Inbound Payment Cancellation (API006)

The Inbound Payment Cancellation interface is a flat file containing payments for cancellation.

Perform Interface Error Checking

Edit validations are performed on each interface before the data is allowed to load to the Accounts Payable staging tables. If the file is rejected, all transactions in the file are rejected and the file must be resubmitted once the issue is resolved.

If the file is not rejected, edit validations are performed on each transaction before the data is allowed to load for processing in the Accounts Payable module. Additional edits will be performed during the transaction life cycle.

Rejected transactions are managed through the 120.1 Interface Error Handling Process.

Edit Validations include:

  • File validations
  • Requesting BU valid

  • Request Description field not blank
  • Payment Reference field is not blank and is valid and eligible for cancellation or duplicate
  • Agency Requester Name field not blank and valid
  • Cancel Action specified and valid
  • Cancel Reason Code specified and valid

Accounting Events

Accounting events originate during transaction processing in the applicable source module. The accounting events impact the source module, Commitment Control ledgers, and the General Ledger (Actuals).

  • Source Module accounting entries require user input (I) of the primary line (i.e., expenditure, revenues) with an automated (A) system offsetting line (i.e., payable, receivable) during transaction entry. The source model transaction must pass Edit Check, Budget Check, and Cash Check (on applicable entries) prior to posting the transaction.
  • The Run Budget Check (Commitment Control) process automatically affects balances in the appropriate budget ledger (i.e., appropriation, spendable cash) if the transaction passes the budget check process.
  • After the transaction is posted in the source module, an automated system process summarizes and posts the entries in the General Ledger module to the Actuals Ledger.

The table below provides the most common accounting events applicable to this business process.
