PeopleSoft Solution for Supporting GTAS Requirements

PeopleSoft General Ledger provides a configurable solution to accommodate the valid combinations of TAS and BETC. These combinations are downloaded from the Treasury SAM website. PeopleSoft’s solution includes the following high-level steps for GTAS compliance:

• Configure the GTAS ChartField data: Accounts, Funds, Budget Reference, ChartField Attributes, Trees, GTAS Attribute Assignment table, Attribute Exceptions, ChartField Preferences, and optionally, Validations and Edits.

• Enter transactions with GTAS attributes.

• Run GTAS Accumulation program to extract ledger data, associate it with attributes, and load the data to GTAS Workbench.

• Review data in the GTAS Workbench.

• (Optional) Run the GTAS Validation program, which runs against the GTAS Workbench table to perform specified Treasury or agency GTAS edits and validations. The Validation program runs a list of user-defined queries. The user-defined queries should include the GTAS Staging tables (although, you are able to include any table for the process).

• Run the GTAS Bulk File Creation program to create the GTAS bulk file which can then be submitted to Treasury.
