Reprocess Award Costs

Reprocess Award Costs

Configure the
Reprocess Award Costs Event
business process and security policy in the Financials: Grants functional area.
You can reprocess F&A costs and award revenue on spend transactions that have already occurred when you change these fields that affect award costs and billing:
  • F&A rate agreement.
  • F&A Exception.
  • Basis limit.
  • Waived expense allocation profile.
  • Revenue allocation profile.
  • Spend transaction budget dates.
  • Sponsor.
When you make these changes after billing the sponsor, Workday recommends that you reprocess the award costs and create new customer invoices with the updated F&A transactions.
When you change the sponsor on an award, you can reprocess award costs to update the sponsor on affected spend transactions to the new sponsor, including any spend transactions with budget dates that fall outside the award line dates when the award costs processing rules is set to ignore award line dates.
Reprocessing award costs doesn't update the object classes on the original spend transaction, F&A expense, or award revenue journal lines.
You can exclude closed or reconciled grants from award costs reprocessing by either editing the grants individually or mass exempting them from recalculation.
You can only reprocess award costs for spends on cost reimbursable and fixed amount award lines.
