of Finance and Administration was created by NMSA 1978, §6-5-1 as
amended. The responsibilities enumerated in NMSA 1978, §6-5-1 through
§6-5-6, constitute the strategic, operational, reporting, and compliance
objectives of FCD and, collectively, its mission of effectively accounting for
and controlling the use of State resources.
The above referenced statutes require FCD to maintain a central system
of state accounts and to devise, formulate, approve, control, and set standards
for the accounting method and procedures of all state agencies of the State of
New Mexico.
In addition, the statutes require FCD to prescribe procedures, policies,
and processing documents for use by state agencies in connection with fiscal
matters. To this end, the statute requires FCD to issue a manual of model
accounting practices that includes the standards for the accounting methods
and procedures of all state agencies. Unit 1—System Administration and
Unit 2—Work Breakdown Structure and Policies — constitute the manual of
model accounting practices required by statute.   

0.2 State Agencies and the Manual of Model Accounting Practices

NMSA 1978, §6-5-1 through §6-5-6, establish requirements for both


FCD and state. The statutes require state agencies to implement internal
controls designed to prevent accounting errors and violations of state and
federal law and rules related to financial matters. In addition, it requires state
agencies to implement controls to prevent the submission of processing
documents to FCD that are in error or that are for a purpose not authorized by
law.
The statutes also require state agencies to determine the authority for all
proposed expenditures and to encumber the appropriate funds. In addition,
the statutes require state agencies to determine that any disbursement of
funds does not exceed the appropriation made to the agency, its periodic
allotment, or the unencumbered funds at its disposal.

0.3 Model Accounting Practices and Strategic, Operational, Reporting,


and Compliance Objectives

Given the above, FCD, by rule and by the issuance of its Manual of
Model Accounting Practices, has established for each agency strategic,
operational, reporting, and compliance objectives related to the agency’s

financial operations. Figure 2, which appears at the end of this section lists
those objectives and cross-references them to statutes and rules.

0.4 Strategies for Achieving Objectives

The State of New Mexico has adopted three strategies for achieving the
objectives referenced above.

Management Team
The State has established a management team to achieve the objectives.
This team consists of the state agencies’ chief financial officers (CFO). Rule
2.20.5 NMAC, an administrative rule issued by FCD, establishes the
responsibilities of a CFO. Those responsibilities parallel the state agency
strategic, operational, and reporting and compliance objectives established by
statute and by Rule 2.20.6 NMAC.

Adoption of Best Practices


The State has adopted “best practices” as its model accounting
practices. This included: 1) adopting generally accepted accounting
principles as its budgetary basis of accounting and 2) adopting “best
practices” for its financial operations. Best practices are documented in Unit
2 of this manual.
As a model of best practices and as a tool to implement them, the State
has implemented an enterprise resource planning system (ERP). The
decision was based on the premise that the processes within an ERP system
are based on best industry practices. ERP systems are used to plan the use of
enterprise-wide resources. As such, they integrate the data and processes of
an organization into a unified system.
The State of New Mexico’s ERP system is referred to as SHARE
(Statewide Human Resources, Accounting, and Management Reporting
System). The system consists of a number of integrated modules including
general ledger, payroll, human capital management, and fixed assets.
SHARE incorporates data from a number of external systems with their
own databases. These systems are used for atypical functions such as
investment accounting, tax revenue accounting, child support enforcement,
etc. Figure 1 includes a list of those subsidiary systems. The
interrelationship between SHARE’s integrated modules and its interfaced
subsidiary systems is illustrated in Sections 0.7 and 0.8. Once the State of
New Mexico Cash Remediation II project is completed this figure will be
updated.

The third strategy the State has adopted for achieving its objectives is
institutionalizing strategic, operational, reporting, and compliance objectives
by incorporating them into statutes and rules.

0.5 Statewide Accounting System Network

NMSA 1978, §6-5-2.1.F, as amended, requires FCD to prescribe,


develop, operate, and maintain a uniform statewide accounting system
network. Figure 3 is a diagram of that Network.
The Network is a business process, the purpose of which is to
effectively account for and control the use of resources. The Network is
based upon strategic, operational, compliance, and reporting objectives, all of
which are mandated by law, statute, or rule. Figure 2 illustrates the
correlation between the Network’s objectives and the mandates.
The Network is also based upon the principle of “predictable
processes”. Under that principle, objectives are achieved by processes that
predictably produce desired results. As illustrated in Figure 3, the Network
produces predictable results by:
 Defining objectives.
 Defining processes to achieve those objectives.
 Implementing the processes.
 Managing/controlling the processes.
 Providing resources to the processes.
 Executing the processes.
 Continually improving the processes.
The Network is made up of a number of components. The major
components of the Network are referenced to the applicable sections of this
manual.

0.6 Managing the Statewide Accounting System Network

The State Controller and the agencies’ chief financial officers manage
the Statewide Accounting System Network. Their primary responsibility is
achieving the objectives listed in Figure 2 by designing, implementing,
maintaining, and controlling processes within the Network. Figure 3
illustrates the role that processes take in the Network and includes a cross
reference to Unit 2 of this manual, which includes diagrams illustrating
individual processes and control points. Together, the processes and control
points represent “best practices”.
Controlling a process requires the Network manager to manage
resources both under his or her supervision, and under the supervision of
other managers. Accordingly, the Network manager must play two
management roles: operational and executive.
As an operational manger, the Network manager is responsible for
directly supervising tasks and ensuring results, while also ensuring that all
resources being expended on a process are making a worthwhile
contribution. On the other hand, as an executive manager, the Network
manager is responsible for ensuring that process resources not under his or
her supervision are contributing to success of the process. This requires two
different management approaches.
The dual role of the Network manager is best illustrated by an example:
As an operational manager, the CFO of an agency directly supervises three
accounts payable positions. The positions pre-audit invoices, match them to
receiving reports, and prepare payment vouchers. The CFO verifies data
entry and approves payment.
In addition, as an executive manager, the CFO must ensure that the
program staff, which is staff she does not supervise, properly receives the
goods or services and forwards, to her accounts payable staff, the receiving
reports on a timely basis. She does this by:
 Issuing instructions that include deadlines,
 Providing training to new program staff,
 Working with program managers to include in employees’
performance appraisals the tasks of properly receiving goods
and services and forwarding receiving reports on a timely
basis, and
 By reporting in writing, to program managers, the failure of
program staff to perform their accounts payable tasks.
Figure 4 is a diagram illustrating the dual role of a Network manager. It
also illustrates key responsibilities of the manager including development of
human resources, establishing values and objectives, knowing what results
are expected, and obtaining results.

System Network, (see Figure 3).
Figure 5 illustrates the SHARE Human Capital Work Breakdown

comprising the workflows’ detail tasks are illustrated in Figure 6.
Network managers must use the information in Figures 2, 5, and 6 to
perform, at least quarterly, a risk assessment and to develop strategies to
avoid risk.
The information in Figures 2, 5, and 6 is generic in nature, and is,
therefore, all-inclusive. Accordingly, to perform a risk assessment, Network
managers must modify the information to reflect their agencies’ individual
circumstances.

0.9 Internal Control Framework

0.9.1 Internal Control Environment


The internal environment includes the tone of an organization,
influencing the risk consciousness of its people, and is the basis for all other
components of an enterprise’s risk management. The tone of the State of
New Mexico’s internal environment is established by statutes and rules.
Figure 2 is a summary of those statutes and rules, which have been copied in
their entirety in Sections 0.9.1.1 and 0.9.1.2.
In summary, the State of New Mexico has a low risk tolerance. This is
reflected in its adoption of generally accepted accounting principles as its
budgetary basis, its adoption by rule of operating standards, its recognition in
statute of model accounting practices, and its implementation of an enterprise
resource planning tool based on “best practices.”

