AGENDA • Approving Carrier Bills • Summary Invoice Processing • Navy PowerTrack Portal Entries • Navy TAC Validation and Assistance • Syncada New User Interface Training
Approve Bills in a Timely Manner • Why is it Important? • Carriers provide a timely service and should be paid in a timely manner • Carriers pay Syncada for this service • We pay Syncada interest if monthly invoice not certified/paid on time • DTR says: Approve invoices within 3 Gov’t business days after they’re posted • To maintain a professional relationship between the Navy and our carriers/Syncada
Navy Payment Delays Report • The trend over the past 4 years is positive. • There’s much room for improvement at many Navy commands • Please improve shipments within 3 Gov’t business days of carrier’s bill • Navy’s goal: To be the best in all of DOD! (By FAR!)
What Causes Rolling Balances • Summary Invoice not certified on time • Invalid TACs cited on invoice • Invalid Lines of Accounting on invoice • All LOAs need a Standard Document number • Overpayments • Systems interface problems • TACs NOT FUNDED
