COMMENTS

  1. This report is requestable by agencies.
  2. Agencies should not request both monthly and daily versions of this report since the last daily report of the month will be identical to the monthly version.
  3. The report will only display those transactions which have processed completely through the system. It will not reflect the impact of on-line entered transactions that have not been released for final processing or batch transactions that have not yet cleared the error file.
  4. If an agency wants to monitor both months during concurrent processing periods, a separate daily report request for the prior month must be established on the first working day of the new month. This request should be deleted as soon as the prior month has been closed. If the request is not deleted, the agency will continue to receive the prior month report even though the data will not be changing.
