Statewide Travel Reports
The 7020 (A-F) In-Out-Non State Travel series of Statewide Travel Reports have been modified to include Ojbect Codes E133 (Employee Training-St-Emp Only) and E226 (Carpool Rental-St Ag).
 
Statewide Cash Reports
All Statewide Daily and Monthly Cash Reports (not including Capital Projects reports) will now exclude all Fund Types equal to 0100, 0200, 1100, or 1200.  Not all Cash reports were previously excluding those Fund Types and Statewide Accounting Services determined that excluding all those Fund Types from the Cash reports will enhance the performance of the report and minimize the data returned.
 
Statewide Expenditure Reports
Monthly Expenditure Reports (all 2200 series reports) were recently modified to include Off Budget Transfers.  It has been determined that only Expenditure reports including Budget data should exclude Off Budget Transfers or Off Budget Funds.  Therefore, the Expenditure Reports now include Off Budget Transfers in Expenditure totals.  Statewide Accounting Services (SAS) re-evaluated the change to this report series and determined to leave Off Budget Expenditures on the report.  However the reports will be sectioned to show all On Budget Expenditures at the beginning of the reports and Off Budget Expenditures at the end of the reports on a separate page in order to separate the various expenditures and make the reports easier to read.

After careful consideration, Statewide Accounting Services has made the decision to eliminate the 1110 and 2550 Year End Cash Reports from the set of Statewide Year End Reports.  Detail information provided on the 2550 Year End report may be obtained from the 2550 Monthly Cash Detail Report for Period 13 in the old year and Period 1 in the new year, as this report is broken down by Budget Fiscal Year.  Users should continue to use the 2110 Year End series of reports to obtain their Cash Carry Forward balances.
