Issues with the current process l Lack of common structures l Inconsistent reporting 5
Issues with the current process – cont’d l Redundant reporting and time-consuming reconciliations Current business process: FACTS II users: IRAS users: FACTS I users: IFCS users: l submit 4 times a year submit once a year confirms data 4 times a year with the fiduciary agencies Timeliness 6
Three Types of Inconsistencies 1. Inconsistent data in Agency Statements vs. the Financial Report of the U. S. Government. (Solution: GFRS and GTAS) v 2. The “plug”: $30 billion Inconsistent data in agency financial statements vs. agency monthly reporting to Treasury and Warrant and NET transactions (Solution: GTAS) v v Non-expenditure transfers: $25 billion Buy-sell: $31 billion 3. Agency financial statement data not consistent with USSGL guidance (Solution: GTAS) Shared responsibility, in case you think it’s just an Fiscal Service 7 problem l
No Edits in IRAS Reports IRAS compares agency reporting and notifies both parties of mismatches. Agencies review their own data and claim they are correct. The out of balance condition remains. Minimal progress is made. 8

What is new and different about GTAS? 13
New features of GTAS l 24 x 7 availability to all users for pre-work on trial balances l No online data entry – bulk files only l More than one user can be assigned to a TAS l Combined trial balances – budgetary and proprietary data l Always a full trial balance – no more supplementals! l More edits against the central accounting data l FACTS I fund family reporting goes away – all reporting by TAS now l Business Lines, BETC, and UCAD for new and improved editing 14
New Concepts: Business Line and BETC l Business Line- Indicates the type of activity being reported (e. g. funds held outside of Treasury, Borrowings from the Public, Investments in US Treasury Securities, and Investments in Agency Securities). It represents a BETC (or combination of BETC). l BETC (Business Event Type Code) refers to an 8 -character code that indicates the type of activity being reported (e. g. receipt, disbursement, etc. ). v Determines the transaction effect on the Treasury Account Symbol’s Fund Balance with Treasury. v BETC replaces transaction codes and standard sub-classes but at a more intuitive level of detail. 15
Examples of Business Line and BETC 16
Year-End Transactions 17
Two Types of Year-End Transactions • Cancellation of undisbursed balances • Balance adjustments related to indefinite appropriation authority 18
Current Cancellation Process Example: • • • Date – September 30, 2009 Account – 20 04 1801 Account Statement Balance = $1, 000 Process: FACTS II Submission SGL 1010 SGL 4350 2108 Column 4 • • • - $0 $1, 000 Note: The 2108 data is transmitted to FMS’s central accounting system and generates the cancellation transaction. Results: • Account Statement Balance = $0 19
Future Cancellation Process Example: • • • Date – September 30, 2009 Account – 20 04 1801 Account Statement Balance = $1, 000 Process: GWA/ATM Submission Application will display a list of accounts and balances to be cancelled User will select accounts User will certify selected accounts • • • - Note: GTAS will still require SGL information Results: • Account Statement Balance = $0 20
Cancellation Transaction GWA/ATM Screenshot Continuous Balance Updates Select one, two or all accounts 21
Current Indefinite Adjustment Process Example: • • • Date – September 30, 2009 Account – 20 X 1801 Account Statement Balance = $1, 000 - Obligated Balance = $100, Unobligated Balance = $900 • Process: FACTS II Submission SGL 1010 SGL credit 4391 2108 Column 4 • • • - $100 $900 The 2108 data is transmitted to FMS’s central accounting system and generates the indefinite adjustment transaction. Results: • Account Statement Balance = $100 22
Future Indefinite Adjustment Process Example: • • • Date – September 30, 2009 Account – 20 X 1801 Account Statement Balance = $1, 000 - Obligated Balance = $100, Unobligated Balance = $900 Process: GWA/ATM Submission User will select an account User will adjust the balance to reflect obligated balance • • - Note: GTAS will still require SGL information Results: • Account Statement Balance = $100 23