0.9.2 Risk Assessment—Entity and Activity Level
Figure 2, in conjunction with Figures 5 and 6 represent a risk
assessment at both the entity and activity levels associated with the State of
New Mexico’s comprehensive annual financial report. Each state agency
issuing its own audited financial statements must expand upon the
assessment by performing an assessment of its own. That assessment must be
in the same format as the assessment in the manual.

0.9.3 Control Activities


Unit 2 of this Manual includes the work breakdown structure for the
Statewide Accounting System Network. The work breakdown structure
consists of processes and related control points. These control points are
“control activities” that ensure that processes are completed successful and
achieve procedural, reporting and compliance objectives. The control
activities are referenced within the workflow diagrams in Unit 2. The
following pages provide process diagrams that illustrate each activity. The
activities are as follows.
A: To Authorize
B: To Record
C: To Report
D: To Verify (initial)

0.9.4 Information and Communication


The FCD Website and this manual are important communication tools.
Unit 1 Section 0.1 explains in more detail the function this manual plays in
communication.
Outside expectations are communicated primarily by enactment of
statutes (through a citizen legislature). Issuance of rules by FCD is also a
primary communication tool.
The Chief Financial Officer organizational structure, which promotes
continuous, direct contact between the state agencies and FCD, is a third
important tool for insuring that outside expectations are known (in terms of
both FCD and the agencies).

0.9.5 Monitoring
Monitoring consists of the following activities:
 Control Activities A through F,
 Financial Control Division Pre-audit Activities,
 Pre-audit activities carried out by the state agencies,
 Revenue estimating by the Department of Finance and
Administration, Taxation and Revenue Department, and the
Legislative Finance Committee,
 Budget analysis activities of the Department of Finance and
Administration, State Budget Division,
 Budget monitoring activities by state agencies,
 Management oversight.

FIN 3.1 Interagency Transactions

A. MAP Standard

To assure accurate reporting, all interagency transactions should be properly prepared, reconciled, and
entered into SHARE.

B. Purpose

This policy establishes the requirement that all state agencies involved in interagency transactions
shall properly classify those interagency transactions to accurately reflect the financial events being
recorded in the financial records.

C. Authority

NMSA 1978, §6-5-2

D. Policy

1. For FCD to approve any interagency transaction, the following must be submitted.

Operating Transfers (OPR)

a. The Financial Control Division (FCD) must receive the OPR Form prepared in
accordance with the OPR Form instructions located on the DFA website under
Information Management Bureau.

i. The header business unit must be 39401.

ii. The first line of the transaction must be a “dummy” line with the business unit 39401,
no fund, department 0000000000, and account 20000.

b. All affected agencies’ transactions must be reflected on the OPR Form.

c. The submitted OPR Form must bear the original signature of the originating agency’s
(paying) Chief Financial Officer (CFO or authorized personnel). The originating
agency must load the OPR into SHARE and ensure the journal entry status is “valid” and
budget status is “valid” for all business units. The originating agency must submit the
OPR to initiate the transaction to go through workflow and have a level 2 approval.

d. If the OPR is impacting numerous receiving agencies, each agency’s CFO or authorized
personnel must approve the OPR within 48 hours from the level 2 approval in
SHARE. The 48 hour deadline starts after the OPR has been initiated and level 2
approval completed by the initiating agency.

By approving the OPR Form online in SHARE’s workflow, each agency’s CFO or
authorized personnel is confirming the validity of the transaction and the accounting

string(s). If there are any changes indicated on the OPR Form, the data must also be
changed, reloaded into SHARE and resubmitted to ensure proper workflow. The revised
OPR form must also be sent to FCD with the signature of the initiating agency.

e. When using other financing sources/uses (499905 Other Financing Sources and 555100
Other Financing Uses) in an OPR, both accounts should be used for the receiving and
paying agencies, respectfully. When only one other financing account code is used in the
OPR, documentation showing why the transaction is required to be recorded in a non-
other financing account code must be included with the OPR Form.

i. The affiliate and fund affiliate are required on these transactions.

f. For business relationships between agencies that are elimination entries on the CAFR
level financial statements, agencies must use revenue and expenditure codes that end in
“09”.

i. The affiliate and fund affiliate are required on these transactions.

g. If the OPR Form does not comply with the policy, it will be rejected back to the
originating agency for corrections and resubmission.

h. Month end OPRs (last business day of the month) will only be approved by DFA if the
initiating agency’s level 2 approval is reflected in SHARE no later than the last day of the
month. If there are any errors with the OPR, then the OPR will not be accepted for
processing that month and will be rejected back to the agency to resubmit for the
following month.

i. Unless exemption is specifically approved by FCD, all agencies must comply with the
above policy.

Due To and Due From Transactions (Journal Entries and Operating Transfers)

Journal Entry:

a. The Statewide Financial Reporting and Accountability Bureau (SFRAB) must receive the
CFR from both Business Units.

b. Each agency’s CFR must have all corresponding agency’s journal ID in the description or
a copy of the journal entry included with the back-up.

c. No CFR submitted for a Due To or Due From will be posted by SFRAB until the
appropriate corresponding agency’s CFR has been submitted to SFRAB.

OPR:

d. The Financial Control Division (FCD) must receive the OPR Form prepared in
accordance with the OPR Form instructions.

i. The header business unit must be 39401.


ii. The first line of the transaction must be a “dummy” line with the business unit 39401,
no fund, department 0000000000, and account 20000.

e. When using interagency accounts (142900 – Due From Other State Agencies, 142999 –
Due From Other State Agy Pr Yr, 232900 – Due To Other State Agencies, and 232999 –
Due To Other State Agy - Pr Yr) in an OPR, both accounts must be used for the receiving
and paying agencies, respectfully. When only one interagency account code is used in
the OPR, documentation showing the transaction was previously recorded in a non-
interagency account code prior to July 11, 2014 must be included with the OPR Form.

i. The affiliate and fund affiliate are required on those transactions.

For example, agency A recorded an interagency receivable using account code 142900 –
Due From Other State Agencies; however, agency B recorded an interagency payable in
account code 296900 – Year End Accounts Payable. In this scenario, agency B will be
required to provide documentation that the payable was recorded in account 296900
instead of account 232900 – Due To Other State Agencies.

f. If the OPR Form does not comply with the policy, it will be rejected back to the
originating agency for corrections and resubmission.

Year-End Accruals (Journal Entries and Audit Journal Entries)

a. No Audit Entry (CFR, OPR, CSH journal entry) submitted for a Due To or Due From
will be posted by SFRAB until the appropriate corresponding agency’s Audit Entry has
been submitted to SFRAB.

b. Each agency’s Audit Entry must have all corresponding agency’s journal ID in the
description or a copy of said Audit Entry journal entry, or include the corresponding
agency CFO’s confirmation of the interagency year end accrual. This confirmation
can be done by email or fax.

c. If the Audit Entry is impacting numerous agencies, each agency’s CFO must provide
confirmation. Each agency’s CFO or authorized personnel must approve the journal
entry within 48 hours from the level 2 approval in SHARE. The 48 hour deadline
starts after the journal entry has been initiated and level 2 approval completed by the
initiating agency.

d. By confirming the Audit Entry each agency’s CFO is agreeing to the validity of the
transaction and that their respective agency has also accrued the interagency transaction
using the proper accounts.

e. Agencies can utilize the OPR to accommodate year end accruals, and Due To and Due
From entries. The OPR must have no cash lines inferred on the entry. Utilization of the
OPR will ensure the journal is processed through workflow, the transaction is recorded
on both agencies’ financials, and both CFOs approve the transaction in SHARE.

