Section 1: General Issuance Information 4
SECTION 1: GENERAL ISSUANCE INFORMATION
1.1. APPLICABILITY. This issuance applies to DCMA Financial and Business Operations
Directorate (FB) and all its employees, contingent workers, and contractors of DCMA.
1.2. POLICY. Accurate and responsive procurement and payment processes are a fundamental
responsibility of all DCMA Commanders/Directors, supervisors, and employees. All DCMA
employees have a fiduciary responsibility as stewards of government resources and must comply
with guidance set forth in this Manual. It is DCMA policy that:
a. Scope. The Defense Agencies Initiative (DAI) Procure to Pay (P2P) module is the
approved Agency tool used for contract procurement, intergovernmental procurement, and
varying smaller purchase avenues as outlined in this issuance.
b. Usage. DAI is the official data entry and repository system for DCMA and provides
centralized procurement data for DCMA personnel.
c. Execution. Employees execute this Manual in a safe, efficient, effective, and ethical
manner.
1.3. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY.
a. Background. DAI is a critical DoD effort to modernize financial management
capabilities. Developed by DoD to comply with DoD transformation goals to modernize the
Defense Agencies’ systems, DAI is also the name of the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
tool which provides the basis for an integrated enterprise level resource for all defense Agencies.
The goal of an ERP is to allow an Agency to manage internal and external resources including
tangible assets, financial resources, materials, and human resources, and to facilitate the flow of
information between all business functions inside the boundaries of the organization, and
manage the connections to outside stakeholders. One of six modules in DAI is the P2P module.
The P2P process encompasses the initial request for goods or services through the payment for
those goods and services. There are several purchasing business scenarios that DAI supports
including:
(1) Contract Procurement involving the procurement of goods and services through the
award of a contract or purchase order (PO).
(2) Intergovernmental procurement involving the purchase of goods and services through
other Agencies. This process is usually accomplished through the Military Interdepartmental
Purchase Requests (MIPR), Reimbursable Work Authorizations (RWAs), Security Work
Authorizations (SWAs) and Project Orders.
(3) Miscellaneous reimbursements for items such as fitness memberships, transportation
fringe benefits, personal protective equipment (PPE), and tuition reimbursements.
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 1: General Issuance Information 5
(4) Purchase cards are used by DoD Agencies to support departmental and small dollar
purchases.
(5) Financial accounting events associated with travel including temporary duty (TDY)
and permanent change of station (PCS).
b. The DAI System for Award Management Interface. DAI interfaces with the System
for Award Management (SAM) and supports registered vendors. The Defense Finance and
Accounting Service (DFAS) is responsible for Accounts Payable Maintenance activities. The
P2P entitlement processing involves the entire payment management process from identifying a
need for goods and/or services to the final accounting of the transaction.
c. The DAI Effort. DAI is a critical DoD effort to modernize financial management
capabilities. DAI is an ERP tool that compiles the budget, finance, and accounting operations of
DoD Agencies to:
(1) Achieve accurate and reliable financial information.
(2) Deploy a standardized system to improve overall financial management and comply
with the Department’s Business Enterprise Architecture (BEA) including Standard Financial
Information Structure and Office of Federal Financial Management requirements.
(3) Attain Chief Financial Officer (CFO) compliant business environments with
accurate, timely, authoritative financial data.
(4) Facilitation of vendor payment.
1.4. SYSTEM ASSUMPTIONS/CONSTRAINTS. The DCMA DAI P2P is based on
assumptions and constraints which are:
a. DCMA utilizes a contract writing system for contracts written by the DCMA Procurement
Center using Purchase Request Data Standard (PRDS) and the Procurement Data Standard (PDS)
interfaces.
b. DCMA performs miscellaneous pay transactions to include civilian employee fitness
reimbursement, personal protective equipment, and legal settlements.

DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 8
SECTION 3: PROCESS FOR P2P
3.1. SUPPLIER INFORMATION. Vendors are identified within DAI as suppliers for billing
purposes. DAI has the capability of maintaining data for multiple supplier types to include
federal, commercial, and employee/payee data. This supplier data is brought into DAI through
the SAM interface, Certified Electronic Funds Transfer interface and by Manual entry. The
request to add new suppliers is submitted to the DAI Support Team (DST). A process overview
of adding a Supplier can be found on the Resource Page.
3.2. PURCHASE REQUISITION CREATION.
a. Overview. Excluding GPC micro purchases and training payments, DCMA utilizes the
Purchase Request (PR) to begin the process of acquiring supplies and services from commercial
vendors. The PR process is completed via proper approvals where the final approval is made by
a DCMA FCO. The DCMA FCO shall have a valid DD Form 577, which denotes the
appointment as a Departmental Accountable Official. The DD Form 577 shall contain language
in the responsibilities that cite “Functions as the Primary (or Alternate) Resource Manager or
Fund Holder and responsible for the assignment of proper funding citations on obligating
documents before obligations are incurred and maintain a system of funds control. This is a
certification of fund availability and not a certification for payment.” The FCO will establish a
commitment on the General Ledger (GL). The FCO must ensure that legal documents received
in DAI are posted within 10 business days. A process overview of the PR process can be found
on the Resource Page.
b. Administrative. Administrative and/or monetary changes are accomplished through
modification utilizing the initial PR. There are two major types of PRs, Planning and Funded,
which can be generated within DAI.