Data Standardization and CGAC 26
FMS Transition to CGAC l CGAC - Common Governmentwide Accounting Classification Structure v v Standardization of financial data commonly used in federal accounting. http: //www. fsio. gov l GTAS will be CGAC only. l Other FMS applications will accept data in old and new formats for an undetermined amount of time. 27
CGAC: Component TAS Format Field Name Description Size Example Allocation The agency identifier of the agency receiving funds through an allocation transfer. Transfer Agency If Department Transfer does not apply, it shall be spaces. Current 2 digit Identifier department codes will be right justified and zero filled. 3 011 Agency Identifier of the Account Owner. Most current 2 digit department codes will be right justified and zero filled, although there are some exceptions. 3 014 Beginning Period In annual and multiyear accounts, identifies the first year of availability under law of Availability that an appropriation account may incur new obligations. If single/annual year account, shall be same as Ending Period of Avail.

Use of Central Accounting Data - UCAD l Concept Data in STAR/GWA = FACTS II = FACTS I For example: Warrants, Non-expenditure transfers, Expenditures transfers, etc Purpose l To improve interagency eliminations by reconciling transactions and balances directly to Treasury’s Central Accounting data (authoritative data) 42
UCAD – cont’d Benefits l To address the reporting inconsistencies v In agency financial statements vs. agency monthly reporting to the Treasury v Agency financial statement data not consistent with USSGL v One-to-one relationship from the Central Accounting System to year-end financial reporting l UCAD won’t resolve all intragovernmental differences, but it acts as a tool to reduce the differences that are reconcilable against the Central Accounting Data, the authoritative data. 43

Transitional Process before GTAS l l l Monthly UCAD reports for the Appropriation Transfers and Non-expenditure transfers categories are available to the agencies via FACTS I/GFRS website Quarterly IRAS vs UCAD reports for the Appropriation Transfers and Non-expenditure transfers are available to the agencies Agencies are required to submit full ATBs by the 3 rd quarter, 2009, instead of just the “F” transactions (TFM, Section 4706. 30 b) Verifying agencies will be able to generate the UCAD reports from the Fiscal Service website on the 8 th work day of each month. In addition to the Material Differences Report, there will be a Part II that will consist of differences in UCAD vs. IRAS, TP “ 00” and “ 99” (TFM, Sections 4705. 75, 4706. 30 d, and 4706. 30 e) 47

Frequently Asked Questions 53
FAQs 1) Will the due dates be the same for FACTS I & II when GTAS is implemented? Ø Yes. There will be one set of due dates for both the budgetary and proprietary reporting. 2) Ø Will beginning balances be collected every quarter? No. Beginning balances will be collected one time because beginning balances should agree with the closing balances of the previous year. This is an edit in FACTS II and the same edit will be in GTAS. If beginning balances have to agree with the closing balances of the previous year, there’s no need to submit beginning balances every quarter. 3) Will the data in GTAS be populated in line items in GFRS? Ø Not initially. We will consider the option for future enhancement if audit coverage is extended to the SGL level. 4) Will independent agencies be reconciling intragovernmental differences when GTAS is implemented? Ø FMS will discuss the possible modifications to the process. 54
FAQs – cont’d 5) How will UCAD assist intragovernmental differences that relate to accrual basis? Ø UCAD will not resolve all intragovernmental differences. UCAD can only resolve the intragovernmental differences that relate to authoritative data such as transfers, fund balance with Treasury, and many others. The management of each agency should enforce the correct reporting methods according to the FASAB and FASB standards for accrual accounting. In addition, agencies must be compliant with USSGL standards. 6) Is Agency Account Extension Code required in GTAS? Ø No. The agency account extension code is an optional field and it is agency specific. 55
FAQs – cont’d 7) How will GTAS resolve Intragovernmental differences with buy/sell transactions, which are currently processed via IPAC? Ø FMS is working on an IPAC front-end that will allow agencies to share information. FMS has taken the lead, at the request of FSIO, to standardize an Inter-Agency agreement and will have a draft ready for Agency comments in September. However, FMS believes that its first priority should be USSGL compliance at all agencies. 8) Are there BETCs for Non-Federal Investments? Ø Yes. There’s a BETC for every type of transaction. 9) Since the Year-end Application in ATM will take care of the 2108 process in the future, will the agencies be required to submit trial balances for the related SGL accounts? Ø Yes. The agencies will still need to submit trial balances in GTAS for validation and edit purposes. 56