B. Purpose

This policy establishes the requirement of state agencies to process transactions using the appropriate
procedure.

C. Authority

NMSA 1978, §6-5-2

D. Policy

1. State agencies must use the Journal Entry function to record transactions in SHARE that cannot
be recorded using another type of process. The types of transactions that can be posted through
the Journal Entry function are:

b. CFR Must be used if the journal entry adjusts any combination of ACCOUNT, or
DEPARTMENT in the SAME FUND with no cash lines inferred (if moving between
departments rolling up to different P-Codes, S-Code, Z-Code, or A-code).
Examples of journal entries requiring the use of the CFR source are: 1) Entries made
between nominal accounts residing in the same department value; 2) Entries affecting
two balance sheet accounts in the same fund; 3) Entries affecting a balance sheet
account and a nominal account in the same fund and; 4) Reclassifying amounts from
one department to another department regardless of other chartfields in the same
fund. An agency is to submit all CFR journal entries to FCD for approval and
posting. If an agency needs to transfer cash between its own funds, then a CSH
journal entry must be used.

c. AGY Used to adjust agency-specific Chartfields (e.g. SUB ACCOUNT, REPORTING


CATEGORY, OPERATING UNIT). These entries are not submitted to FCD for
approval, the agency approves these journal entries. An agency may use an AGY
journal entry to adjust balances between DEPARTMENTS making no ACCOUNT or
FUND change as long as the departments roll up to the same P-Code.

d. OPR Must be used to transfer monies between state agencies


(Business Units). All operating transfers are approved by FCD. Please see the
journal upload process on the FCD website under the Operating Transfers heading in
the Information Management webpage at
http://nmdfa.state.nm.us/Information_Management.aspx .

posting.

i. ALT Used by DFA (only) to process allotments.

Note: Currently, agencies are required to submit all CFR, CSH, OPR, EXT, and WCN journals to
FCD for approval and posting; while, AGY journal entries are not processed by DFA. DFA has
decided that beginning in April 2009, the CAFR Unit will review all AGY journals posted. The CAFR
Unit will reverse any AGY journal entry that was used to make inappropriate adjustments. Upon
notification, by the CAFR Unit, the agency will be required to submit the adjustment as a CFR or
CSH to FCD.

4. The Agency’s Accounting Section must approve all AGY (non-affecting Fund) Journal Entries
after receiving and reviewing the supporting documentation.

FIN 3.6 Journal Entry Completion

A. Statement

This procedure addresses the processing of Journal Entries.

B. Procedures

State Agency

1. Prepare the Journal Entry. Use internal procedures to determine the codes and data needed for
the Journal Entry, and complete and verify the accuracy of the following:

a. Document Number – number cannot exceed 10 characters and can contain only those
characters authorized by FCD. The document number must be unique. Authorized
characters include alpha, numeric, and these special characters (* / - , $ %). All other
characters may not be used and are not authorized to be used in the document number field.
System assigned numbers can be generated by utilizing the Add button shown in the Create
Journal Entry screen under the General Ledger Function. Navigation to this screen is General
Ledger/Journals/Journal Entry/Create Journal Entries/Add a New Value.

b. Enter the data required for the Journal Entry. For all CFR journal entries, the first accounting
line of the journal entry must contain a department value in order for the entry to go through
the workflow process. If you entry does not require a department value a dummy line 1
should reflect a your agencies’ business unit, fund, department code, balance sheet account
that does not require an affiliate and fund affiliate and zero amount, in order for entry to go
through the workflow process. CFR journal entries can either be created directly in SHARE
or the Journal Entry Upload process can be utilized. For CSH journal entries, they must be
done using the Journal Entry Upload. The header business unit needs to be 39401 and the
first line needs to be the “dummy” line of business unit 39401, no fund, department of
0000000000, and account code of 200000. For OPR journal entries, they must be done
using the Journal Entry Upload. The header business unit needs to be 39401 and the first line
needs to be the “dummy” line 1 of business unit 39401, no fund, department of 0000000000,
and account code of 200000.

c. Attach the required supporting documentation to the Journal Entry. Any document generated
from SHARE that provides the necessary support for the journal entry will be accepted to
support the adjustment. If an accounting line is comprised of more than one amount, attach a
worksheet or calculator tape that indicates the total of the multiple amounts. This total should
agree with the amount reflected on the journal entry. All backup should be 8 ½ x 11.

d. State in the explanation box the justification for the Journal Entry. (If the justification is
complete and accurate, it can help the preparer determine the appropriateness of the
supporting documentation). Entries should be entered with corresponding debit(s) and
credit(s); therefore, should have a one to one relationship (simple entry). Completing this
process will facilitate the review and reconciliation and review process. Print the Journal
Entry Detail Report.

applicable amounts including notations next to the amounts included in the calculation.

b. For imaging purposes, only 8 ½ by 11 documents will be accepted. Any documents


submitted larger than 8 ½ x 11 will be rejected.

c. Underline pertinent information instead of highlighting the information due to the fact the
highlighted amounts do not image correctly.

d. Only one staple in the middle of the journal is allowed. Do NOT paperclip your documents
together. Do NOT paperclip your documents together.

e. Order for the journal entry should be: original journal entry, supporting documentation and
the last page should be a copy of the first page of the journal entry to be returned to the
agency once posted. The original journal entry with supporting documentation will be
imaged after posting.

f. All the pages of the journal entry (journal entry and support) should read like a book.

i. To determine if the journal is in the correct format, hold the stapled side in your left hand
and ensure it can be read like a book.

g. Agencies should reference Documentation Standard located on the DFA website:


http://nmdfa.state.nm.us under Resource Information, Forums, CFO Training 09/26/11,
Document Standard Presentation, and Document Standards Handout 2

agreements. Select “JPA” for joint powers agreement or “MOU” for memorandum of
understanding or “GSA” for governmental service agreements.

(NMSA 1978, §13-1-127) follow the procedures below.

B. Procedures

State Agency

1. Determine if an emergency condition exists that requires the purchase of services or items of
tangible property, or immediate construction, which cannot be met through normal procurement
methods. “Emergency condition” means that without the purchase, any of the following would
be seriously threatened (a) the functioning of government, (b) the preservation or protection of
property, or (c) the health or safety of any person.

2. Prepare a memorandum addressed to the FCD Director stating the emergency, identifying the
category (a, b or c, above) within which the emergency procurement is justified. The
memorandum should originate from the chief financial officer of the requesting state agency (e.g.
Department Secretary, Agency Director, or the Administrative Services Division Director). The
emergency memorandum and supporting documentation need to be submitted within five
working days to FCD. Send a copy of the justification to State Purchasing.

3. Complete a Purchase Order, check the “Excluded from Procurement through State Purchasing”
box, and along with the above memorandum, submit to FCD the completed Purchase Order.

FCD

4. If the procurement has already occurred and the FCD Director:

a. Determines that the justification provided does meet the requirement of the emergency
procurement section of State Procurement Code, process the document following normal
procedures.

b. Determines that the justification provided does not meet the requirement of the emergency
procurement section of State Procurement Code, return the document to the originating state
agency for processing under the violation of the procurement code procedures, which are
presented in this chapter on FIN 4.15 State Procurement Code Violations.

5. If the procurement has not yet occurred and the FCD Director:

a. Determines that the emergency procurement is justified, process the Purchase Order using
"special processing" (expedited) procedures.

b. Determines that the emergency procurement is not justified; return the Purchase Order to the
originating state agency for normal processing.

