* This medium impact ticket stated that changes made to Payment Activities ([[:Category:Universal Tracking Application|Level 3 Entity|L3sin the UTA]]) were not being applied after saving.
* This issues prevented some system features from behaving as the client had intended.
||
The client submitted a ticket explaining which grant the error was applicable to, which level of activity, the details of the issue, and a specific example with the application ID.
This issue was resolved once support Support notified the client that these activities were meant to be created through an automated process (called [[Payment Scheduler|'''Batch Create Payment''']]) and not created manually, which is why they were experiencing the issue. The automated process was utilized to create the payment activity and the client was able to continue their work.

||General questions relating to configuration.
||
'''Make Report Exportable'''
* This low impact ticket was submitted asking that we assist a client with making an existing report exportable.
