The swim lanes may change from page to page within a single business subprocess as more or fewer roles are required to execute sections of the business subprocess.

Process Step Title

Description of Process

1

Request Reissue of Warrant

The Manage ACH Returns and Reissued Warrants process starts with the agency requesting to reprint a warrant. BOSP Payroll Processor confirms if the Agency has Warrant in hand. If the warrant is in hand, the process continues to step 6. If the warrant is not in hand, the process continues to Step 2.


The process can also start when BOSP receives notice from Cash Management that an ACH payment was returned (step 4).


2

Sent Stop Payment to Bank

BOSP Payroll Processor initiates a stop payment to the bank after confirming that warrant is not in hand. 

  • The stop payment will be included in the next Outbound Payroll Positive Pay File (step 3).
  • When a stop pay is sent to the bank for warrants that need to be reissued, the original payment will have a stop pay status of in progress for four business days to ensure the original warrant does not get cashed at the bank and reconciled in Florida PALM before it is reissued with a new warrant number. 
  • After four days have passed, the original transaction will automatically be updated to have a stop pay status of complete.


Once stop pay status is complete, proceed to step 6.

Outbound Payroll Positive Pay File (PRI045)

Review ACH/EFT Failures and NOCs Report

5

Determine ACH Return Should be Reissued

BOSP Payroll Processor identifies an ACH return and determines that the payment needs to be reissued as a warrant.


6

Reissue Payment

BOSP Payroll Processor enters paycheck number of the original warrant that needs to be reissued or the ACH that was returned and runs reissue payment process.


The reissue process will perform validations to verify if the payment can be reissued. If yes, the process will continue as described in 100.3.6 Distribute Payroll Warrants to:

  1. Send a Stop Pay of the original warrant to the bank if the agency did have the warrant in hand via the Outbound Payroll Positive Pay File (PRI045).
  2. Send the issue of the new warrant to the bank via the Outbound Payroll Positive Pay File (PRI045).
  3. Print the new warrant.
  4. Send the accounting templates to reverse the accounting for the original warrant and establish the accounting for the newly issued warrant to Florida PALM’s Cash Management module.


If no, continue to step 7.


7

Notify Agency Payment Cannot be Reissued

BOSP Payroll Processor notifies Agency that payment reissue was not successful.

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.
