Improving Financial Reporting and Audit Model – Data Entry Luke Sheppard May 2019
Facilitate the removal of the closing package • Reduce redundant reporting • Reduce manual reporting required by entities • Identify gaps in reporting model that could be automated in the future • IFRAM – Project Goal for FY19
Previous to FY19 • GTAS ATB Submission Transferred to GFRS • GFRS Manual Data entry for notes • Closing Package Sign off in Approvals Module • Closing Package attached in GFRS and Sent to OMB Max for collection • IFRAM – History
GTAS Data Submitted and Certified • GTAS Creates FS and Notes data (ones that can be crosswalked) • FRAD Accountants use this data to assist in data entry into our internal system • A-136 Note 44 (Reclassification Adjustments of AFR due to FR Compilation) is a key point in removing the need for the Closing Package for FY19 • FRAD accounts use these sources to manually fill out Entity note data • IFRAM – FY19
Fiscal Service will use a data hierarchy when determining priority of data usage • Priority Order • Notes Crosswalk (GTAS) • AFR 1-1 • Agency Data Calls/Communications • Data Heirarchy
