<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>With
increasing frequency, OSPS is receiving funds from agencies that we cannot post
to OSPA. For example, we are receiving checks and money orders for
self-pay insurances and we find that agency payroll has not posted the
insurance self-pay transaction. Or, we receive an agency warrant or BT
transfer to clear an overpayment and find that no overpayment exists on the
P370 screen or, that the amounts do not match. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>We do
not feel comfortable posting funds before the payroll transactions have been
entered. Funds posted without the entry of the balancing entry will
result in a payout of the funds to the employee. We feel certain that
this is not your intended outcome. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

goal is to provide efficient and accurate service related to your needs to
process these transactions. Without your advance entry of these
accounting transactions, we may not be able to provide the result you expect
to see. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