(1) A Planning PR is referred to as a Subject to Availability of Funds (SAF) PR. DAI
will consider a PR as an SAF whenever the funded value is equal to $0.00. An SAF PR must be
amended whenever funding becomes available and de-committed when funds remain unused.
(2) A Funded PR has a value more than $0.00.
c. Process.
(1) The PR is processed via DAI iProcurement. The initiator creates the PR and related
details for submission. Related details include address, delivery, billing, and review of approval
information. The address details include the Requesting, Issuing, Suggested Contracting
Officer’s Technical Representative, and Suggested Property Administration Offices. The
Requesting Office DoD Activity Address Code (DoDAAC) is the code of the requiring activity
(i.e., S5121A for DCMA Procurement Center). The Issuing Office DoDAAC of S5121A is
entered into DAI, which allows the PRDS to initiate the automated process of transmission of
PRs, subsequent amendments, and its attachments to the P2P’s contract writing system of record.
Using DoDAAC S5121A as the Requesting and Issuing Office automatically sends the PR to the
Procurement Center for processing. When using DoDAAC S5102A (i.e. the DoDAAC for Head
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 9
quarters (HQ) DCMA), the approved PR must be emailed to the Procurement Center for action.
The delivery details are composed of the Period of Performance (POP), Need-by Date, and
Requester. Billing details provide the DCMA Project Organization Expenditure Type (POET)
structure for the line of accounting (LOA). Approval details identify the individuals the
document will flow through for approval. The initiator is required to record details for each of
these related data elements and submit for approval.
(2) Upon receipt of submission, DAI initiates a funds check validation which confirms
sufficient funds are available when the initiator submits the PR for approval. If funds are
available, DAI routes the PR to the next Approving Official (AO) referred to as a Project
Manager. After the Project Manager reviews and approves the document it will automatically
route to the FCO. If the document does not pass the funds check, the initiator must consult with
the FCO to reconcile the funds issue. PRs that are unfunded or do not have available funds may
be saved in an incomplete status until funds are available.
(3) The FCO reviews the PR to verify if the purpose, POET, and amount on the
document are all correct. As part of the approval process, the FCO is required to verify the
distinct goods or services requested, the estimated price or cost, the need-by date or POP, the
accounting line, and any supporting documentation. If funds are available and the amount is
correct, the FCO approves and digitally signs the PR.
(4) DAI requires a minimum of two approvals - an organizational approval and a final
approval from the FCO. The initiator can manage approvers and reviewers prior to submitting
the PR. The initiator and the FCO cannot be the same person. The user assigned with the
DCMA Requisition Approval role and the FCO are determined by each component. The
approval routing of the document is determined by the Project and Task identified on the PR.
Key members for each organization/project who will approve the PRs are identified and
established in DAI by FBB. FBB is responsible for making changes to DAI Key Members.
(5) After a PR is approved and the funds check has passed successfully, a commitment
accounting transaction is posted in the GL and DAI Projects.
(6) The approved PR is ready for distribution to the Procurement Center for processing:
(a) If the Issuing Office is identified as DoDAAC S5121A, distribution to the
Procurement Center is automatic via the PRDS.
(b) If the Issuing Office is other than DoDAAC S5102A, then the PR must be
emailed to the Procurement Center.
(c) Once the contract is awarded:
1. The initiator will receive notification from the Electronic Document Access
system and the Procurement Center.
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 10
2. All Unit Identification Code (UIC) FCOs are responsible for ensuring the
contract award is entered into DAI within 10 Business days.
a. An obligation posts in the GL upon award approval in DAI.
b. The UIC FCOs receive a DAI approval notification when the award has
been approved by the applicable funds holder.
3.3. INTERGOVERNMENTAL PROCUREMENT.
a. Overview. Once a PR commitment is accepted, the DCMA Procurement Center takes
action to place it on contract. The contract award/modification establishes an obligation on the
GL.
b. Process.
(1) Through the PRDS interface, the Procurement Center receives PR documents. The
Procurement Center will use the approved PR as a source document for creation of the awarded
contract within the Contract Writing System (CWS).
(2) The contract award details will flow into DAI using the PDS interface to record the
contract award, which is an obligation. Contracts sent via DCMA’s CWS or contract obligations
from Direct Cite MIPRs are recorded inside DAI with an obligation type of “Contract (Other).”
c. Contract Award Creation.
(1) The PDS interface will create the obligation according to the contract information
indicated in the PDS file including Informational Contract Line Item Number
(CLIN)/Subcontract Line Item Number (SLIN) for funding. This is a significant change from
the previous method of entry. The funded amount and total amount can be different depending
on whether the contract is fully funded.
(2) A Contract Identification Number (CIN) on the contract must match the DAI PR
number and each PR line is required for creation of DAI obligation. If the identified DAI PR
only has one line then it will be used for linking to the original requisition. The Project, Task
and Object Class in the PDS Extensible Markup Language (XML) LOA must match the Project,
Task and Expenditure Type (first three) of the associated DAI PR line. Option Lines and Not
Separately Priced lines will not be created in DAI as they have no financial impact.
(3) Once Option Lines have been exercised via contract modification, they will be
created in DAI when the modification is imported via the PDS into DAI. Blanket Purchase
Agreements (BPA) and Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantities (IDIQs) will not be created, as
funding is not associated with those documents. BPA Calls and Delivery Orders will be created;
clauses will be removed.
d. PDS Inbound Files to DAI.
