**Partial 224**

Fact Sheet

**What is the Partial 224 (P224)?**

The Partial 224 Statement of Transactions is a system used by Federal
Program Agencies to report their monthly accounting activity to
Treasury, Financial Management Service (FMS).  The Partial 224 monthly
reports transmitted to Treasury serve as a basis of Treasury's
publications to Congress and the public regarding federal revenues and
expenditures. Partial 224 Statement of Transactions consists of three
main sections:  

Section 1 Classification and reclassification by Treasury Account Symbol
(TAS)

Section 2 Payments and IPAC

Section 3 Collections.

## What Does It Do?

> The Partial 224 application will provide Federal Program Agencies
> (FPAs) that utilize FMS Regional Finance Centers for their disbursing
> activity the capability to submit their monthly statement of
> transactions to the Financial Management Service (FMS). The Partial
> 224 application will send its data to CAFÉ (Central Accounting Front
> End) and CAFÉ will then send the data to STAR (Central Accounting
> System).

## Specifically, the Partial 224 Online application is comprised of four sections (tabs): Section 1: Reclassifications, Section 2: Payments, Section 3: Collections, and Balance. 

## The Preparer is able to enter data into Sections 1, 2 and 3 based on their GWA Reporter Participation ID. The Participation ID will dictate which sections/lines of the Partial 224 application are enabled or disabled. These Agency attributes are defined and maintained in the Access Group module. The Balance section is informational only. 

## Other functions performed within the Partial 224 application include: the ability to submit supplemental reports if authorized, system calculated totals and sub-totals, scales that display balance conditions, reduction of on-line entry by copying repetitive data fields, interactive edits, three months of historical data available on-line, and the ability to process transactions on-line interactively. All Partial 224 users also have the option to submit their FMS-224 via bulk transfer. Users can submit their data using a properly formatted text file.

## How is it different from SF224?

> An **Agency Location Code** (ALC) may report one of two ways as either
> a GWA Non-Reporter or a GWA Reporter.  A **GWA Non-Reporter** is
> identified by ALC and source system (e.g. IPAC, SPS, CA\$HLINKII) and
> indicates which organizations are not authorized to provide TAS
> information on incoming daily transmissions to GWA.  If they are a GWA
> Non-Reporter, an ALC reports through GOALS II CITRIX.  A **GWA
> Reporter** is identified by ALC and source system and indicates which
> organizations are authorized to provide TAS information on incoming
> daily transmissions to GWA.  If they are a GWA Reporter, they report
> through the Partial FMS 224.  GWA will collect and maintain
> information to create the appropriate 224 entries.  The collected
> information will be processed through STAR.  The GWA Reporter
> Categories are as follows:

-   Intragovernmental Only,

-   Collections Only,

-   Payments Only,

-   Intragovernmental and Collections,

-   Intragovernmental and Payments,

-   Payments and Collections,

-    Intragovernmental, Collections, and Payments.