Technology for posting on the “Sunshine Portal” as well as the Legislative Finance
Committee as is required by statute) and attach the required Sole Source Determination
Form. Wait thirty (30) days pursuant to statute. After the sole source posts for thirty (30)
days, the appropriate contractual method can be pursued by the agency (professional
services agreement, Department of Information Technology agreement or simple
purchase order depending on the type of services being procured).

3. Complete the Purchase Order and all other required documents. Send FCD the
completed Purchase Order, a copy of the approval letter from the State Purchasing
Division, General Services Department for the sole source procurement, and the
completed contract.

FCD

4. The FCD Audit Bureau will run a daily on-line Query Purchase Order Report to review and
approve purchase orders or change orders for their assigned block of agencies.

5. The FCD Audit Bureau will audit the Query Purchase Order Report for completeness and
correctness of data and appropriateness of supporting documentation as required.

D. Policy

All disbursements of state monies shall be made using one of the following:

1. Payment Vouchers/Warrants – These documents are used for the majority of the cash
disbursements including travel-related disbursements.

2. Payment Load/Warrants – With authorization from Financial Control Division (FCD), state

vendor file, request the vendor be added.

c. Reference the correct encumbrance document if one exists. Documents requiring an


encumbrance will not be processed without a Purchase Order reference.

d. Attach the required supporting documentation. Generally, which can be paper or legible
printout of an authenticated e-invoice. If submitting a copy of an invoice, the person
authorized by the state agency to sign Payment Vouchers must certify on the invoice copy
that:

1. The original invoice has been lost or destroyed (whichever applies) and cannot be
located.

2. A true copy of a valid original invoice is being provided.

3. The accounting records have been checked and no part (or only part) of the invoice has
been previously paid. (If an amount has been previously paid, the amount must be
stated.)

Note: Adoption of e-Invoicing continues to grow and the processing conventions built around the
paper invoice must be modified to create an environment where it is as straightforward as possible to
accommodate the use and acceptance of e-Invoicing with the State’s trading partners while assuring
invoicing authenticity and overall control of the payment process.

From a control perspective, e-Invoicing must still ensure authenticity and integrity of the billing. 
“Authenticity of the origin” means the assurance of the identity of the supplier or the issuer of the
invoice and “Integrity of content” means that the required invoice content has not been altered.
Therefore when submitting e-Invoices to Financial Control Division for processing the following
standards shall be established and the responsibility of Agencies as direct recipient of e-Invoices.

Responsible for ensuring authenticity of the origin and the integrity of the content of an electronic
invoice will be the responsibility of the Agency by confirming:

A. MAP Standard

To ensure legal compliance, state agencies must have internal controls for handling expedited

require FCD to deviate from normal operating procedures and interrupt the timely processing of other
documents. State agencies are encouraged to keep these requests to a minimum.

D. Policy

1. The following method is available to state agencies for expediting payments issued by FCD:

a. “Special Processing” produces a warrant by the same day if FCD approves the request
submitted by the CFO. State agencies must follow FCD’s "special processing" procedures
and submit error-free documents for processing.

2. Special Processing should originate from the chief financial officer of the requesting state agency,
(e.g., Department Secretary, Agency Director, or the Administrative Services Division Director)
if one of these persons cannot sign the requests, prior approval from the FCD Director or Deputy
Director must be obtained before submitting such requests for special processing.

3. The requests must be approved by the FCD Director or Deputy Director. If denied, the payments
will be included in regular processing.

voucher. If the WCN journal entry is not posted, the original expenditure amount is recorded
twice, once in the prior fiscal year and again in the fiscal year the cancellation occurred.
When the warrant is cancelled, SHARE reverses the original transactions using all of the
chartfields included in each transaction. Since the original transaction used the prior year’s

Example:
Payment 1 was issued on January 1, 2017 for $100.00 to expense account 547300, budget
reference 117, class code A0000 and was never received

Payment 2 was issued on December 1, 2017 to replace Payment 1 for $100 to expense
account 547300, budget reference 118, class code B0000

Payment 1 was cancelled on December 5, 2017 resulting in a debit to cash and a credit to
expense account 547300, budget reference 117, class code A0000

To correct the double accounting, a WCN journal will debit Payment 1’s accounting string
from the cancellation done on December 5, 2017. The offset will be a credit to Payment 2’s
accounting string.

i.e WCN Dated 12/05/2017

DR Expense 547300, Budget Reference 117, Class Code A0000 100.00


CR Expense 547300, Budget Reference 118, Class Code B0000 100.00

h. Voucher Build – Yes Re-Issue Warrant with Different Vendor and/or Amount – If the
original warrant is to be cancelled because an incorrect vendor and/or amount and a new
payment is necessary, prepare and issue new payment through the agency’s external system
using the established accounting string for voucher build payments for your agency. An
approved Request to Pay Prior Year Bills form must be requested for the new payment and a
copy must be attached to the warrant cancellation request. Then, complete the Warrant
Cancellation form with a current date as a Type 9 referencing the original accounts used. In
addition, the agency must attach a WCN journal entry with a current date debiting the
original expenditure account(s) and crediting account 241900 – Stale Dated Warrants/Due to
the General Fund when there is no purchase order attached to the voucher.

The WCN journal is required to offset the debit to the expenditure account that is recorded
during the warrant cancellation process. If the WCN journal entry is not posted, the original
expenditure amount is recorded twice, once in the prior fiscal year and again in the fiscal year
the cancellation occurred. When the warrant is cancelled, SHARE reverses the original
transactions using all of the chartfields included in each transaction. Since the original
transaction used the prior year’s budget reference and class code, the WCN journal entry will
also need to reference the same budget reference and class to properly net the transactions to
zero in the current fiscal year. A budget error will occur when the WCN journal is edited,

FIN 5.23 Minor Purchases of Food, Refreshments, and Similar Consumable Purchases

A. MAP Standard

To ensure that resources are efficiently and judiciously used for authorized purposes only,
state agencies must have internal controls to verify that all disbursements are authorized by
law.

B. Purpose

This policy establishes criteria for the purchase of small amounts of food, refreshments,
snacks and similar purchases under the current individual per diem rate.

C. Authority

Article IV, Section 14, New Mexico Constitution (Anti-Donation Clause)


NMSA 1978, §6-5-2

D. Policy

Small amounts of food, refreshments, snacks and similar purchases must comply with the
following:

1. The purchases must be related directly to an event (training, conference, etc.) that is a
part of the agency’s mission and regular course of business.

2. The purchases must not exceed the current partial day per diem rate for meals per
attendee at the event. For example single meal $12.00; two meals $20.00 per individual.

3. Certification of per person expenditure accompany the invoice when submitted to FCD
for payment.

4. In those cases where the amounts would exceed those established in this Standard, a
White Paper will be required. However, every effort should be made to keep costs below
the current per diem rate for meals. Compelling exigent circumstances will need to be
present and proven in order to exceed current per diem meal rates.

5. Such purchases are considered miscellaneous expenses and must be charged to the
correct expenditure chart of accounts (400) and account code (547900).

8. Employer paid meals are considered a fringe benefit by the IRS and could be taxable
income. However, meals for the most part are excluded from the employee's wages as it
is considered a de minimis (little value) benefit. Care needs to be taken as to frequency
and amount spent on meals to ensure it remains de minimis in the eyes of the IRS.

E. Applicability

These polices apply to all state agencies.

FIN 7.4 Debt Service Fund

A. MAP Standard

To properly manage long-term debt, resources for debt service must be recognized and recorded.

