34.  Effective February 1, 2011 the PEN Products Interagency Billing process will be going away!  Moving forward, payments to PEN Products will be treated like paying any other vendor  PEN will no longer build vouchers on the agencies’ behalf

35.  The payment process will be more streamlined and consistent with all other vendor payments  PEN will issue an invoice and the purchasing agency will create an AP voucher copied from the appropriate PO Receipt  There are no changes to the process for placing orders with PEN Products  Internal Service Accounts Must Still be Selected on the PO

36.  There is a updated document posted to the ENCOMPASS website outlining this process  The document is located under ENCOMPASS Documents>Training Documents>Accounts Payable>PEN Products Information>PEN Ordering and Payment Process

38.  If errors are made by entry staff in Fund, Department, Program or Account, it is the responsibility of the agency approver to deny the transaction and send back to the entry staff to correct.  This is important in ALL ENCOMPASS modules; transactions should be error-free when moved to AOS and should have NO edit or budget checking errors. 38

39.  ePro – Encumbrances might be to the wrong fund or account, affecting budget decisions.  AP – Expenditures and related payments in wrong chartfield (fund, department, account, project, etc.) will result in errors in financial information.  AR – Deposits made to wrong chartfields result in money in incorrect fund or revenue account. Also, all entries must be made and approved by last day of month to be included as revenue for the month. 39

40.  GL -- Expenditures and subsequent payments in wrong chartfields will result in errors in financial information and financial statements.  AM – Assets in wrong category result in incorrect asset depreciation; also possible non-asset items entered as assets.  Garbage In, Garbage Out -- When incorrect entries are approved and posted, output from the system will be incorrect. Many management decisions, both at the agency and State level, are made based on this output. This could also result in audit findings. 40

41.  DO NOT DEPEND ON AOS TO CORRECT THESE ERRORS; IN MANY CASES, ONLY THE AGENCY KNOWS THE CORRECT CHARTFIELDS.  We strongly encourage agency approvers to attend the entry classes in order to fully understand this process.

43.  The entire SDO process, including some system processes, has recently been revised and is in the State Accounting Manual, chapter 6, section 6.4.10. A flowchart showing these processes is in 6.5.4 (Appendices).  Remember, the SDO checking account is to be used mainly for non-repetitive purchase that must be paid immediately. Most purchases can be paid through the AOS, as they now process these quickly and also process special requests when needed.

44.  A section for closing SDO accounts has been added in 6.4.10.11 and in the flowchart.  If manual check entries, to verify accuracy of entries, prior to Record and Save, run query SOIAP008.  If system check entries, run this query to verify accuracy prior to agency approval of payment.  If bank fees are charged to SDO account, enter one voucher for total fees for month (see 6.4.2.5 for detail).

45.  Apply for AOS reimbursement ONLY after your checks clear the bank.  How to know whether checks have cleared bank? Run SOI_SDO_PAYMENT_DETAIL public query. Use of this query can help you avoid requesting reimbursements prematurely and possibly requesting reimbursements more than once for the same payment. It can also help to avoid duplicate check entries.
