Title

US Federal IPAC Download File Process - Receiving Incoming 'Download' File

Purpose

The IPAC Download File process is to respond to an incoming "download" file from other U.S. Federal agency as a trading partner of ours. The incoming download file was downloaded by another agency and sent to Treasury as an outgoing IPAC bulk file.

This program handles both collection and payment transactions. Its main functions are as follows:

  • Upload the incoming download file originally sent by another Federal agency to the Treasury department. After consolidation by the Treasury department, the download file composes collection and payment transactions for multiple agencies.
  • Convert CSV file - Comma Separated Values, to be readable by the program
  • Extract transactions from the incoming download file according to the selection criteria
  • Identify the appropriate original invoice, either payment or collection, extracted transaction from the incoming download file. The main drivers for this process are the incoming file fields as follows:
  • Invoice Document Number

  • Obligating Document Number

  • Purchase Order Number

  • Application of Funds (Receiver Treasury Account Symbol).

  • Determine process to be performed for the 'matched' document. This could be a partial payment, full payment, document clearing and/or creation of a new document. All of these actions are posted against the Funds Balance with Treasury (FBT) account.
  • Generate a result list containing cleared and failed invoices out of the from the incoming download file
  • Generate a standard error log.

If you would need to reverse the documents created by the IPAC Download File process, you can use the report IPAC Download File Reverse Process, FMFG_IPACED_REVERSE to do this.