B. Purpose

This policy establishes the requirement that the resources to service long-term debt be recognized and
recorded so as to demonstrate compliance with: 1) any conditions, contingencies, or limitations
imposed by legislation, rules, or regulations; 2) the terms, covenants, conditions, and other
requirements of the related debt instrument; 3) the budgetary basis of accounting used by the State;
and 4) generally accepted accounting principles.

C. Authority

NMSA 1978, §6-5-2


Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

D. Policy

1. Generally accepted accounting principles permit debt service funds be used if: (a) the use of a
debt service fund is legally required, or (b) financial resources are being accumulated for
principal and interest payments maturing in future years.

2. For accounting purposes, FCD requires that agencies use a separate debt service fund for each
debt issue. Debt service funds should be used to accumulate resources for the payment of general
long-term debt, and to record and report the service the debt.

3. For the “General Purpose Financial Statements”, a separate debt service fund is not required for
each debt issue.

4. Long-term debt related to proprietary funds and trust funds belongs to the fund itself and is
recorded therein, not in a debt service fund.

5. Claims, judgments, leases of equipment, etc. are normally paid from the operating resources of an
entity and not from a debt service fund.

6. The number of debt service funds used by the State should be kept to the minimum required by
legal and sound financial administration. Agencies should contact FCD personnel if a question
arises as to the necessity of creating a debt service fund.

7. Agencies must have internal controls to ensure debt service funds are used only for their intended
purpose. Any questions regarding the use of debt service funds should be directed to FCD.

8. Agencies that have tax intercepts that are sent directly to pay for bonds, debt, etc. are still
required to record the debt service payment on their financials even though this money did not
“pass through” their agency. Any questions regarding this process should be directed to FCD.

the format specified by the Federal grantor. If the Federal grantor allows for direct funding
drawdowns without the submission of an invoice, the grantee shall maintain all documentation
necessary to support the drawdown request and shall make that documentation available for both
Single audit and grantor audit requirements.

FIN 9.2 Grants Management- Funding Criteria and Oversight Requirements

A. MAP Standard

Assure State capital outlay appropriations granted by State agencies to other entities are expended in
accordance with law and that grant funds and assets acquired with grant funds are properly accounted
for and safeguarded.

B. Purpose

This document establishes uniform funding criteria for grantees to receive State capital outlay
appropriations and grant management and oversight requirements.

C. Authority

Executive Order 2013-006- Establishing Uniform Funding Criteria and Grant Management and
Oversight Requirements for Grants of State Capital Outlay Appropriations by State Agencies to Other
Entities.

NMSA 1978, §6-5-2(A), (granting FCD the authority to "devise, formulate, approve, control and set
standards for the accounting methods and procedures of all state agencies" and to "prescribe
procedures, policies and processing documents for use by state agencies in connection with fiscal
matters"); NMSA 1978, §6-5-2.(A) (authorizing FCD to "coordinate all procedures for financial
administration and financial control and integrate them into an adequate and unified system"); and
NMSA 1978, §6-5-2.l(Q) (authorizing FCD to "make improvements in the state's model accounting
practices, systems and procedures").

D. Policy

1. Non-Tribal Government grantees- uniform funding criteria. The following uniform funding
criteria must be met for a non-Tribal Government grantee to be eligible to receive a grant of a
State capital outlay appropriation:

a. for the most recently concluded fiscal year, a grantee must have submitted the report of its
annual audit or agreed upon procedures, as required by NMSA 1978, §12-6-3(A)-(B), if the
due date for the report under Rule 2.2.2 NMAC has passed;

b. if the due date for the annual audit or agreed upon procedures report for the most recently
concluded fiscal year was forty-five (45) or more days before the date on which a grant is
made or a project is certified to the State Board of Finance, the report must be a public
record pursuant to NMSA 1978, §12-6-5(A). For example, in July 2013, the relevant fiscal
year for applying this and the previous criterion to counties is Fiscal Year 2012, since the
Fiscal Year 2012 audit report was due to the State Auditor on November 15, 2012, and the
Fiscal Year 2013 audit report is not due to the State Auditor until November 15, 2013. If a
county's Fiscal Year 2012 audit report was not a public record in July 2013, the county would
not be eligible to receive a grant of a State capital outlay appropriation at that time;

December 15, 2022
System Administration, Work Breakdown Structure, and Policies_____________________
2.0 Unit 2—Work Break Down Structure and Policies
FIN 9 – Grants Management
Policies & Procedures FIN 9.2

c. in the case of a grantee whose most recent annual audit report, agreed upon procedures report,
or special audit report released since its most recent annual audit or agreed upon procedures
report became a public record documents material weaknesses, significant deficiencies, or
findings that raise concerns about the grantee's ability to expend grant funds in accordance
with applicable law and account for and safeguard grant funds and assets acquired with grant
funds:

i. the grantee must have remedied the material weaknesses, significant deficiencies, and
findings to the satisfaction of the State agency making the grant;

ii. the State agency making the grant must have determined that it can impose and has the
resources to implement special grant conditions that adequately address those
weaknesses, deficiencies, and findings; or

iii. the State agency making the grant must have determined that another appropriate entity is
able and willing to act as fiscal agent for the grant;

d. in the case of a grantee that is not required to have annual audits or agreed upon procedures
conducted under the Audit Act:

i. the grantee must have otherwise demonstrated to the satisfaction of the State agency
making the grant that it has adequate accounting methods and procedures to expend grant
funds in accordance with applicable law and account for and safeguard grant funds and
assets acquired by grant funds;

ii. the State agency must have determined that it can impose and has the resources to
implement special grant conditions that will adequately address any relevant deficiencies
in the grantee's accounting methods and procedures; or

iii. the State agency must have determined that another appropriate entity is able and willing
to act as fiscal agent for the grant; and

e. the grantee must have a budget approved by its oversight agency (if any) for the current fiscal
year and be in compliance with any financial reporting requirements.

2. Tribal Government grantees - uniform funding criteria. The following uniform funding criteria
must be met for a Tribal Government grantee to be eligible to receive a grant of a State capital
outlay appropriation:

a. for the most recently concluded fiscal year, a grantee must have timely submitted to the
federal government all forms and federal single audit documentation required under the
federal Single Audit Act of 1984, as amended, and Office of Management and Budget
Circular No. A-133, if the due date for the report under federal law has passed. A federal
single audit report is timely submitted for purposes of this criterion if submitted by any
extended due date granted by the grantee's federal cognizant agency;

301
December 15, 2022
System Administration, Work Breakdown Structure, and Policies_____________________
2.0 Unit 2—Work Break Down Structure and Policies
FIN 9 – Grants Management
Policies & Procedures FIN 9.2

b. in the case of a grantee whose most recent federal single audit raises concerns about the
grantee's ability to expend grant funds in accordance with applicable law and account for and
safeguard grant funds and assets acquired with grant funds:

i. the grantee must have remedied the inadequacies in its accounting methods and
procedures to the satisfaction of the State agency making the grant;

ii. the State agency making the grant must have determined that it can impose and has the
resources to implement special grant conditions that adequately address the inadequacies
in the grantee's accounting methods and procedures; or

iii. the State agency making the grant must have determined that another appropriate entity is
able and willing to act as fiscal agent for the grant.

3. Uniform funding criteria are minimums. The uniform funding criteria in paragraphs 1 and 2 of
this Section D are minimums. State agencies are not precluded from imposing other, more
stringent funding criteria or grant conditions.

