What is G-Invoicing? § G-Invoicing (GINV) is a web-based application created to efficiently manage Intragovernmental (Intra-gov) buy/sell transactions between two federal agencies. § TFM Bulletin 2018 -10 mandated the use of GInvoicing for all Federal Program Agencies (FPAs) by June 30, 2021. Also within the bulletin it states that Agencies must submit an Agency Implementation Plan to Fiscal Service by Jun 28, 2019. 4 October 2018 U. S. Coast Guard Finance Center 3
Treasury’s G-Invoicing System § Treasury’s New Gov’t wide billing system is much more than a billing process. § It is suppose to be a complete transaction history: § General Terms and Conditions § Orders § Performance – Constructive delivery (Reciept) § Auto Settlement (IPAC) - Billing § This was attempted many years ago by Master. Card. 4 October 2018 U. S. Coast Guard Finance Center 4
Treasury’s Overview 4 October 2018 U. S. Coast Guard Finance Center 5
Treasury’s G-Invoicing System § Currently there is not an upload process to bring in data. (GT&C & Orders) § The process must start with the RMOs that either manage the reimbursement or those responsible for setting up the MIPR or IA. NOTE: This will be a challenge for all agencies that are not centralized. 4 October 2018 U. S. Coast Guard Finance Center 6
Why G-Invoicing? § Intra-Gov’t rptg § Confirmation § Elimination Entries § NFRs § Proper reporting of Liabilities, Receivables & Revenue. § Receipting – Most Gov’t agencies don’t do a good job at receipting from OGA. (So, auditors indicated that there is an over reliance on vendor supplied information) § Subsequently better Gov’t Wide reporting. 4 October 2018 U. S. Coast Guard Finance Center 7
Will G-Invoicing replace IPAC & Cross-Disbursing? § G-Invoicing is a progression of IPAC. § We are hopeful that Cross-Disbursing will go away. § Issues: § Many smaller agencies don’t have reimbursable authority. I. e. State Department, EPA, etc…(Advances maybe the wave of the future. ) § Assumes centralized Agreement Management. (Requires and Agency Admin) 4 October 2018 U. S. Coast Guard Finance Center 8
What should be happening now? § Agencies are required by OMB to have a plan by 06/28/19. (This is mandated) § GT&C updated – (Agencies must ID and admin) § Agreements/Orders need to be in the system. § Users must be established. 4 October 2018 U. S. Coast Guard Finance Center 9
Current Concerns: § ID’g who is creating the IA’s & MIPRs, Reimbursable Agreements by agency (Some have been in place for years). § All FY’ 19 agreements must by in the system. § The need for standardized interface from Agency Financial systems. (For both the Buyer and Seller). § Standardized Contacts with each agency. § What will Treasury’s over all design look like. § How to handle MILSTRIP billings. 4 October 2018 U. S. Coast Guard Finance Center 10
Where does this all lead? § Better overall gov’t reporting § Eventually leading to Treasury being able to provide Gov’t Wide Financial Statements. § Currently, Treasury requires GTAS & BETC reporting. (No more SF 224) § In the future IPP & G-Invoicing 4 October 2018 U. S. Coast Guard Finance Center 11
CG & NAVY Pilot § The Comptroller of DON and CG sponsored a project entitled “Push IPAC”. § Navy is working with DFAS on the implementation effort § The team is working with Treasury, DON, DFAS, USMC, Nav.
