Business Process Flow for 100.3.6 Distribute Payroll Warrants

Business Roles

The Business Process Flow Diagrams use horizontal swim lanes to depict where activities are performed by different parties or systems. Each swim lane is titled with a role, either agency-based or within DFS, and in some cases, is 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. 

  • Bank: State of Florida's banking services provider.
  • BOSP Payroll Maintainer: BOSP role with the ability to run and monitor payroll cycle processes and update configuration.
  • DFS Print Room Operations: DFS role responsible for printing and distribution of warrants, W-2 and W-2c.

Business Process Flows Details

The tables below describe steps in each business subprocess as reflected on the Business Process Flow Diagrams. The tables also reflect information associated with each step describing the intent of the specific process. Florida PALM screenshots are included within the sections to allow connections to be made from specific business subprocess steps to screens within Florida PALM. This information should be read in conjunction with the Business Process Flow Diagrams.

Process Step Title

Description of Process

1

Create Outbound Payroll Payments for Cash Management

Florida PALM creates and sends the cash accounting transactions to Cash Management for processing for all payroll warrant-related payments.


2

Outbound Payroll Payments File (PRI042)

Outbound interface to send warrants to Cash Management to enable recording of warrant payment accounting entries and processing of bank reconciliation.


The recording of the accounting entries is detailed in 70.4 Process Bank Cash Transfers.


The reconciliation process is detailed in 70.2 Manage and Reconcile Bank Statements.


3

Create Outbound Positive Pay for the Bank

Create Positive Pay File to notify the Bank of warrant issue and stop payments.


4

Outbound Payroll Positive Pay File (PRI045)

Outbound interface containing detailed warrant information to the bank to facilitate warrant clearance.


5

Bank Processing

The bank will process the Outbound Payroll Positive Pay File against cashed warrants.


6

Inbound Reconciled Payroll Warrants, Prenotes, and ACH NOC (PRI044)

Inbound interface that marks payroll payments as reconciled to identify payroll warrants that have cleared the bank. 


7

Payroll Reconciliation Process

The Inbound Payroll reconciliation process performs three functions:

  1. Updates the status of payroll warrants which have cleared the bank to aid in payroll warrant reconciliation and prohibit warrant cancellation.
  2. Prenotes for employees with invalid bank information will have their ACH information inactivated and they will be contacted to update their ACH information.
  3. NOC updates for employee banking information will be automatically updated in Florida PALM.


8

Create Outbound Warrant Print File

This process creates the outbound interfaces to print warrants for the DFS Print Room Operations.


9

Outbound Payroll Warrant Print Extract (PRI043)

Outbound interface containing payroll warrant data for printing warrants via the external printer application system.


10

Print and Distribute Warrants

The DFS Print Room Operations receives the Outbound Payroll Warrant Print Extract, prints the physical warrants, and delivers them to the DFS Transmittal Office for distribution to agencies.

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.