4. Prefunding determinations concerning uniform funding criteria.

a. State agencies are responsible for ensuring that the uniform funding criteria are met prior (i)
to certifying to the State Board of Finance for the issuance of severance tax bonds,
supplemental severance tax bonds, or general obligation bonds for a project or (ii) to making
a grant of a State capital outlay appropriation to a grantee.

b. In the event that more than one State agency receives an appropriation for the same grantee,
those State agencies will coordinate their review concerning the grantee's compliance with
the applicable uniform funding criteria so as to (i) ensure that the grantee does not receive
multiple requests for the same information and (ii) prevent inconsistent determinations on
whether the grantee has adequate accounting methods and procedures to expend grant funds
in accordance with applicable law and account for and safeguard grant funds and assets
acquired by grant funds. COB shall notify State agencies that received an appropriation for
the same grantee and designate a lead agency from among those agencies to coordinate the
review of the grantee's compliance with the applicable uniform funding criteria and interact
with the grantee during the prefunding review process.

c. If the State agency receiving the appropriation has determined that one or more of the
uniform funding criteria has not been met, the State agency will communicate the results of
its review to the grantee. At this time, the grantee will have an opportunity to respond to the
State agency's assessment and/or work and consult with the State agency to remedy
deficiencies in the grantee's accounting methods and procedures through corrective action,
special conditions, or use of an appropriate fiscal agent. The State agency shall consider and
give due deference to any corrective action plan submitted to or approved by a federal
agency making an award to the grantee. The State agency may require Grantees to
demonstrate that corrective action has been implemented through an agreed-upon procedures
engagement with a certified public accountant. If the State agency determines that
deficiencies have not been remedied through corrective action, special conditions, or use of

302
December 15, 2022
System Administration, Work Breakdown Structure, and Policies_____________________
2.0 Unit 2—Work Break Down Structure and Policies
FIN 9 – Grants Management
Policies & Procedures FIN 9.2

an appropriate fiscal agent, the State agency will not certify for the issuance of bonds or
initiate a grant agreement at that time.

d. With respect to Tribal Government grantees, the following additional procedures will apply.

i. Use of data collection firm for reporting on federal single audits. State agencies will use
federal Form SF-SAC (or its successor firms) to make an initial assessment of a Tribal
Government grantee's accounting methods and procedures. If the form reflects an
unqualified opinion and no significant deficiencies, material weaknesses, instances of
material noncompliance, or questioned costs, the State agency will make a determination
of eligibility under the adequate accounting methods and procedures criterion. If the form
reflects an opinion other than unqualified, a significant deficiency, a material weakness, a
material noncompliance, or questioned costs, the State agency will request from the
Tribal Government grantee relevant sections of the single audit report to analyze.

ii. Contents of single audit report to be disclosed to State agency . Tribal Government
grantees will not be required to provide the State agency with copies of the financial
statements, notes to financial statements, or supplementary information sections of the
single audit report for purposes of assessing whether the grantee has adequate accounting
methods and procedures to expend grant funds in accordance with applicable law and
account for and safeguard grant funds and assets acquired by grant funds.

5. Continual compliance with uniform funding criteria. Throughout the term of the grant, State
agencies must monitor a grantee's compliance with the applicable uniform funding criteria and
take appropriate action to remedy non-compliance.

6. Template capital outlay grant agreements. State agencies shall utilize the applicable template
capital outlay grant agreement developed by COB.

7. Private use of capital assets. State agencies must ensure that the private use of capital assets
acquired by a grantee with State capital outlay appropriations complies with law. As a general
condition to reimbursing the grantee for qualifying expenditures, the sale, lease, or license of
capital assets to a private entity or an operating agreement with a private entity:

a. must be approved by the applicable oversight entity (if any) in accordance with law; or

b. if no oversight entity is required to approve of the transaction, the State agency must approve
of the transaction as complying with law.

Prior to the sale, lease, license, or operating agreement being approved pursuant to subparagraph
(a) or (b) above, the State agency may, in its discretion and unless inconsistent with New Mexico
State Board of Finance imposed conditions, reimburse the grantee for necessary expenditures
incurred to develop the project sufficiently to make the sale, lease, license, or operating
agreement commercially feasible, such as plan and design expenditures.

8. Deviations and exceptions. Deviations from and exceptions to these policies, procedures, and
related templates require the approval of the Secretary of Finance and Administration or the

303
December 15, 2022
System Administration, Work Breakdown Structure, and Policies_____________________
2.0 Unit 2—Work Break Down Structure and Policies
FIN 9 – Grants Management
Policies & Procedures FIN 9.2

Secretary's designee. More stringent or additional funding criteria and grant conditions are not
deviations or exceptions and, therefore, do not require approval by the Secretary or the
Secretary's designee. Deviations and exceptions will be evaluated upon the following criteria:

a. whether the underlying purposes of the policies, procedures, and related templates will be
adequately served through other means;

b. whether the programmatic needs of the State agency make compliance with the policies,
procedures, and related templates impracticable;

c. whether specific legal requirements of the State agency or Grantee make compliance with the
policies, procedures, and related templates impracticable; and

d. whether the requested deviation or exception is justified by other factors constituting good
cause as determined by the Secretary of Finance and Administration or the Secretary's
designee.

E. Applicability

All State agencies, unless specifically exempted by law.

F. Procedures

State Agency

1. Prepare the questionnaire or other form developed by COB to document compliance with uniform
funding criteria. Only upon COB's acknowledgement that requirements have been met should
State agency certify to the State Board of Finance for issuance of bonds or initiate a grant to a
grantee.

2. Use applicable template capital outlay grant agreement. More stringent or additional funding
criteria and grant conditions may be added in an Attachment A to the grant agreement. Such
more stringent or additional terms and conditions do not constitute deviations or exceptions and,
therefore, do not require approval by the Secretary or the Secretary's designee.

COB

1. Notify State agencies that received an appropriation for the same grantee and designate a lead
agency from among those agencies to coordinate the review of the grantee's compliance with the
applicable uniform funding criteria and interact with the grantee with regard to the prefunding
assessment of the grantee's compliance with the applicable uniform funding criteria.

2. Review submitted questionnaire or other form documenting compliance with uniform funding
criteria. Determine if submission is compliant. Notify State agency of determination.

3. Monitor compliance with requirements set out in the Policy and Procedures section.

Agency personnel create counting sheets for each event. These sheets are sorted by bin location and are used for recording
M – IN10 / 2
actual counts. They do not contain any "on-hand-quantities."

M – IN10 / 3 One employee counts quantity of items at each stock location, the other employee records the count on the count sheet.

M – IN10 / 4 An employee not involved in the actual count process enters count quantities into SHARE.

Agency personnel run the reconciliation report (INS 5050) showing adjustments to be made, i.e. differences between the
A – IN10 / 5
actual counts and the count shown in the system.

M – IN10 / 6 A recount is performed for all items with a difference by the Stores Supervisor.

FIN 11.2 Revenue Susceptible to Accrual

A. MAP Standard

To ensure that revenues are properly recognized, state agencies should accrue revenues.

B. Purpose

This policy establishes the criteria to be used for recording revenue.

C. Authority

NMSA 1978, §6-5-2


Codification of Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards – Governmental
Accounting Standards Board
Legislation Specific to state agency, Account(s), and/or Fund(s)

D. Policy

1. To meet management needs, meet federal reporting requirements, and comply with state law,
state agencies must recognize and record revenues.

