Report Description
This report contains various types of information meant for departmental administrators who deal with financial systems or the general finances of a department.
It includes information on departmental users of various financial systems (Unit4, Concur, CentreSuite), items pending in workflow in Unit4 (requisitions and invoices), and open purchase orders.
The key uses of this report would be to identify inactive users for whom a deactivation request should be submitted to Finance, to follow up on outstanding workflow tasks, and to identify open purchase order lines that should be closed.
Data Security
This report is subject to the reporting access data control hierarchy used in Unit4 (Org Unit and above only). An individual’s position in the data control hierarchy will determine how much or how little information will be returned when viewing this report.
Department Administrators have reporting access at the Org Unit level and above.
*A single Org Unit for each user has been determined from the Org Unit they are associated with in a Financial System. The Org Unit controls who the report viewer is able to see. In some cases, there are different Org Units associated with a user in the different Financial Systems. This may result in either; unanticipated users being viewable, or anticipated users not being viewable for the report viewer. If there is a discrepancy, submit a Jira ticket (via the button on the report), and Finance will seek to resolve the issue.

Filters can exist for a single visual (visible when that visual is selected, unless filters are specifically hidden), for the whole page, and for all pages.
The main pages in this report have page level filters activated, allowing the viewer to filter all elements on a page according to the desired criteria. These are available without having to click into specific visuals.
