Release 4.54.0 January 22, 2021

The system now generates an Annual Certification record (pdf) when an Annual Certification form receives final approval.  A snapshot is taken of the faculty's records at that time.

Department thresholds that were manually entered are now copied to future fiscal years (FY). Department thresholds are per fiscal year. The result is that some faculty's time and income thresholds maybe be different than it is currently. There will be a communication with each campus admins to address these cases.
