  • The Cost Type field was introduced in CA PPM 13.3, but had some limitations because it wasn’t available in certain financial areas.  The CA PPM 14.3 release includes the addition of Cost Type in the Cost/Rate Matrix, Chargebacks, Transactions and WIP Adjustments.  This Technical Trick assists you in moving from Charge Code to Cost Type.
  • JasperSoft as two font databases – one for display and one for pdf exporting. Not all fonts in the display database are in the exporting database. If you find you are not getting the proper fonts when exporting to PDF from JasperSoft this tech trick will show you how to add the missing font so your report exports as expected.
  • Styles can be applied to reports in two ways. The first is to select the item and apply a style directly to it.  The other is to apply a style to an entire report. When an item has had a style directly applied to it the application of a style to the entire report will not change the styles with manual styles applied. The manual styles override the entire report style application. This trick shows you how to find and remove manual styles.
