Using the
PTAEO Validator

The PTAEO Validator should be used to confirm the accuracy of PTAEOs. To use, enter the full PTAEO string in the appropriate boxes. Be sure to enter leading zeroes for Project numbers. (Note: If you have only UFMIS charging instructions, first access the PTAEO Peeler, and enter the UFMIS charging instructions.)

If you receive error messages from the validator that you do not understand or need to discuss, contact ga.usersupport@yale.edu

Using the
PTAEO Batch Validator

The PTAEO Batch Validator is used to validate all categories of PTAEO values in large or small batches. Small batches are validated online, while large batches are validated offline and delivered to you via email. The file that you submit must be a tab-delimited text file. Click here for details about the format of this file, and how to create one using Excel.

If you receive error messages from the validator that you do not understand or need to discuss, contact ga.usersupport@yale.edu

PTAEO Validator - More Info
The Validator accesses the validation routines used by the Oracle applications and returns information related to each segment: Project, Task, Award, Expenditure Type and Organization.

PTAEO Online Validator - The validator shows begin and end dates for each segment of the PTAEO as recorded in the Oracle system. For segments that are invalid, an "X" appears along with an error message. In addition to validating each individual segment, the validator also looks at the combination of segments to ensure that the linkages are active for the selected date.

Please note that the validator may not return all error messages on a PTAEO. It is strongly recommended that the PTAEO be re-validated after the error conditions have been corrected.

PTAEO Batch Validator - The Batch Validator returns the same information for multiple PTAEOs. It also allows validation of all categories of PTAEOs - JSA Labor, JSA Non-labor, and Accounts Payable.

Ongoing Account Validation:

If there seems to be a problem with your PTAEO values, or before submitting charging instructions, re-check the PTAEO using the validator. In some instances, awards may have ended, or other problems in which the PTAEO that you are using is no longer valid.
