USAS Coding Instructions
30 Contract Profile
Agency defined. The Contract Profile (30) screen is used to define and establish controls for contract reporting. Creating this profile is the first step to monitor and track contracts by contract number, appropriation year and vendor/payee. The 30 profile includes a budget check indicator to ensure that contract expenditures do not exceed the budgeted contract amount. This is an optional profile within the USAS system.
Note: There is no system edit to ensure inclusion of the contract number on a transaction.

This profile is included in the annual USAS profile rollover. Profile rollover creates new profile records to be used in the next fiscal year (FY) and appropriation year (AY) based on existing profile records for the current FY and AY.

Enter the 11-digit primary vendor/payee number. The primary vendor/payee number must be either a valid TINS or USAS vendor/payee number. USAS vendor/payee numbers start with a zero and cannot be used to process payment-generating transactions. TINS vendor/payee numbers start with 1, 3 or 7.

The mail code identifies the vendor/payee’s mailing address or electronic payment routing instructions for payment distribution. A single vendor/payee may have multiple mail codes. For contract edit purposes, a blank mail code on the 30 screen represents all valid mail codes for the specified vendor/payee.
MULTI VENDOR (System generated)
Displays a value of Y (Yes) when additional vendors/payees for a contract have been set up on the 30B profile. The additional vendors/payees will be displayed on the 30B screen. A value of N (No) indicates that there is a single vendor/payee.
Note: A 30 screen cannot be deleted if there are multiple vendors/payees on the 30B screen. The 30B screen must be deleted before deleting the 30.

CNTRCT END DATE (Optional)
Enter the eight-digit contract end date (MMDDYYYY), which identifies the date that the contract terminates. An end date must be entered if a start date is entered, or if the agency sets up the service date edit severity indicator to check a transaction’s service date.
Note: Payments on a contract can be made later than the contract end date as long as the effective end date for the profile is still in the future.
SERVDT EDIT (Required to add new record)
Enter the one-character service date edit severity indicator. This field allows users to choose the level of severity for an edit between a transaction’s service date and the specified 30 screen record’s CNTRCT STRT DATE and CNTRCT END DATE.
| I | Ignore – During transaction processing, no edit is performed between the service date on the transaction and the CNTRCT STRT DATE and CNTRCT END DATE on the 30 screen. |
|---|---|
| W | Warning – If a value of W is entered in the SERV DT EDIT field and the transaction edit indicator SVDT field on the Transaction Code Decision Profile (28A) has a value of Blank (optional), R or I, then USAS performs an edit between the transaction service date and the CNTRCT STRT DATE and CNTRCT END DATE. If the transaction service date is not within the range defined by the CNTRCT STRT DATE and CNTRCT END DATE, USAS issues a warning error message on the transaction and allows the transaction to continue processing. |
| F | Fatal – If a value of F is entered in the SERV DT EDIT field and the transaction edit indicator SVDT field on the 28A screen has a value of Blank (optional), R or I, then USAS performs an edit between the transaction service date and the CNTRCT STRT DATE and CNTRCT END DATE. If the transaction service date is not within the range defined by the CNTRCT STRT DATE and CNTRCT END DATE, USAS issues a fatal error message during transaction entry and stops the transaction from posting. |
Note: If a value of W or F is entered in this field, the CNTRCT STRT DATE and CNTRCT END DATE are required fields on the 30 screen.
STATUS CODE (Optional)
Enter the one-character status code.
| A | Active (Default) |
|---|---|
| I | Inactive |
Note: The status code may be used in lieu of deleting a profile record to prevent the system from using the profile record for system processing. Set the status to I to inactivate profiles no longer in use.
EFF START DATE (Optional)
Enter the eight-digit effective start date (MMDDYYYY), which identifies when the information established on the profile record becomes accessible for system processing. Leaving this field blank causes the vendor/payee number to become immediately available for system processing, and the effective start date defaults to the current date.
EFF END DATE (Optional)
Enter the eight-digit effective end date (MMDDYYYY), which identifies when the profile record is no longer accessible for system processing. Leaving this field blank causes the profile to have no effective end date; therefore, any system processing using the profile record will not be restricted by the effective end date.
LAST PROC DATE (System generated)
Displays the last process date. The system defaults to the last date (MMDDYYYY) that any online modification (add or change) was made to the profile record.
