Modifying Default Treasury Symbol Cancellation Date Behavior
Recently I’ve been doing a little work with converting a large number of Treasury Symbols on my current project into Fed Admin. I came up with a quick form personalization to change the default cancellation date logic from ’01-OCT-20XX’ to ’30-Sep-20XX’ and I thought I’d share in case it was helpful to anyone else.
Oracle defaults the ’01-Oct’ as the cancellation date out of the box when creating new treasury symbols. However, in order for the standard year-end processes to execute properly for cancelled funds (& apply the Cancelled Fund closing logic), the treasury symbols need to have a cancellation date in the same fiscal year that the closing process is being run for. Thus the need for the date to be 30-September.
Here are a few graphics along with a video demonstrating the new action that the personalization provides and how to do it.
Here is the new default logic to paste into the value field:
=CASE WHEN :FV_FACTS_TREASURY_SYMBOLS.TIME_FRAME = ‘NO_YEAR’ THEN NULL
WHEN :FV_FACTS_TREASURY_SYMBOLS.TIME_FRAME = ‘SINGLE’
THEN TO_DATE(’30-SEP’||TO_CHAR(:FV_FACTS_TREASURY_SYMBOLS.ESTABLISHED_FISCAL_YR+5))
WHEN :FV_FACTS_TREASURY_SYMBOLS.TIME_FRAME = ‘MULTIPLE’
THEN TO_DATE(’30-SEP’|| TO_CHAR(:FV_FACTS_TREASURY_SYMBOLS.ESTABLISHED_FISCAL_YR+
:FV_FACTS_TREASURY_SYMBOLS.YEARS_AVAILABLE+4))
ELSE NULL END
To see a short demo of how the new default functionality works and more info on the setup, I put together a video which can be viewed here.
Hope that helps out anyone who has ever been annoyed by having to change the default cancellation dates when creating new treasury symbols.