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 11
(1) The government data exchange interface will only accept awards and modifications
that have passed the data exchange validation map.
(2) The DCMA CWS issuing office must produce the PDS version 2.5 Extensible
Markup Language files.
(3) The PDS resource only impacts contract awards and modifications.
(4) The approved DAI PR must be present in the PDS within the CIN field (and match
DAI requisition and line number) for the award to be created/approved.
(5) If DAI PR lines and contract line structure do not match (i.e., one line on the PR to
many CLINs on the contract award), the CIN number will need to be repeated by the
Procurement Center in CWS to associate the CLINs to the single PR line. A process overview of
DAI PDS process can be found on the Resource Page.
e. The PDS Interface Exceptions.
(1) PDS interface exceptions are monitored by DST utilizing the PDS Summary Report
(a core report that resides in DAI). Corrective actions to resolve these exceptions may require
Defense Travel System (DTS), FCO, or Procurement Center action. The FCO of the award must
ensure the contract award obligation records and executes properly within three business days.
(2) In the event of data corruption via interface transmission, contract awards can be
manually created using required data obtained from the Procurement Center. The FCO will
manually enter data into DAI in-lieu of the PDS interface for contracts and Direct-Cite MIPRs.
(a) Before manually creating a contract award, the FCO must verify the document
has not already been recorded.
(b) The PDS interface exceptions are manually recorded in DAI by the responsible
FCO for applicable contract modifications. Examples include the following categories:
Addition of a new contract line item
Incremental funding on an existing line item
De-obligation of funds
Administrative modification
Correction modifications – required for erroneously recorded awards/
modifications
3.4. INTERAGENCY PROCUREMENT.
a. Overview. DCMA utilizes MIPRs, RWAs, SWAs and Project Orders to acquire goods
and services from DoD and non-DoD Federal Government Agencies. The MIPR process is
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 12
completed via proper approvals where the final approval is made by the FCO. The FCO’s
signature will establish a commitment on the GL.
b. MIPR Utilization. DCMA utilizes the automated DD Form 448, “Military
Interdepartmental Purchase Request,” to acquire goods or services from servicing entities. The
servicing entity in return provides an Acceptance of MIPR (DD Form 448-2) identifying the
acceptance as direct or reimbursable. A process overview of the Outgoing MIPR process can be
found on the Resource Page.
c. Administrative. Administrative and/or monetary changes can be accomplished through
modification of the initial MIPR.
d. MIPR Process.
(1) The initiator will manage/monitor the MIPR from commitment until it is closed and
finalized. The initiator will attach any supporting documentation to the MIPR. The MIPR must
include:
(a) Acquisition Authority: A Determination and Findings (D&F) report is required,
stating that use of an interagency acquisition represents the best procurement approach. This
document should be signed by the requiring FCO and General Counsel before the MIPR is
submitted.
(b) An Interagency Support Agreement signed by the servicing Agency and the
requesting Agency is required for MIPR-assisted acquisitions greater than $3,000. In accordance
with DoD Instruction (DoDI) 4000.19, "Support Agreements," DD Form 1144 "Support
Agreement" is required to ensure reimbursement of funds unless the party providing the support
has completed a memorandum of agreement (MOA) verifying the acceptance of a voluntary
exchange reimbursement.
(c) If the acquisition is for building space or real property, a lease agreement must be
provided. The DD Form 1144, MOA/Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), or lease
agreement must be attached with the MIPR.
(d) The MIPR (DD Form 448-2) must denote whether funding is direct cite authority
or reimbursement authority. The direct cite authority is the amount of funds from the annual
operating budget that is immediately available to the servicing Agencies for commitment and
obligation. Reimbursable MIPRs provide authority for another Agency to incur costs and
present invoices for reimbursement. Reimbursement authority is available upon acceptance of
orders.
(e) The initiator will need the Receiving Office DoDAAC before the MIPR can be
submitted. The Receiving Office is the Agency name that appears in the To: (block 7) of the
DD Form 448. If the DoDAAC cannot be found in DAI, a DAI Change Gear ticket must be
submitted requesting a DoDAAC to be added.
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 13
(2) Upon submission of the MIPR, the document is routed to the Project Manager for
approval.
(3) The DCMA Procurement Center Point of Contact (POC) receives a notification
request via email for MIPR approval for action and executes:
(a) The Procurement Center POC ensures all required interagency acquisition
supporting documentation is attached and completed prior to its approval.
(b) If the Procurement Center POC determines that a D&F is required, they will
review and sign the D&F stating the interagency acquisition authority.
(c) If the MIPR is for contracted services, the Procurement Center POC will ensure
DCMA Acquisition Review Board approval has been obtained and attached to the MIPR.
(d) Upon approval of the Procurement Center, DAI routes the MIPR to the FCO for
review. The FCO will verify available funds, the correct MIPR project/task structure, the correct
accounting data, and the correct amount of the MIPR.
(4) Upon FCO approval, the initiator receives notification. The initiator then proceeds to
download and email the DD Form 448 to the accepting/servicing Agency.
(5) The initiator and FCO cannot be the same individual. In support of this approval
format, DAI workflow defines the MIPRs approval levels automatically.
(6) If the MIPR is a Reimbursable MIPR the accepting/servicing Agencies are requested
to accept and provide a signed copy of its Trading Partner/Treasury Account Symbol
(TAS)/Business Event Type Code (BETC) and LOA information on the DD Form 448-2 within
15 business days of receipt of a completed DD Form 448. If the process takes longer than 15
business days, the FCO will notify the initiator of the expected completion date.