2. State agencies should recognize and accrue revenues using either the accrual or modified accrual
basis, depending on the fund type:

a. Governmental Fund Types use the Modified Accrual Basis of accounting under which
revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they become susceptible to
accrual. Revenues become susceptible to accrual when they are:

i. Measurable – meaning that the sum of the forthcoming revenues can be readily
determined.

ii. Available – meaning (1) that the revenues legally can be used to finance current period
expenditures, and (2) that the revenues will be collected in the current period or soon
enough thereafter for use to pay liabilities of the current period. (The cut-off for revenue
recognition should not exceed ninety days.)

b. Proprietary Fund Types use the Accrual Basis of accounting and recognize revenues in the
accounting period in which they are earned and become measurable.

c. Fiduciary Fund Types use either the Modified Accrual or Accrual Basis to recognize
revenues on a basis consistent with the fund's accounting measurement objective.

i. Nonexpendable trust and pension funds should use the accrual basis.

ii. Expendable trust funds should adhere to the modified accrual basis.

FIN 11.3 Revenue Classification

A. MAP Standard

To ensure that revenue and related receivables are properly accounted for, Cash Receipt must be
properly classified and recorded in the accounting records.

B. Purpose

This policy establishes the requirement that state agencies classify Cash Receipts in accordance with
legal requirements, management needs, and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

C. Authority

NMSA 1978, §6-5-2


Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

D. Policy

1. State agencies shall accurately classify and record Cash Receipts to correctly recognize the
economic event that has taken place:

a. A receipt of revenue.

b. A reduction of Accounts Receivable.

c. A refund of Expenditures.

2. Recording a refund of an expenditure:

a. To record a refund made in the same fiscal year in which the money was received, state
agencies should use the same accounts as the original transaction, effectively reversing the
entry; providing the amount does not exceed $500.00. If the amount exceeds $500.00, the
agency should deposit the monies into Account 290900, “Receipts Held in Suspense”. The
agency must then submit a journal entry along with supporting documentation to reclassify
the amount in 290900 to the appropriate expenditure account.

b. To record a refund of a transaction that occurred in a previous fiscal year, state agencies
should not charge a current revenue or expenditure account, but should use
miscellaneous revenue or the same balance sheet account(s) used for the original transaction.

c. State agencies should contact FCD if they have questions concerning the appropriate
accounts to use.

d. To record a refund of a transaction that occurred in a previous fiscal year for a multi-year
appropriation that is still active, state agencies should charge the appropriate expenditure
account(s) used on the original transaction.

Rule 2.20.5 NMAC

D. Policy

1. Transactions occurring because of goods and/or services being provided by a state agency must
be timely recognized. These goods or services may be in the form of grant awards, contracts,
internal services (insurance, transportation, etc.) and/or unit sales (i.e., goods, including asset
transfers). These sales transactions are to be recognized by billing the customer upon the initial
transfer of goods or services from a state agency to another state agency or outside party.

2. Recognition of the sales transaction is to be recorded through the payment voucher process.
Requesting the federal funds and entering the deposit generates the appropriate accounting entries
and provides the basis for the recognition and recording of the revenue and for the transfer of
asset(s) related to the transaction.

3. Reconciliation of the sales transactions is to be conducted monthly by comparing the detail of


invoices, which have been generated to the accounts receivable aging schedule. If a state agency
is fully utilizing the SHARE Grants Module, it is to reconcile the billing originating from sales
transactions and recorded within the accounts receivable subsidiary schedule to the control
account for accounts receivable within the general ledger in SHARE. If a state agency is not
utilizing the SHARE Grants Module, reconciliation of the billing, accounts receivable and receipt
of monies shall be completed via processes approved by the Federal cognizant agency.

4. Collection of outstanding accounts receivable is the responsibility of the originating agency.

FIN 13.2 SHARE Interface Systems

There are approximately 124 agencies operating within the State of New Mexico for which some use
subsystems as a form of processing financial information, which interfaces with SHARE. The
following chart lists the type of current subsystems available for interface with SHARE:

Interface Type

Warrants Issued in a 3rd Party System Interface – warrants generated by an agency using a
1 third-party system, which interfaces into SHARE. Payees are not on the SHARE vendor file.
Interface is received in the form of a flat file journal import.
Payment Load Interface – used by SHARE to generate direct payments to payees not on the
SHARE vendor file (i.e. distribution payment vouchers) without having to create actual
2 payment vouchers. This interface is appropriate where multiple payees not in the SHARE
vendor file are being paid under an identical accounting string (account, fund, etc.). Interface
is received in the form of a flat file journal import.
3 Third-Party Deposits to the Fiscal Agent Bank Interface – NOT IN USE
All Transactions Outbound Interface – an outbound interface that provides data from
SHARE relating to the General Ledger, Accounts Payable, Purchasing, Grants, Deposits, and
4
warrant issuance. This is the mechanism, which provides REPORTS of activity within the
modules.
Flat File Journal Import – interfacing journal entries from a third-party system into SHARE
5 via the journal entry import method. Flat file is provided in Excel format and is imported
without requiring macro execution.
Journal Upload – interfacing journal entries from a third-party system into SHARE via the

A. Statement

This procedure addresses the document numbering convention that all state agencies that process
documents in SHARE must follow.

B. Procedure

State Agency

1. Follow the document numbering conventions when sending documents or forms to FCD for
processing.

A. State agencies have two options for numbering documents. The preferred option is using
SHARE’s automatic numbering functionality. SHARE will automatically assign a unique
eight-digit sequential document number for vouchers and a unique ten-digit sequential
document number for requisitions, purchase orders, and journal entries. The second option
allows a state agency to manually assign an eight-digit number to a voucher and a ten-digit
number for requisitions, purchase orders, journal entries, and journal entries. In the second
option agencies are responsible for maintaining an internal document numbering log.

B. Only alphanumeric characters and the following special characters, * / - $ %, may be used in
the document ID (e.g., purchase orders, journal entries, or vouchers). While PeopleSoft will
allow any character, the barcode technology used by the state imaging system will not
accommodate anything other than alphanumeric or the handful of special characters shown
above.

submitting the Signature/Transaction Authorization Form to FCD for approval. The form
indicates the individuals being given the authority to sign specific documents submitted to FCD
for approval and processing.

Orders, Operating Transfers/Journal Entries, Warrant Cancellations, and Payroll processed
through FCD. The CFO is still the agency’s point of contact for all communications from FCD;
however, in the event the CFO can’t be contacted, each agency will be allowed to designate one
(1) person for each document type. Ultimately, the CFO is still responsible for the agency’s
financial activities as outlined in Subsection C of 2.20.5.8 NMAC.

a. When the agency needs to contact DFA, they should begin with the appropriate
managers/supervisors of the bureau/unit first, then escalate to upper management when no
response if reciprocated.

FIN 17.3 Presentation of Land Grant Permanent Fund

A. MAP Standard

To ensure accuracy, state agencies must comply with GASB’s guidance on the accounting and
presentation of the Land Grant Permanent Fund.

B. Purpose

This policy establishes the requirement that state agencies are required to follow the procedures and
polices established by DFA for uniform standards.

C. Authority

NMSA 1978, §6-5-2

D. Policy

1. GASB guidance is that the primary government CAFR is the only true Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles (GAAP) financial statements.

2. A legal opinion indicates title to the land and corpus derived from the land are state assets with
resulting use and distribution to be compliant with the grant agreement

3. Nowhere in the State’s documented accounting policy has authorization been provided to state
sub-entities directing them to present this information in their financial statements.

a. Sub-entity represents the individual state agencies and universities as partial pieces of the full
reporting entity, the State of New Mexico as presented in its CAFR.

4. Guidance provided by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board generally does not allow
for presentation of beneficial interest in the assets of another governmental body as assets of the
reporting entity. GASB indicated that reporting entities which are sub-entities of the primary
government may present their share, as long as it was consistent across the entire entity.
However, given numerous state reporting entities, research indicates that there is one rational way
to report the LGPF to ensure sub-entity and CAFR financial statement consistency and supports
the concepts of relevance and understandability of the state’s collectively published statements.

