View Errors and Warnings in the Data Grid

In the Data Grid for Unposted Applications in Grants and Scholarships, and for Open Items in Accounts Payable, we’ve added an error column so you can review issues that require action. With this new feature, you no longer need to run edit reports to view data issues.

To see errors and warnings in the Data Grid:

1. Go to:

  • Grants > Applications
  • Scholarships > Applications

--OR--

  • Accounts Payable > Open Items

2. To the left of the Data Grid, click the View Settings icon.

3. Choose to edit or copy an existing view, or add a view in which to add the column.

4. Click the Columns tab.

5. Choose Functions from the drop-down list.

6. Select the error column option:

  • For Grant or Scholarship Unposted Applications, select (App) $ErrorWarning.

  • For Accounts Payable Open Items, select (Open A/P) $ErrorWarning.

7. Click Add>>.

8. Click Save.

Errors and warnings now display in the Data Grid. Errors are prefaced with an “*E” and display first. Errors require action. Warnings are prefaced with an “*W.” Warnings may need action.

Tip: If the error or warning does not display fully, you can drag the cell borders to widen or heighten the cell. To save the current view, right-click and choose Save View Settings.