(7) It is the responsibility of the initiator to cancel MIPRs that have not been accepted
exceeding 30 business days. Proper notification and documentation of conclusion or acceptance
will be given to the FCO.
(8) If the MIPR was accepted as a direct cite, a copy of the contract will also be
forwarded to the MIPR initiator.
(9) The initiator FCO will review the DD Form 448-2 for accuracy and perform MIPR
Acknowledgement in DAI, attaching the DD Form 448-2 and the contract if applicable. If the
MIPR is a Reimbursable MIPR, the initiator FCO should ensure the DD Form 448-2 lists the
receiving Agency's Trading Partner and LOA information, or request the information from the
receiving Agency before inputting into DAI.
(10) Upon recording a MIPR Obligation, the FCO will record the obligation by creating
an Award in DAI.
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 14
3.5. MISCELLANEOUS OBLIGATIONS.
a. Overview. DCMA utilizes a Miscellaneous Obligation Reimbursement Document
(MORD) to obligate funds for approved miscellaneous transactions. The FBLAO will establish
an obligation on the GL with final approval of the MORD.
b. Process. A Miscellaneous Obligation is a valid obligation of the government having one
or more attributes such as:
(1) Payment for arrangements other than a formal contracting arrangement. These
arrangements may include special acts through legislative and Executive Orders.
(2) Payments authorized under formal contracting arrangements that necessitate
subsequent funding arrangements.
(3) Payments and funding made by other federal Agencies under special authority that
necessitates special billing/reimbursement conditions.
(4) Payments for non-recurring, non-contractual purchases.
c. MORD. Miscellaneous obligations not supported by a commitment are handled by
MORD in DAI. These transactions include but are not limited to PCS Travel, Foreign National
Agreements, TDY, and training.
(1) The FCO enters the MORD in DAI and attaches supporting documentation. Upon
submission of the award, it is routed to the identified award approver.
(2) The FBLAO or UIC FCO Approver reviews/approves the MORD. When FBLAO
approves the award in DAI, the funds check process is executed to confirm there is sufficient
funding for the award.
d. Miscellaneous Pay Process. Miscellaneous payments for items such as fitness
memberships, transportation fringe benefits, PPE, and tuition reimbursements are also handled
through DAI’s MORD process.
(1) The FCO is responsible for creation of the obligation document for the miscellaneous
payment. The FCO ensures funding is available to support the obligation and creates the award
for reimbursement. Upon submission of the award, the document is automatically routed to
FBLAO via DAI workflow.
(2) Miscellaneous Pay processes are recorded and processed in accordance with DoD
Financial Management Regulations.
(3) A workflow notification for approval of the award is received and is sent to each UIC
POC for reassignment to appropriate FCO (the approving FCO should be different from the FCO
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 15
who created the MORD). The FCO approves and invoices the award, as indicated on the
Resource Page. Upon invoice submission, payment processing normally occurs within two
business days.
3.6. GOVERNMENT PURCHASE CARD PROCESS.
a. Overview. GPC is used for Micro Purchases (Supplies/equipment <= $10,000; Services
<= $2,500; Construction <= $2,000). The contract payment process within DAI is partially
supported by the automatic interface with “Access Online,” (AXOL) which is also referred to as
Electronic Access System (EAS). An overview of the GPC process can be found on the
Resource Page.
b. GPC Card for Micro Purchases.
(1) Overview. When GPCs are used for purchases, the obligations and invoices are
automatically interfaced into DAI. Unless an error occurs, no Manual intervention is required to
capture the accounting events in DAI for a card used for micro Purchases.
(2) Process.
(a) A requestor determines a requirement, obtains pricing, and sends the request to
the GPC Cardholder. The Cardholder determines whether the requirement can be fulfilled with
the GPC and completes a GPC Pre-approval form. The Cardholder sends the GPC pre-approval
form to the Billing Official (BO) for approval.
(b) If approved by the BO, the cardholder orders the supplies using a purchase card
issued by the Credit Card Vendor (CCV) and creates an order record in AXOL.
(c) The supplier receives an ‘order’ from the GPC cardholder and the authority to
charge the GPC for the order.
(d) Supplier’s bank sends the invoice to the CCV.
(e) The CCV pays the supplier's bank and posts transactions in AXOL.
(f) As the transactions are posted in Access Online AXOL with a status of pending,
transactions are matched to the “Order Record.” The transaction status is changed to Approved,
and LOA is assigned. When the cycle closes, the cardholder approves the statement.
(g) The statement is routed to the BO for final approval and certification. When all
statements are certified, the individual LOA are consolidated and the bank generates a file
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) 821, which is sent to DAI through the data exchange.
(h) FBB monitors Access Online interface exceptions for review and resolution. The
Program Management Office completes a recurring review of Access Online interface errors that
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 16
are communicated to DST. DST advises FBB of the errors that require resolution. FBB reviews
the transaction for accuracy and updates data fields as required for successful processing.
(i) The file EDI 821 is imported into DAI as an approved PO/obligation (MORD).
(j) A separate PO is created for each LOA.
(k) Two days after receiving the EDI 821 file, DAI receives the invoice / EDI 810
file.
