the Department View itself is deleted using Screen 928 Department View Delete. So before trying to delete a view, you must use the appropriate screens to delete all of the attached entities. When the view is deleted, the default Signer Desk, the default Creator Desk and the default routing path are automatically deleted. Executive Level The paths on Screen 925 Executive Paths can be deleted by keying a ‘D’ in the Function field. You use Screen 922 Approver Desks to delete the desks that are used in the Executive Level. There is a Delete Desk field that requires you to key a ‘Y’ to delete. Contact FAMIS Services to assist in removing the ‘Y’ on Screen 940 for an Executive Office. A program, XXUPDOFF, must be run to make this change. Processing Level The paths on Screen 926 Processing Paths can be deleted by keying a ‘D’ in the Function field.

Additional Functions PF KEYS See the Appendix for explanations of the standard PF Keys. Section XIII Detail of FAMIS Screens User Perspective Document Inbox The document Inbox displays all the documents awaiting your action. Documents listed on this screen may be there because they: . are on a routing desk on which you serve as a primary assignee, or . have been forwarded to you specifically for approval or review, or . have been referenced back to you as the creator. When someone routes or re-routes a document, they have the ability to send the document as an “FYI” or “FYA” to an additional person or desk. This allows the submitter to route the document for additional approval before the document goes to the next desk or Signer Desk. Documents will appear in the following order: 1. FRA/FYA documents. This will include any documents (including “rejects” and “recalls”) routed to an individual. 2. All Desk routed documents 3. Information/Notification copies of documents. Within each of these groups, the documents are displayed in document-ID order. The PF keys and some of the fields displayed on Routing & Approvals screens WILL BE DIFFERENT DEPENDING OF THE TYPE OF DOCUMENT YOU ARE VIEWING. For example, a PIP document will display differently than a BID document. Also, if you don’t have approval authority for a particular document, you WILL NOT SEE the Action: field on the Cover Sheet.

A PIP is another name for a Purchasing Invoice Problem document created by your Fiscal Department/Business Office in order to tell you about problems they have noticed with your limited purchase order, exempt purchase order, requisition, or purchase order. Typical problems reported using the PIP document include: (A) the invoice line item amount is different from the amount on your document --OR-- (B) the wrong subcode was used on your document. Why is this PIP in my Inbox? PIPs are sent from the Fiscal Office back to the creator’s Inbox (Screen 910) in order to let you know about a problem that must be resolved before your purchase can be made or paid for. The PIP will contain a description of the problem and suggestions on how to resolve it. The first thing you should do is to find out what problem the Fiscal Office has discovered. To do this, type an ‘X’ next to the PIP document in your Inbox. Next, press to open the Routing Document Information window.

