Here are a few tips to consider if you are moving from using the WISE Budget Status Report to this current WESPaC version. While the new WESPaC report fulfills all state reporting requirements, there are differences in how the report functions:

Issue	WISE Budget Status Report	WESPaC Budget Status Report
Budget Balance Type	Allowed selection by Budget Balance Type	Does not include this as a selection option
Summary line descriptions	Used a node level table "budttl" for reading the descriptions of summary lines.	See Maintain Agency Budget Status Descriptions to change summary line descriptions
SPI edits	Provided an option to execute SPI edits.	Does not provide this option. A check is made to determine whether the accounts have passed all three crosswalk validations. If the crosswalk validations are not complete, an error message prints on the parameter page.

Other considerations in using the WESPaC Budget Status Report:

The Cash Basis and Fund Balance versions of the report have the same information in the Revenues/Other Fin. Sources, and Expenditures areas. However the Cash Basis report starts and ends with cash and investment accounts. The Fund Balance report begins with revenues and other financial sources and ends with fund balance amounts.
The Budget Status Report can be run for past years using the groupings that existed during the same period. It cannot be run for past years using groupings different from those existing during the same period.
The Agency and OSPI report layouts have minor differences. In most cases, the OSPI layout is favored. For example:
- OSPI positions the letter heading (for example, the "A." in "A. REVENUES/OTHER FIN.SOURCES ") at the title of the account type group. Agency positions it at the total line (for example, "A. Total REVENUES/OTHER FIN. SOURCES").