(l) In accordance with the Prompt Payment Act, Section 3903 of Title 10, United
States Code (U.S.C.), and Prompt Payment Regulations at Part 1315 of Title 5, Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR), DFAS entitles and disburses the funds to the CCV.
(m) CCV has the ability to send rebates or credits. However, DFAS and/or DAI
cannot process either as a stand-alone credit. It must be netted against a charge or the same
LOA.
c. GPC as a Contract Payment Method. The GPC may be used for contracts with
indefinite quantities or applicable contracts that are obligated to the total amount. When the
GPC is the method of payment on indefinite quantities, calls are made against charges accrued
on contract. Contracts of indefinite quantities may include products such as packing or shipping
and the charges are not incurred until utilization of the service. When the GPC is the method of
payment against an obligation, the charges are obligated for the full amount and partially de-
obligated based on actual use.
(1) Process Overview. The initiator creates a PR within DAI and identifies the Issuing
Office as S5121A TAC1 and a valid Product Service Code for it to automatically go to the
Procurement Center upon final approval via the Purchase PDS Interface. Upon final approval of
by the FCO, the PR is automatically routed to the “DCMA’s contract writing system of record”
which is accessed by the Procurement Center. Once the contract has been awarded, the contract
obligation is recorded within DAI utilizing the PDS interface. The cardholder is responsible for
performing the statement reconciliation at the end of the monthly billing cycle.
(2) Process.
(a) PR Entry and Approval.
1. For any request to be formally awarded by the Procurement Office, the PR
initiator will utilize the work instructions for entry and approval of the PR funding type action.
2. The FCO provides final approval of the PR document. Upon approval, the PR
is routed to the Procurement Center via “DCMA’s contract writing system of record.”
(b) PO Creation and Approval recognizes that upon award creation, the FCO will
verify that these data elements are identified on the contract award:
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 17
1. PO’s Supplier has a GPC payment site.
2. PO’s contract Bill-to Site is DoDAAC credit card DCMA.
3. Obligation Type is Contract (Other).
4. Contract terms will specify GPC-appropriate information for invoicing and
payment.
3.7. DEFENSE TRAVEL SYSTEM.
a. Overview. DTS processes travel authorizations and Travel Vouchers or Sub-vouchers
(DD Form 1351-2) for DoD travelers. The DTS interface records the accounting transactions
into DAI for financial processing. DTS, DAI, and the disbursing system will pass transactions to
one another through the data exchange system in a predetermined format. A figure outlining
DAI DTS PO creation process can be found of the Resource Page. Transactions processed by
the DTS interface include:
Initial Obligations
Adjusting Obligations
Supplemental Obligations
Cancellations
Invoices
Accounts Receivables (AR)/Debt Management
Centrally Billed Accounts
b. DTS Interface Assumptions.
(1) DAI is not responsible for any travel-related tax reporting and withholding.
(2) Files are either completely accepted or rejected by DAI. There is no partial
acceptance (e.g., Individually Billed Account (IBA) portion cannot be accepted if the Centrally
Billed Account (CBA) portion is rejected and or vice versa).
(3) All necessary configuration setups including creation of a Buyer, Buyer approval
hierarchy, and Employee and Bank supplier will be completed in DAI.
(4) DTS interface will not create any commitment accounting in DAI.
(5) DTS captures the data of the debt collection process.
(6) DTS will only send invoices to DAI when it has received a positive
acknowledgement that an obligation has successfully been created or updated in DAI.
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 18
(7) DTS adjustments will not interface into DAI without an initial obligation in DAI;
likewise, cancellations will not interface without an initial obligation.
(8) Each DTS file will include a single record. Records defined as Travel Authorization
Number (TANUM) transactions may include both CBA and individual traveler transactions, and
may have multiple line items with multiple LOAs.
(9) DAI Purchase Orders Awards will use a line type of “DTS Travel.”
(10) Defense Cash Accountability System (DCAS) will process all DD Form 1351-2,
advance payments, and AR debt.
(11) In the event of the total expenditure exceeding the total obligation, the processing of
payment would be rejected or the funds holder must modify the award to increase the obligation.
c. Process.
(1) The DTS process begins with the traveler creating a request for travel. When this
request is authorized in DTS by the Authorizing Official, it triggers the transaction to interface
into DAI. DAI systematically performs a data query to ensure there is an obligated amount
entered in DAI.
(2) Based on the funding authorization in DAI, it will either return a positive
acknowledgement (POSACK) or a negative acknowledgement (NEGACK) to the traveler.
(a) The receipt of a POSACK denotes the DTS travel authorization has successfully
interfaced with DAI.
(b) The receipt of a NEGACK denotes an error in the DTS authorization. The
traveler must update the authorization with valid data within DTS. Upon completion of error
correction, the authorization will be retransmitted to DAI for data review and determination of
POSACK status.
(3) DTS uses either IBA or CBA transactions to obligate funds.
(a) IBA. Travel charges that are incurred by government and military personnel and
are reimbursed to the employee or paid to a government-sponsored individually issued credit
card on behalf of the employee.
(b) CBA. Travel charges that are charged to and paid directly to a government
sponsored, centrally billed credit card.
(4) DTS obligations fall into four categories: Initial, Cancelled, Adjusting, or
Supplemental.
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 19
(a) Initial. An Initial obligation is received from DTS after approval is granted by
the AO. Funds are checked and obligated in DAI. If funds are not available, a rejection notice is
sent back to DTS and the traveler.