JANICE JORDAN 4555555_____________________ | | ____________________________________________________________ | | ____________________________________________________________ | Section XIV Appendix Instructions Listed below are general instructions that will make your job easier as you use FAMIS to input or view document information. Please become familiar with the information in this reference as it can make your navigation in FAMIS more efficient. 3270 Emulation Keys Special keys and key combinations must be used when working with FAMIS. These keys are known as 3270 emulation keys and may be defined differently by each 3270 terminal or PC emulation software that you are using. Contact your computer support person if you do not know how to identify the following keys on your computer. PF Keys When a key is listed as PFn , PF represents Program Function. Many PCs use the function keys labeled Fn for these PF keys. Others have special combinations of keys to represent the PF keys, for example, on a Memorex emulation, a combination of the ALT key and the number 1 will represent the PF1 key. At the bottom of the FAMIS screens, there are PF keys listed that can assist in the use of the screen. For example, on Screen 104, Voucher Create, the bottom of the screen shows the PF7 with the word ‘Bkwd’ under it. This means that by pressing the PF7 key, the screen listing will scroll backwards. TAB and BACKTAB Keys Use the TAB and BACKTAB keys on a 3270 terminal to move from field to field. This will position the cursor at the start of each field. Most PCs have a key labeled TAB, while the BACKTAB is a combination of the SHIFT/TAB keys. Using the arrow keys, instead of the TAB keys, to move around the screen may lock the computer keyboard. Use the RESET key, then the TAB key, to position the cursor and unlock the keyboard. CLEAR Key The CLEAR key on many PC keyboards is the PAUSE key. This key is often used to clear, or refresh, the screen before typing. RESET Key After pressing to process data information, note the status bar at the bottom of the screen. When the system is processing information, the symbol "X ( )" or . will appear. You cannot enter additional information until the system is finished processing. If any other symbols appear, press your RESET key -- often the ESCAPE key on a PC. Appendix – Instructions (cont’d) ERASE END OF FIELD Key To erase all the information in a field with one stroke, the ERASE EOF key on a 3270 keyboard is helpful. For example, a vendor name is held in context when moving from screen to screen. To change to a different vendor, use this key and the current vendor name in the Action Line will be removed. Now the new vendor name can be input. On most PCs, the correct key to use is the END key on the numeric keypad. HOME Key From anywhere on the screen, the most efficient way to take the cursor back to the Screen: field on the Action Line is by pressing certain keys. For the 3270 terminals, the correct combination is the ALT/RULE keys. On most PCs, the HOME key on the numeric keypad will work. Protected Area The Protected Area is the area of the screen that will not allow the user to enter information. Typing information in the protected area may freeze the screen. Use your reset key and then tab key to release your system when it freezes. Action Line/Context The Action Line is usually the first line of information on each screen. The Screen: field is used to navigate from screen to screen by entering the number of the screen desired. Fields such as screen, vendor, voucher number, account, etc. are often found on the Action Line. Data that is entered on the Action Line will be carried in ‘context’ from screen to screen until changed. For example, the GL account number 032365 is entered on the Action Line of the screen below. That account will be carried in ‘context’ until the user keys a different account in the field. The key must be pressed after entering Action Line data. If a user does not follow this step, all information entered on the screen may be lost and must be re-entered. After pressing , a message will be given at the top of the screen asking for modifications or providing further processing instructions.

Account Title: NAVSO, INC.________________________ Appendix – Instructions (cont’d) Message Line The line above the Action Line is used to display messages to the user. These messages may be error messages or processing messages, such as the one below. F6537 Please enter a valid six digit GL account 002 GL 6 Digit 01/20/92 11:26 Scrolling Through Data Pressing the key will scroll through information listed on a screen. On some screens, there are PF keys to use to scroll forward, backward, left and right. These PF keys are displayed at the bottom on the screens with that function. Help HELP functions are available for many screen fields in FAMIS. Placing a "?" in the blank beside the desired field and hitting will access a pop-up window with specified field information. Another way is to place your cursor in the desired field and press the F2 key. To get out of the HELP function, either select a value and press or hit the PF4 key. The distinction on which key to use will normally be designated in the pop-up window (EX: PF4 = Exit). Escaping from a Pop-Up Window When in a pop-up window, pressing PF4 will usually take you back to the original screen. There are a few screens when pressing will take you back to the original screen. Appendix – Instructions (cont’d) Field Help Using the F2 Program Function Key On selected fields, additional information can be displayed using the F2 program function key. This HELP information is accessed by moving the cursor to the field in question and pressing the F2 Key.

Where ever possible the same assignment has been given to the same PF key, such as PF9 always being the key used for NOTES. Occasionally this has not been possible and a different assignment has been made. The following list is to help you identify the functionality behind the PF keys that you will see on the many screens in Routing & Approvals. Many screens have extended information windows assigned to various function keys that are designated at the bottom of each screen and pop-up window. Placing the cursor (using the cursor arrow keys) on a particular line and pressing the extended information function key will display the pop-up window information for the document or item on that line. Exiting a pop-up window is done by pressing to return to the previous window or inquiry screen. If multiple windows have been opened pressing will return you directly to the screen where you started. From within many of the pop-up windows an additional set of extended function keys may appear to offer further inquiry on the document or item.
