Technical review check

CHK-DEPENDENCYFatal (F)

Where it lives: SACS Web System forms. This check is answered inside the SACS Web System, not from the general ledger export.

CDE's wordingThe exact exception text for this check appears on the TRC screen in the SACS Web System when it fires; it is not reproduced here.

Fatal. The Official Export will not run until it is cleared.

What it means

The check

A form depends on another form that has not been opened and saved first (for example, Form ICR depends on the fund forms, including funds 09 and 62). CDE's exception message names the order to open them in.

How to fix it

Where to fix it

  • Open and save the forms in the order the message gives, then rerun the checks.
In SACS Pre-Flight

Not run from the export

Not run by SACS Pre-Flight: it needs data that is not in the Other Export. When your export carries CDE's own review log, Pre-Flight lists this check under 'Not run here' rather than counting it.

See every check on your own file before the system runs them. Drop a SACS Other Export (.dat) into SACS Pre-Flight: findings with line numbers, free, entirely in your browser. The file never leaves your computer.

When CDE changes the technical review checks, hear about it once. A short note the week the new tables post, nothing else.