(b) Cancelled. A Cancelled obligation is received from DTS after AO approves the
cancellation of an entire trip. Funds are de-obligated on DAI side and a notice to this effect is
sent to DTS.
(c) Adjusting. An Adjusting obligation is received from DTS after an AO approves
an amended authorization or a travel settlement claim. Adjustments occur when an amount or
LOA related to an existing obligation is modified. Funds are checked and obligated /de-
obligated according to the type of adjustment made on the DAI side.
(d) Supplemental. A Supplemental obligation is received from DTS after an AOs
approval of a supplemental travel claim. Funds are checked and obligated/de-obligated
according to the type of adjustment made in DAI and the traveler. A supplemental obligation
will only come to DAI after the initial obligation is fully paid.
(5) Voucher Processing. After travel is completed, a voucher is submitted in DTS by the
traveler.
(6) The Voucher is routed to the Supervisor for approval. The Supervisor verifies all
items over minimum dollar threshold have a receipt and are authorized for payment. Mandatory
receipts for travel and lodging must be attached.
(7) IBA Invoice Creation and PO Matching includes:
(a) Once the DD Form 1351-2 is approved, DTS will generate an invoice file and
forward it to the data exchange. The data exchange forwards it to DFAS who performs functions
to support consolidated disbursements. IBA transactions are passed to the disbursing system for
payment. Once the disbursement is made, the disbursing system will generate an Advice of
Payment transaction to DCAS. DCAS then passes the transaction to DAI.
(b) IBA invoices will be created through DAI interface and matched to a PO. The
TANUM is used to identify the matching PO by looking for a PO number for that travel order.
In the case of line matching, the line number will be matched based on the Line Item Identifier
(LII).
(8) The CBA Invoice Creation and PO Matching process involves DTS support of travel
expenses charged to a CBA. DCMA has multiple CBAs. Payment processing for CBAs
requires Manual input to align each transaction to each correct CBA account. The payment
process is:
(a) The CBA cardholder retains Manual record of transactions made during the
month and aligns each transaction to a DAI obligating document (Award).
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 20
(b) In DAI, CBA cardholders manually create monthly invoices in DAI for each
CCV statement.
(c) The CCV statement is reconciled and matched to DAI obligating document
(Award) and submitted within DAI to DFAS for payment and processing.
(9) The CCV electronically sends an invoice to DTS. DTS performs a review of the
invoice to ensure that it is a proper invoice and meets the Prompt Payment Act requirements.
(a) If the invoice does not pass either of these reviews, it is rejected and sent back to
the CCV within seven business days, with the reason for rejection annotated.
(b) If the invoice passes these reviews, DTS performs an initial automatic
reconciliation of the CCV invoice, annotating system classifications on the CBA invoice
transactions based on the status of travel records in DTS. The invoice is sent to the
Transportation Officer for review, acknowledgement, and certification. The certified CBA
invoice is then sent electronically to the data exchange for translation and transmission to DAI.
(c) In DAI, the CBA invoice will be created using the CCV. The invoice will be
created with multiple distribution lines, each representing a separate travel authorization. The
TANUM on the CBA invoice line will be used to identify the matching PO by looking for a PO
number for that travel authorization. In the case of line matching, the line number will be
matched based on the LII contained in the CLIN/SLIN Descriptive Flexfield
(PO_LINE_LOCATIONS Attribute 13) at the PO line level which will represent the travel order
line number.
d. Employee Debt AR Invoice and Adjustments.
(1) Unspent dollar amounts associated with travel advance vouchers (prepaid AP
invoice) are processed in the Receivables module as travel related transactions. DAI will accept
and process various AR transaction types that are transmitted by DTS through a custom interface
process. All transactions will go through a pre-validation process and be identified as an error
transaction or proceed for further processing in DAI receivables module.
(2) The DTS Employee Debt (ED) AR Invoice and Adjustments automated interface
resource will create an AR invoice, or apply credit/adjustments to an existing invoice and create
the associated GL journals based on the transaction type received from DTS through the data
exchange. Transactions are expected to be received in order to record employee reimbursement
amounts paid back to an Agency such as:
(a) Initial. An Initial DTS receivables transaction is sent to DAI upon trip approval
by the DTS AO. If the transaction passes validation, a new transaction will be manually created
in Receivables using the information provided on the DTS transmittal.
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 21
(b) Adjustment. An Adjustment is sent from DTS when an AO approves
supplemental transaction information regarding an existing transaction. If everything passes
validation, DAI will apply the new amount to the transaction.
(c) Waiver. A Waiver is the relief of an employee’s debt that may, if collected, cause
hardship. A small waiver for a transaction is determined and issued by the DFAS Indianapolis
Director, routed through the FBLA Supervisory Staff Accountant, and entered into DAI as
assigned. Once it passes validation, the waiver will be applied to the transaction, adjusting the
amount down. If the resulting amount is negative, a cash payment will be dispensed to the
traveler.
(d) Cancellation. A Cancellation for a transaction is sent to DAI when the AO
approves a trip that is eventually cancelled. Once it passes validations, DAI will cancel the
transaction. This will be done by creating a credit memo with the current amount of the invoice
and applying it to the invoice.
(e) Write-Off. A Write Off is the removal of a public delinquent debt from financial
records and statements that has not been collected within two years of delinquency. A Write-Off
for a transaction is received after an AO has approved the transaction for write-off and the AO’s
request has been approved by the FBLA Supervisory Staff Accountant. If the write-off request
passes validation, DAI will process the write-off. The write-off amount should be charged to the
selected account.
