Source Transaction Number Displayed on Related Burden Transaction
As of March 21, 2022, burden (IDC) transactions will now display the source transaction that the burden cost was generated from. The source transaction number will be populated for older burden transactions that were generated after November 2021.
Upfront Validation of Project Cost Adjustments Before Initiating Approval Workflow
As of March 21, 2022, view validation messages in real time when adjusting a single project cost. When a validation message occurs, users must take corrective actions prior to submitting an adjustment for approval. These validation messages only apply when adjusting a single cost, not when multiple costs are being adjusted at once. We will continue to work with Oracle for upfront/clearer validations for multiple costs
Please note that not all violations will result in an error message as they rely on derivations that are performed later in the adjustment process (for example, budgetary control). As a best practice, navigate to the Adjustment History to confirm the Adjustment Status.
In the example below, EI date = 12/01/2021 and Project End Date = 09/30/2021 displays a validation message.
Known Issues Addressed by Oracle
Fixed in 22A: Required Expenditure Organization in Awards > Manage Project Costs
When drilling down to Manage Project Costs from an Award, the Expenditure Organization Field was required, restricting the ability to efficiently search for costs. As of March 21, 2022, this field is no longer required allowing for additional search functionality.

Fixed in 22A: Slowness when selecting mass costs to be transferred
When selecting multiple costs to be transferred, the system has a lag with indicating which rows are selected. The mouse needs to stop displaying as a spinning blue circle before the next cost can be selected. As of March 21, 2022, users should be able to more quickly select multiple costs on the Manage Project Costs page but you still need to wait for the circling to stop before taking action, but ability to multi select faster is now enabled.