5. Therefore, compliant with GASB guidance and to address the weaknesses identified above, the
Land Grant Permanent Fund (LGPF) shall be accounted for and reported as follows at the sub-
entity level:

a. The historical value of the donated federal land shall be reported as a General Capital Asset
by the Commissioner of Public Lands (COPL). No further allocation or distribution shall
occur and it will be carried into the primary government CAFR unchanged in amount and
characterization at year-end.

402
System Administration, Work Breakdown Structure, and Policies_____________________
2.0 Unit 2—Work Break Down Structure and Policies
FIN 17 – General Accounting Practices
Policies & Procedures FIN 17.3

b. At year-end, the Commissioner of Public Lands will account for, and transfer to, the
beneficiaries the value of royalties, rentals and deposits currently reported as assets held in
trust in a fiduciary fund. Entities receiving these assets shall report the incremental receipts
consistent with actual distributions. Only assets not belonging to the state are to be reported
as fiduciary assets. Depending on materiality, the inclusion of state assets in a fiduciary fund
could result in a modified or disclaimed audit opinion.

c. State Investment Council (SIC), as the state sub-entity responsible for managing the LGPF,
shall account for the LGPF, in its entirety, as an asset within a governmental fund. This data
shall roll-up into the CAFR unchanged at year-end. All other recipients shall cease reporting
the LGPF as an asset in their financial statements, as it will be reported by SIC. Compliant
with GASB 54 the fund balance shall be classified as restricted on SIC’s books.

d. LGPF beneficiaries shall only report their share of distributions in the financial statement and
the impact of any closing entries by the Commissioner of Public Lands that distributes
previously misclassified state assets held in trust. Beneficiaries may disclose their share of
assets held by SIC in a note disclosure.

e. The state’s CAFR shall be prepared by aggregating the sub-entity financial statements.

i. The CAFR shall report the value of land which will roll-up from the division-level COPL
report.

ii. The CAFR shall report the value of the LGPF that will be presented based on the nature
of the assets held and derived from the SIC financial statements. It will incorporate assets
unallocated and shown as assets held in trust by the Commissioner of Public Lands, if
applicable, and LGPF asset valuation adjustments value previously unallocated by SIC.

6. The approach described above is the preferred way to produce consistent division-level and
statewide CAFR financial statements that are relevant and support assigned accountability for
these assets. Specifically, parties interested in the LGPF may access that data by reviewing the
financial statements of the state sub-entity responsible for investing them, the State Investment
Council, which will report 100% of the assets or by referring to the State CAFR.

7. This change becomes effective with the fiscal year 2017 published financial statements.

E. Applicability

This policy applies to all state agencies.

A. MAP Standard

To ensure compliance, the Department of Finance and Administration (DFA) must have internal
controls for all aspects of payroll deductions due to vendors.

B. Purpose

This policy establishes requirements and procedures for deductions’ accounts payable due for each
pay period.

C. Authority

NMSA 1978, §10-9-17 (1961)

D. Policy

The DFA Central Payroll Bureau (CPB) shall produce all reports necessary for pay period accounts
payable, post SHARE HCM to the general ledger, and disburse all warrants due to employees and
vendors.

E. Applicability

This policy applies to all state agencies who process payroll through SHARE HCM.

F. Procedures

CPB

1. SHARE calculates biweekly payroll for pay period. SHARE calculates pay related to off-cycle
warrants (produced during the same pay period SHARE calculates biweekly payroll). Central
Payroll confirms payroll process is complete.

Note: Off-cycle warrants’ accounting entry produced during the same next regular bi-weekly
payroll.

2. Perform extract of credit entries (identify credit entries).

3. Generate reports and extract the Deduction Register (employee and employer data), Pay Register
(gross-to-net data), Payroll Summary (summarized employee and employer data), and third-party
interface data.

credit payment vouchers mitigates this problem.

11. Create credit file and run process to load credits into the voucher build table.

12. Run Voucher Build process in Financials.

13. Check for errors.

14. If errors, a SQL is prepared to make fund code corrections and is sent to DoIT so that they can
run the SQL. Once SQL is completed, re-run voucher build process.

15. Run Budget Check process.

16. Send B-Warrant amount to DFA IT MGR for validation.

17. If total B-Warrant amount matches DFA IT MGR amount, then the B-Warrants are printed.

HR 9.1 Payroll to General Ledger Process

A. MAP Standard

To ensure compliance, the Department of Finance and Administration (DFA) must have internal
controls for all aspects of payroll postings to the general ledger.

B. Purpose

This policy establishes requirements and procedures for recording and posting payroll journals for
each pay period.

C. Authority

NMSA 1978, §10-9-17 (1961)

D. Policy

1. After payroll process is complete, the DFA Central Payroll Bureau (CPB) shall retrieve payroll
data from SHARE HCM, and confirm completeness and accuracy.

2. The DFA CPB shall then process payroll journals, budget check, and post payroll data into the
general ledger in SHARE. Any errors discovered during the budget check and posting will be
resolved with the state agency prior to completion of posting.

E. Applicability

This policy applies to all state agencies who process payroll through SHARE HCM.

F. Procedures

CPB

1. HCM SHARE calculates biweekly payroll for on-cycle warrants within the same pay period.
Central Payroll confirms payroll process is complete.

2. Run PAYGL02A. The PAYGL02A job is run from HCM and generates the HR_ACCTG_LINE
in HCM and Financials.

3. Private queries are run to validate that the data is the same in HCM and Financials.

4. Private queries are run to review the HR_ACCT_LINE detail data where the budget dates do not
fall into the current pay period. This usually occurs due to payroll reversals from prior pay
periods. A SQL is prepared specifying the business unit, run date and the correct budget date and
accounting date that is applicable to the current pay period.

5. The Journal Generator Template is updated with the current payroll pay period end date, pay date
and description for the journal header and journal line fields.

523
System Administration, Work Breakdown Structure, and Policies_____________________
2.0 Unit 2—Work Break Down Structure and Policies
HR 9 – General Ledger
Policies & Procedures HR-9.1

6. Run the Journal Generation process (FS_JGEN).

7. Run the NMS_FIXACT10 app engine under System Process Requests to update the journal lines
with the ACTIVITY ID>10 digits to 15 digits.

8. Run the GL_JEDIT process to edit, budget check and post the payroll journals.

9. CPB works with state agencies CFO to resolve issues and correct journal entries. Re-run
GL_JEDIT for impacted journals.

10. Run NMS_JRNLS_NOT_POSTED_PR_SYS query to produce a list of all payroll journals that
were not posted due to budget or edit errors.

11. If errors occur where a fund/department comes across from HCM that does not belong to the
business unit, then the agencies default fund/department is applied to the PR Journal to correct
the invalid fund/department.  CPB also works with the state agency CFO to resolve funding
source issues.   Once the corrections have been made to the PR Journal then CPB runs an online
edit and post to the General Ledger.

G. Procedures for Child Support EFT (Electronic File Transfers)

Note: The Child support EFT’s are not sent to AP (Accounts Payable); therefore, a manual process
is done to post the Child Support EFT entries to AP.

1. A query is run by the Central Payroll Bureau that extracts the Child Support EFT payroll data.

2. The Child Support EFT file is saved in a shared drive by the CPB.

3. CPB prepares the documentation that goes out to all business units that have Child Support EFTs
in HCM and creates a file APMCSPXXX, XXX = sequential number, which then gets uploaded
as a CFR in SHARE Financials.

4. The Child Support EFT documentation is received by the DFA Financial Management Bureau for
review and posting of the data to the GL.
