[Bug] Warehouse inventory FDU "complications" #9808

Closed amenity closed 1 year ago

amenity commented 1 year ago

Ronnie emailed @dianamartin and me on 12/22 to report another situation:

I was reviewing the "Ready for JV" list for any FDU related problems. I have concerns about WRK22-169120. From what I've seen so far, it is in the ready for JV report list but it has not had an FDU Review. I think it is in the ready list because there are some items on it that need to be issued so the overall work order status is Needs To Be Issued rather than Review Needed. That apparently lets the work order bypass the FDU Review queue when determining whether or not it is ready for JV.

I previously submitted a DTS request on this issue but it does not appear that it has been resolved. If I had not done this manual review of the list and seen this, it looks like about $34K would have been charged to the default operating budget FDU rather than to the capital FDU that I would enter when I did the FDU review if it went to the FDU Review queue. What can I do to help get the Data Tracker revised to prevent this from occurring in the future?

In this case, he manually added the FDUs so that Finance could submit an accurate JV processed on time.

Important note: AMD wants to change the way they do inventory and work orders, so fixing this bug might not make sense if we are going to refactor it.

Today in sprint planning, @dianamartin and @maccallump discussed the proposed workflow changes that was initially developed with Van and why it hasn't been working for AMD...

Someone in Finance should weigh in on what's even necessary in the JV reports, e.g. if it's less than $500, it shouldn't even be included in JV reports.

*JV = "Journal Voucher" - when something is added into AIMS