(f) Authorization for Multiple LOA. An Authorization for Multiple LOAs occurs
when DTS sends a transaction that involves more than one LOA.
e. ED AR Invoice and Adjustments Process.
(1) DTS will process unspent travel dollar amounts. DTS will send the initial and
adjustment receivable transactions to DAI via the data exchange.
(2) The data exchange will translate and send the DTS file to DAI.
(3) Upon receipt of the file from the data exchange, Business Process Execution
Language (BPEL) will automatically load the DTS ED receivable transaction information into
DAI custom staging table.
(4) BPEL will verify record count and any errors will be reported back to DTS via the
data exchange.
(5) A successful BPEL load will initiate submission of the DTS ED AR Invoice and
Adjustments Interface process.
(6) The process will retrieve all of the incoming transactions from DTS and pre-validate
the data and further process the transactions in the DAI receivables module based on validations.
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 22
(7) Transactions that are successfully pre-validated will proceed for further processing to
create a new invoice or apply a credit or adjustment to the existing invoice in DAI receivable
module.
(8) Transactions that fail pre-validation or could not be processed will generate a
NEGACK in DTS.
(9) All errors and transaction processing outcomes in DAI will be recorded in the
concurrent log and output file as part of the interface run. POSACK and NEGACK status of
transactions are on the P2P XXDAI DTS Interface Status Rep report. Users can review the
concurrent log and output file of XXDAI DTS Interface Status Rep to review successfully
processed and/or error transactions.
(10) Based on the outcome of interface processing, a success or failure notice will be
generated such as:
(a) If a transaction is created successfully in Receivables, a success notice will be
generated to initiate POSACK and the data exchange will translate DAI file and generate an
824P for DTS to update the trip record and debt management module.
(b) If a transaction could not be processed successfully in Receivables, a failure
notice will be generated to initiate negative acknowledgement and the data exchange will
translate DAI file and generate an 824R for DTS to update the trip record and debt management
module.
3.8. INVOICES AND ACCOUNTS PAYABLE ACTIONS.
a. Overview. DCMA manages AP transactions and processes invoices with the DAI P2P
module, including reporting, reconciliation, and manual invoicing. Invoices are submitted using
a variety of systems, to include, Procurement Integrated Enterprise Environment (PIIE) and
Wide Area Workflow (WAWF), and AXOL.
b. Invoices.
(1) DAI invoice documents are received through the WAWF application which
automatically flows to DFAS.
(2) The P2P process supports validating the receiving document. This process involves
the assurance that goods/services have been received and proper inspection has been performed
when required. Approved and matched invoices are consolidated into a single Ready for
Payment file that is sent to DFAS the Automated Disbursing System (ADS) for processing.
(3) Invoice Matching.
(a) Invoice processing involves ensuring the goods/services have been received so
the invoice can be processed for payment.
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 23
(b) DAI performs either a two-way, three-way, or four-way match depending on the
type of procurement and the contractual requirements.
1. Two-way match means the invoice and PO information match and is used for
FAST PAY and Miscellaneous payments.
2. Three-way match means the Invoice, Purchase Order, and Receiving Report all
match and is used with the purchase of goods and services.
3. Four-way match means the Invoice, Purchase Order, Receiving Report from
DAI, and Inspection/Acceptance Report from Mechanization of Contract Administration
Services (MOCAS) all match. This method is usually used with contracts involving equipment
or complex contracts.
(4) Foreign Currency Invoices.
(a) Once a foreign currency invoice is authorized in WAWF, the file containing the
invoice details and contract number interfaces into DAI. The invoice is processed into DAI
invoice staging table where initial data validations take place. Invoices that fail validation
remain on the staging table until corrections are made or manually entered into DAI.
(b) The WAWF Interface Status report will display the foreign currency invoices
interfacing from WAWF into DAI for a particular date, contract, and/or supplier.
(c) Prior to entering the invoice into DAI, the Award Budget Rate must be identified.
DAI identifies the Budget Rate as the Corporate Rate. This rate is assigned based on the Fiscal
Year (FY) the award was created.
(5) WAWF Acceptance/Approval.
(a) DAI is the financial record system that captures receipt and invoice transactions
received from WAWF. DAI WAWF interface is used when DAI is the entitlement system.
Vendors access WAWF and input invoices into the WAWF module; Agency users perform
receipt and acceptance functions in WAWF. Once the invoice/receipt transaction is approved or
accepted in WAWF, WAWF submits the information to the data exchange that further extracts
invoice information for interface into DAI. This is designated by the pay office DoDAAC on the
contract. The interface between DAI and WAWF systems forms an integrated receipt to
invoicing process. The WAWF Interface Data Flow is outlined on the Resource Page of this
Manual.
(b) WAWF uses a data exchange for translations and transactions between DAI and
WAWF. The data exchange also combines gateway and network entry point functions at a
single location and for an enhanced transaction audit trail and end-to-end reliability and
audibility.
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 24
c. Inbound WAWF Interface - Receipts.
(1) DAI receives accepted receipt transactions from WAWF as XML file. This file is
created in WAWF and sent to the data exchange which translates the file and sends it to DAI
staging table. An interface program runs validation on the records in the staging table and the
validated records are sent to the Oracle standard open interface tables. When a standard import
program performs additional Oracle logic on the transactions and successful transactions are
loaded into the Oracle receiving tables. The Accepted Receipts Interface Process is located on
the Resource Page.
