CURRENT DATE (Control key – Required)
Enter the eight-digit current date (MMDDYYYY). The month must be from 01 to 12, and the day must be from 01 to 31.

TITLE (Required to add new record)
Enter the current date title (MONTH D(D), YYYY), followed by the day of the week.

NEXT EFF DATE (Required to add new record)
Enter the eight-digit next effective date (MMDDYYYY). It must be greater than the current date and should be the next date a normal batch cycle is run.
For example: If the current date is 10022021 (Saturday), then the next effective date is 10042021 (Monday), the first working day following the weekend.
TYPE OF DAY (Required to add new record)
Enter the one-character type of day indicator.
| W | Weekday. USAS cycle will run. |
|---|---|
| E | Weekend. USAS cycle will not run. |
For example: The type of day for 10022021 is E (Weekend).
Note: A value of E is also used to indicate a weekday holiday with no USAS cycle.
FISCAL MONTH (Required to add new record)
Enter the two-digit fiscal month, which must be from 01 to 13 (with 01 for September and 12 for August). The 13th fiscal period is allowed for year-end adjustments and accruals.
For example: The fiscal month for 10022021 is 02.
FISCAL YEAR (Required to add new record)
Enter the two-digit fiscal year (FY). An FY is a 12-month period used to identify the accounting year. FYs are used in GAAP-based reports. The FY for the state of Texas begins Sept. 1 and ends Aug. 31.
For example: The FY for 10022021 is 22.
FISCAL JULIAN (Required to add new record)
Enter the three-digit fiscal Julian day. It must be between 001 and 366.
For example: The fiscal Julian date for 10022021 is 032.
DIR DEP PMT DEADLINE (Required to add new record)
Enter the eight-digit date (MMDDYYYY) that is needed to achieve CURRENT DATE settlement of direct deposit payments. This date is used for payments to determine when the system should transmit direct deposit payments electronically to the bank in order to settle by the CURRENT DATE. This date also represents the cycle date by which the payment transaction must be error-free, fully approved and posted.
For example: The direct deposit payment deadline for 10022021 is 09302021.
Note: Direct deposit payments do not settle on weekends or holidays (TYPE OF DAY is E). This field is populated on those days for other programming purposes.
WARRANT DIST DATE (Required if type of day is weekday)
Enter the eight-digit date (MMDDYYYY), which identifies when the warrant will be available for distribution, if generated in the CURRENT DATE cycle. This is the date that will appear on the warrant and will also function as the end date for late payment interest calculation for warrants.
For example: The warrant distribution date for 10042021 is 10052021. The WARRANT DISTRIBUTION DATE for 10022021 is blank since the TYPE OF DAY is E (weekend).
WEEK (Required to add new record)
Enter the one-character week-end indicator.
| Y | Yes. The current date is the end of the week. |
|---|---|
| N | No. The current date is not the end of the week. |

QUARTER (Required to add new record)
Enter the one-character quarter-end indicator.
| Y | Yes. The current date is the end of the quarter. |

Enter the one-character year-end indicator.
| Y | Yes. The current date is the end of the year. |
|---|---|
| N | No. The current date is not the end of the year. |

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.
Function Key Definitions
