ADAPT Bulletin 5/24/01

Announcement from HMS Finance Office:

May 31st is fast approaching and hopefully by now you are all using the new Web Voucher Reimbursement system and using STAR only to settle outstanding advances. A final reminder. Please have all STAR cash advances settled by 12 noon on May 31 to avoid an automatic journal settlement by the Travel Office (see close schedule below). Unsettled advances will be logged to object 8450 (ineligible) and 000001(unrestricted) funds within your Tub and Org.

STAR CLOSE SCHEDULE: May 29, 2001
STAR transactions that contain a tax review flag should be approved and received in Travel by 1:00 pm on Tuesday, May 29. Reports that require a review by Tax will be accepted after that time, but given the complexity of some reports, it cannot be guaranteed that they will be processed for payment before STAR is shut down. Travel and Tax will make every attempt to ensure all approved reports in the system are processed.

STAR CLOSE SCHEDULE: May 31, 2001
12:00 pm - The URL to STAR will be disabled for processing transactions.
4:00 pm - STAR receipt reports must be received in Travel for final processing. No reports will be accepted after 4:00 pm. STAR Reports received after 4:00 pm will be returned to the preparer with instructions to reprocess in Web Voucher Reimbursement.
5:30 pm - Last STAR feed to the GL/Data Warehouse.
June 4, 2001- You will be able to access old reports.
STAR query access available to all proxies. Please note: Once STAR is shut down, new proxies cannot be added to the system for viewing purposes.


If you have any questions regarding the STAR shut-down, please contact Sharon Reine at 432-4401.
