Online Check (100.4.3)

Business Process Overview

In Florida PALM, off-cycle payroll is defined as payroll processing that occurs outside of the regularly scheduled major payrolls designated by the State of Florida. 

An online check is a type of off-cycle payment that can generate a one-time check the same day as it is entered into Florida PALM. These payments should be requested by agencies directly to BOSP. If BOSP determines that the agency request is critical, a same day warrant can be generated using this process.

Each swim lane is titled with a role, either agency-based or within DFS, and in some cases, are representative of an external entity or system. 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. 

• BOSP Online Check Processor: BOSP role responsible for entering and processing online checks.
• DFS Print Room Operations: DFS role responsible for printing and distribution of warrants, W-2s and W-2Cs.

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 (U) of the primary line (i.e., expenditure, revenues) with an automated (S) 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.