(2) DAI receives shipment and acceptance information (receipts) from WAWF in the
Standard Accept Approve Data format. DAI uses the information in the XML file to compare
the receipt information in the file to the associated award and contract information that is already
stored in DAI.
(3) If the records inserted into staging tables fail the validation logic, an error report
listing the error condition is generated and sent to the WAWF AO for troubleshooting. These
situations include:
(a) Contract Number is not found in DAI.
(b) Contract CLIN/SLIN is not found in DAI.
(c) The WAWF Accepted Receipt (861) Unit of Measure does not equal DAI
Purchase Order Line Unit of Measure.
(d) The WAWF Accepted Receipt (861) Unit Price does not equal DAI Purchase
Order Line Unit Price.
(e) The purchase order shipment line is closed.
(f) The purchase order shipment line is canceled.
(g) The WAWF 861 quantity shipped plus the quantity already received on the
purchase order shipment line is greater than the quantity ordered on the purchase order shipment
line.
(h) A duplicate WAWF 861 number is submitted by a vendor.
(i) The receipt requires Manual processing.
d. Inbound WAWF Interface - Invoices.
(1) When an invoice is authorized in WAWF, the file with the invoice details and
contract number is interfaced to DAI via the data exchange. DAI scheduled BPEL processes the
interfaced invoices file from WAWF 810 into the invoice staging table. Initial data validations
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 25
take place and the validated invoices are interfaced to Oracle standard AP open interface tables.
The standard payables import program performs an additional Oracle logic on the transactions
and successful transactions are loaded into the AP invoice tables. The Accepted Invoice
Interface Process is located on the Resource Page.
(2) Invoice interface logic validates the award number, line, and distributions details to
see if they are valid and derive all the required values based on the business rules defined for the
interface. The CLIN/SLIN related to the award line and award distribution is stored in the
inbound file. The necessary LOA information is based on the Code Combination Identification
(ID) from the award. If the award cannot be matched to the invoice record errors are displayed
in the error report with the appropriate messages. In addition, if the records inserted into staging
tables fail the validation logic, an error report listing the error condition is generated and sent to
the WAWF AO for correction to the WAWF record. Situations which will fail the validation
logic and generate an error report include:
(a) Contract Number is not found in DAI.
(b) CLIN or SLIN is not found in DAI.
(c) Multiple Instances of Contract, CLIN or SLIN are found in DAI.
(d) The WAWF Invoice Unit of Measure does not equal DAI PO line Unit of
Measure.
(e) The WAWF Invoice Unit Price does not equal DAI Purchase Order Line Unit
Price.
(f) The PO shipment line is finally closed.
(g) The PO shipment line is cancelled.
(h) The PO is not approved in DAI.
(3) The invoice (WAWF 810) information is interfaced into DAI via Oracle Payables
open interface. Once the invoice record is imported in DAI, it will be validated and approved for
payment. The DCMA WAWF Administrator is responsible for communicating WAWF related
validity errors. The Contract Officer Representative is responsible for coordination and
correction WAWF related validity errors to include:
(a) A returned invoice is resubmitted by a vendor.
(b) A duplicate invoice number is submitted by a vendor.
(c) A voided invoice is submitted by a vendor.
DCMA-MAN 4301-05, Volume 2, June 24, 2019
Section 3: Process for P2P 26
3.9. FOREIGN CURRENCY.
a. Overview. To support DAI handling of Foreign Currency transactions, daily foreign
currency exchange rates will be loaded programmatically into DAI GL using the GL Daily Rates
Application Programming Interface. The source of the foreign exchange rates used by DAI will
be the International Treasury Service (ITS) who currently publish two-day, three-day, four-day,
and five-day projected spot exchange rates. ITS is also responsible for processing all DAI
foreign disbursement transactions, both U.S. Dollars and foreign currency, via DAI’s ADS
interface.
b. Process. DCMA is not a part of the centrally managed account; a separate POET from
the base obligation must be created for foreign currency gains and losses every FY. The
concurrent programs and request sets to complete the process will be scheduled to run daily in
DAI. The process of entering and maintaining exchange rates within DAI are established using
automated steps to include:
(1) ITS will generate a daily exchange rate data file daily and route this file to the
Defense Enterprise Computing Center Mechanicsburg facility for distribution to DoD systems.
(2) The data exchange will receive the ITS daily exchange rate data file, translate the
data within into the data mappings, and route the resulting data to DAI for processing.
(3) DAI will receive the daily exchange rate file from the data exchange, parse the daily
exchange rates data, and interface the data into DAI GL Daily Rates Interface table.
(4) DAI will automatically interface staged daily exchange rate data into DAI GL by
initiating the Program - Daily Rates Import and Calculation concurrent program for review to
ensure no errors occur.
(5) DFAS will review the log and output files from the Program - Daily Rates Import
and Calculation concurrent program to ensure successful completion.
(6) DFAS will manage the error handling process by:
(a) Contacting the Defense Logistics Agency DAI Help Desk to open an Incident or
Service Request.
(b) Coordinating with ITS to get the correct rate information.
(c) Providing the correct rate information for the file, having the file corrected and
reloaded by the technical support group.
(7) Successfully loaded foreign currency daily exchange rates will automatically be used
by the foreign currency transaction processes.
