T/L S2 15-01 8 IRC Handouts April 2, 2015

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

1 USSGL account 435000 only required Begin End Indicator attribute domain value "B" for FY 2014 reporting.

2 USSGL account 438200 only required Prior Year Adjustment Code attribute domain value of "B" for FY 2014 reporting.

3 Effective FY 2015 reporting, the following USSGL accounts must have the Federal Non-Federal Code, Trading Partner Agency Identifier and Trading Partner Main Account Code 

attributes: 4126, 4127, 4128, 4129,4171 and 4172.

4 USSGL accounts 599300 and 599400 do not have a Budgetary Impact Indicator. This was confirmed through research of current guidance, and responses from a majority of the 8 

agencies who used this USSGL account and attribute combination in GATS (December-February Reporting). Therefore, the domain value was changed from "D/E" to "E," and removed 

from line 7.12 of the Reclassified Statement of Changes in Net Position.

5 Revised definition to "The amount recorded by the Department of Labor for unfunded FECA contributions due from employers. Until the paying agency records the actual budgetary 

obligation, the associated FECA liability and receivable are considered unfunded. This account does not close at yearend."

6 Revised definition to "The amount of unfunded FECA accrued revenue recorded by the Department of Labor due from employers."

7 This change is required to correctly crosswalk Department of Labor specific USSGL accounts for non-federal activity (Example - Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve).

8 The General Fund has a need for an account similar to USSGL Account 577600 “Nonbudgetary Financing Sources Transferred Out,” but with a Domain Value of “Blank” for the Federal 

Non-Federal Code attribute. They need this account to properly account for transfers between agencies without causing elimination issues. The General Fund is not a direct trading partner 

in these transactions and only uses the transfer account as a means to track the change.

9 This change is required to correct an error.

10 This change is required to correctly present Derivatives Assets and Liabilities in accordance with TFM 2-4700.

11 To incorporate previously presented A-11 and GTAS ad hoc changes into FACTS II compliant crosswalks for agency reporting. 

12 The Statement of Budgetary Resources has undergone major changes in recent years making this footnote invalid. While line 21 of the Statement of Changes in Net Position reflects the 

total amount of appropriations received before any transfers (line 22) or other adjustments (line 23), there is no line reflecting that sole amount on the Statement of Budgetary Resources.

13 This change is required due to sequestration. USSGL account 438400 will remain open in the 4th quarter end of the fiscal year reporting. Therefore, it has to be added to the FY14 2108: 

Year End Closing Statement.

14 This change is required for agencies who report revenue from services provided that is not attributable to programs (Reference: OMB Circular A-136, Section 11.4.4.8).

15 To incorporate previous changes presented at the IRC to the FY14 FACTS II FMS 2108. This changes were included on the GTAS Yearend 2108 crosswalk for FY14, but were left out 

of the FACTS II FMS 2108.

Summary of Changes

DRAFT

T/L S2 15-01 9 IRC Handouts April 2, 2015

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

16 Changes to add consistency and provide more clarification to the FACTS II FMS 2108 users.

17 USSGL account 463500 "Funds Not Available – Adjustments to the Exchange Stabilization Fund" was created for the Exchange Stabilization Fund and is for Department of Treasury 

Use Only. This account replaces the 463000 for ESF as it does not close where 463000 does close.

18 Correction to include Transaction Codes that were not included in FY 2014 TFM.

19 Change made to properly label the budgetary and proprietary posting logic for the Transaction Code.

20 Updated to include USSGL account 591900 as part of this closing Transaction Code.

21 Revised Comment to include language clarifying use of Transaction Code for sequestered funding.

22 Revised Definition to clarify the use of the USSGL account by only the Department of Transportation and any agency receiving allocation transfers from the Department of 

Transportation.

23 Revised Definition to correct typographical error in the Definition.

24 Revised Definition to clarify the use of the USSGL account while awaiting for reduced funding to be returned to the General Fund.

25 Revised Definition to clarify the use of the USSGL account during and immediately following a continuing resolution.

26 This change is required to align with the GTAS system.

27 Change is needed to improve Intragovernmental Reporting for Deposit Funds.

28 Change based on OMB guidance/approval. 

29 Edit/Validation applicable for FY 2014 only.

30 This GTAS Fund Type Code attribute domain value is need to capture Principle Outstanding, Governmentwide Cash and Gold - Department of Treasury.

31 This change was due to a change to Appendix 1 of the TFM 2-4700.

32 This change was due to a change to Appendix 7 of the TFM 2-4700.

33 This change is due to a request by Treasury to crosswalk the USSGL's to the Reclassified Balance Sheet and Balance Sheet. 

34 USSGL account 729200 "Other Losses from Impairment of Assets" was created to allow Agencies to follow guidance prescribed by FASAB SFFAS
U.S. Government Standard General Ledger

Summary of Changes

DRAFT

T/L S2 15-01 10 IRC Handouts April 2, 2015

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

No. 44 "Accounting for Impairment of General Property, Plant, and Equipment Remaining in Use".

35 Updated to include USSGL account 417200 as part of this closing Transaction Code.

36 Updated Transaction Code definition and reference section to reflect guidance prescribed by FASAB SFFAS No. 44 "Accounting for Impairment of General

Property, Plant, and Equipment Remaining in Use" and to include new USSGL 729200 "Other Losses from Impairment of Assets".

37 Updated Transaction Code to include new USSGL 729200 "Other Losses from Impairment of Assets".

38 Changes to bring GTAS 2108 crosswalk in alignment with FACTS II 2108 crosswalk. 

39 When the combined SF 133 and Budget P&F schedule crosswalk was split in GTAS, this section should not have been incorporated into the SF 133 crosswalk.

40 Change needed to be in compliance with OMB Circular No. A-11 appendix F.

41 Corrected Spelling Error.

42 Changes proposed and approved by the 2108 subcommittee.

43 Per OMB, USDA has a repayable advance to the Agricultural Disaster Relief Fund. An adjustment was recorded in 2013 due to a temporary reduction to sequestration. This resulted in a 

year end closing entry of USSGL account 412400 into 438400. The crosswalk is being modified to accommodate this closing in an expired TAS with Authority Type Code “P” and 

GTAS Fund Type Code “EG” to USSGL account 438400.

44 A Financing Account had a nonexpenditure transfer and is in need of reporting USSGL accounts 417000 and 419000. The “G” Financing Account Code attribute domain value is being 

added for these USSGL accounts in order for the agency to submit them on their bulk file, pass Edit Check 2, and crosswalk to the lines on the SF 133 and P&F. For now this change will 

only be effective for fiscal year 2014.

45 Per OMB, Department of Interior has a special fund TAFS 14X5035 with contract authority and has a need for revisions to the crosswalks to accommodate an account specific reduction 

which is indirectly related to sequestration.

46 Change needed to eliminate invalid USSGL account/attribute domain value combination on the line.

47 There are budgetary accounts that close into USSGL account 438400 which do not require the Reduction Type Code attribute. However, USSGL account 438400 does require the 

Reduction Type Code attribute. The domain value of “XXX” is being added to USSGL account 438400 to accommodate for these types of closings. 

48 Change required because OMB deemed TAS' exception to established validation.

49 Revised domain values for Department of Agriculture. Department of Agriculture is the only department that can report the next fiscal year credit cohort.
