ASPEN Corrections Enhancement
Project
Description
 The Corrections module of the ASPEN Admin application isbeingmodified to introduce a set of new
functionalities notincluded in the original release.The enhancements are mainly related to the
implementation of a new review-and-approval workflow(involvingcreation of separateroles for
creation,review and approval of transaction),reorganizingtheCorrections UI to regroup fields based on
user needs and in a manner consistentwith ADE, and updating the FileUpload functionality in
Corrections.
 Corrections is one of the key modules in the ASPEN Admin application and is used primarily to correct
existing spend transactions and submit them back to TDM. The Corrections module also allows users to
create and submit new transactions to TDM.
 Currently the Corrections module is not open to all users to access. The module is used only by a few
people. The review and approval of corrections is handled outside of the system manually by a CSI&R
reviewer, who is responsible for collecting correction transactions in excel files from source system
owners. In 2014, there are open payments expected to be received from different source systems and
this is expected to increase the number of corrections required. This requires the module to be opened
up to a larger number of users, allowing them to enter transactions on their own. However the system in
its current form cannot be opened up to all users, as the absence of a review/approval process might
cause erroneous transactions to be submitted to the TDM. Hence Corrections access is currently
restricted only to CSI&R team and is not open to all users who might need to create corrections.
Additionally, after the introduction of ADE (ASPEN Data Entry), there is a business need to modify the
Corrections user interface and make it consistent with ADE screens.
 The project involves Testingof Application Functionality accordingto the Business Requirements. Testing
of Application involves such that Application works fine such a way that the enhancements works fine
with right flow of Business logic in the application
Roles &
Responsibilities
