Back in 2010 infrastructure was added to try to attribute fund debits in acquisitions to funding source credits, e.g., to track expenditures of grant funds.
This feature barely has a user interface: the only way to calculate debit attributions is torun the stored procedure acq.attribute_debits(), which in turn truncates the table acq.debit_attribution and repopulates it with its best guess based on the effective and deadline dates set for the funding source credits.
I suspect this may be a necro-feature, so I would like to find out if anybody is using it? Since it's making an educated guess about which funding source credit applies to a given fund debit, I would also be curious to know if that's sufficient for tracking (say) grant expenditures.
I think one of the following should be done:
- If the feature is being used, it should be documented and a staff UI provided to activate it.
- If the feature is not being used, it should be considered for deprecation and removal (and/or relegation to an optional add-on component).
- Development should be considered to allow acquisitions users to precise state that a particular funding source credit applies to a debit. |
