Please share this message with all appropriate staff, including anyone who needs to complete a Trading Partner Agreement, as outlined below.
As Fiscal Year (FY) 2027 approaches, the following information is required for processing your Agency and/or Bureau payroll costs, charging payroll expenses, and accessing leave accrual queries in Datamart OAS.
FY Appropriations & Intra-Governmental Payment and Collection (IPAC) Charges:
The FY 2027 appropriations are effective Pay Period 2026-21, September 20 – October 3, 2026.
Agencies and/or Bureaus in Databases 1, 4, or 5: The Payroll Operations Division will process IPAC payroll charges based on the Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) pay date, which is the second Tuesday following the end of the Pay Period.
- Example: Pay Period 2026-21 IPAC payroll charges will be processed with the new appropriation on October 13, 2026.
Agencies and/or Bureaus in Databases 2 or 3: The Payroll Operations Division will process IPAC payroll charges based on the EFT pay date, which is the first Friday following the end of the Pay Period.
- Example: Pay Period 2026-21 IPAC payroll charges will be processed with the new appropriation on October 9, 2026.
Agency in Database 6: The Payroll Operations Division will process IPAC payroll charges based on the first business day of the month.
- Example: Pay Period 2026-11 IPAC payroll charges will be processed with the new appropriation on November 2, 2026.
FY 2027 Fund and Appropriation Changes
Trading Partner Agreement (TPA):
The Payroll Operations Division utilizes the Treasury IPAC system to charge agencies their payroll expenses. In order to do this, we require that agencies complete a TPA, which describes and outlines the two parties involved (Paying Agency and Billing Agency). Please note that the FY 2027 Fund and Appropriation Changes only lists agencies that will receive an IPAC. Some Bureaus may be rolled up into a parent organization; therefore, that Bureau would not be required to sign a TPA because the parent organization has that responsibility.
- Example: IN28 rolls up into the IN06 parent organization, so only one TPA is required from the parent organization.
ACTION REQUIRED BY SEPTEMBER 18: Please complete the TPA “Paying Agency” information under the “Parties to the Agreement,” “Accounting Data,” and “Approvals” sections. The agreement should be emailed to Michelle Blackmon at Michelle_D_Blackmon@ibc.doi.gov by September 18. If you have any questions regarding the TPA, contact Michelle Blackmon at Michelle_D_Blackmon@ibc.doi.gov or 303-969-5649.

Leave Accrual Queries in Datamart OAS:
If you use the Datamart Oracle Analytics Server (OAS) to access the Sick and Annual Leave Reports for FY accrual information, please run your queries between September 25 – October 3.
ACTION REQUIRED BETWEEN SEPTEMBER 25 – OCTOBER 3: Queries must be performed at the end of processing for Pay Period 2026-20, but before the end of processing for Pay Period 2026-21 (i.e. between September 25 – October 3).
