TRANSFORMATION
2002: SAP ERP Implementation
• Treasury was determined to be out of scope.
• New system and account code structure were adopted by the Administration.
• Result: Comptroller was required to maintain legacy account code and cross
walk tables to communicate with the State Treasury system, perpetuating the
paper process between SAP and Treasury.
2009: Comptroller Consolidation and Further Automation of Processes
• A paperless invoice process and revenue collection process was implemented,
but the State Treasurer and Auditor General systems still required paper.
• Result: Agreement was reached to share Comptroller’s document repository to
eliminate scanning of paper in Treasury.
2010: Developed Framework for Automated Revenue Process
2014: Finalized Automation with State Treasurer’s Implementation of PeopleSoft
• Result: Electronic files replaced paper handling, revenues were recorded more
quickly, and the manual keying of data at Treasury was eliminated.
