Fiscal Year – End: Transition to Revenue Detail Codes
|
|
|
It is up to the department to ensure the correct detail code is being used behind each product.
|
With fiscal year end approaching, Fiscal Services wants to remind departments with uStores/uPay sites that use deferred revenue detail codes to ensure deferred detail codes are changed to revenue detail codes as of Wednesday, July 1, 2021. Be sure to add this information to your annual process procedures for TouchNet uStore/uPay management.
|
|
Review the Deferred Revenue Guide for instructions on updating your product to a deferred account as well as changing products back to revenue detail codes for the new fiscal year.

uStores: New Features
|
A new feature has been added for uStores, that provides the ability to batch uStores orders for refunding. Marketplace administrators will have the ability to search for and refund a single order, or a group of orders using various filters. Recurring payments can also be refunded. A new Refunds menu option will be available from the left navigation menu.
|
A new Batch Management feature for uStores refunds gives administrators the ability to search for a particular batch and manage the refunds within a batch. Some of the information in the batch management feature: number of refunds included in the batch, number of refunds in error, number completed and total revenue to be refunded.
|
The Fulfillment Activity section will now include an Action gearwheel that will link the user to the Refund page.
|
|

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for TouchNet Administrative Access
The MFA requirement for administrative access to your TouchNet TEST environment takes effect July 9, 2021. Log in to your test environment today to verify access and resolve any log in issues prior to the July 9 effective date.
|
How do I Implement MFA in U.Commerce?
|
When you sign into U.Commerce for the first time after July 9, you’ll get a prompt to secure your account with MFA. Then, you need to designate your “primary” authentication method. It could be any of these options:
|
|
- Your verified email, which was used during the U.Commerce registration process
|
|
- A text message (SMS) to your mobile phone
|
- A phone call to a number associated with your account
|
Once you select your primary method, TouchNet will send you a verification code. Just enter that code when you sign in—and you’re done!
|
|
MFA will be enabled in your production environment in the Fall of 2021. MFA does not affect payers using the system as end-users.
