Article summary

Business Process Overview

Maintenance of Projects includes the review and deletion of projects with no financial Activity. Agencies will have the ability to place a project in Delete status. Prior to deletion, DFS will ensure no transactions have been recorded for that Project. To ensure data integrity and that no records become “orphaned”, the system will not allow a Project with transactions recorded in the Project Costing module to be deleted. This includes transactions associated with establishing a budget or entered manually using the Add Transaction process.
