Alternate Hierarchy Administrators can use the data entry page to make mass edits, additions and/or deletions to existing alternate hierarchies. They can also use the data entry page to migrate entire hierarchies between FAST environments. The data entry page is located in the Alternate Hierarchy Admin pages.
The data entry page can be executed on any one of the four coding elements (Fund, Orgn, Acct, Prog), and can include one or more specific Alternate Hierarchies (or leave blank for all).
The reporting data entry page can be used in a number of ways.
Here are a few sample scenarios:
Delete a mass number of records.
Move a mass number of records to the UNASSIGNED node.
Change a mass number of Description values.
Export a mass number of records to Excel and/or Import a mass number of records from Excel (for instance moving them between FAST environments and/or between Alternate Hierarchies in the same environment).
Use the "Reconcile" button to reconcile your changes against your ERP; this will ensure that all rules have been adhered to and automatically re-add any deleted baseline (default) nodes and add them to the UNASSIGNED node.
Use the "Refresh" button to push any edits, additions or deletions to your summary reports for immediately use.
