Top Issues
- Web Travel: We have received questions about how payments are showing up in Web Travel. There is a known Issue with the interface between ConnectCarolina and Web Travel. The project team is working on a fix to this issue so that payments made in ConnectCarolina will be posted overnight to Web Travel. In the meantime, if ConnectCarolina shows payment has been made, the money has been disbursed, even though Web Travel is currently not showing that information. Once the fix with the feedback file has been completed, it will update files for all payments.
- Payroll Journals for B09: The payroll journals for B09 will be posted after hours tonight. Payroll actuals for B09 and liquidated encumbrances for B09 will be available on Monday morning.
