How ENPET works

  1. Using FinancialLink's Ledger Reviewer, the financial manager selects transactions to transfer.
  2. The system evaluates the transactions for risk and assigns them to one of 4 categories.
  3. The system prompts the user for specific explanations based on risk level and for the e-mail addresses of reviewers.
  4. E-mail documents are created and sent to reviewers and the initiator.
  5. Based on the risk category, the IFIS journal voucher document is created with the appropriate approval template.
    • If high risk, documents are routed to the Office of Post Award Financial Services (OPAFS) to ensure the adequacy of the justification and the e-mail reviewer notifications.
    • If low risk, documents are completed within the department.
  6. OPAFS conducts post-transaction audits to ensure that departments are maintaining the required supporting documentation for all ENPET transactions and that low-risk transactions have been properly approved and adequately justified.
  7. ENPETS will be purged on a monthly basis.
