The State of New York
Overview of State Payments
State payment practices are inefficient– 63.29% of our transactions that are eligible to be paid by credit card
are $250 or less – representing 1.34% of the dollars spent– 39.14% of these payments are under $67 – representing 0.28% of the
dollars spent– We had one 1 cent payment– We had 881 of these payments under $1– Processing a traditional voucher costs at least $67 a transaction
Agencies could free up resources for more significant issues, such as contracts or other financial management practices
WE CAN’T KEEP OPERATING THIS WAY!
5
The State of New York
Traditional Control Systems
Our traditional control systems are designed to prevent problems
– Purchase request– Purchase order– Invoice– Receiving report– Voucher
This system is costly, inefficient and frustrates State employees trying to do their jobs
Ultimately, we have a costly system to control minutiae
6
The State of New York
Updated Control Systems
For small dollar purchases we need to move from prevention controls to detection controls
– Budget to operating unit– Credit cards to program staff who need to make purchases – not just
finance office staff– Smart cards to limit unrestrained spending– Data analysis to identify improper purchases looking for trends,
patterns or outliers– Disciplinary action targeted to cardholder abusers – including possible
prosecution. Leave the good people alone!

Similar to an organization chart for your agency
Hierarchy is the foundation for your program
Defines report recipients
Multiple billing accounts are not necessary, as there are no limits to the number of cardholders on an account
If cardholders are setup in the wrong hierarchy you will not be able to move those cardholders or change the hierarchy until the cycle cut
To obtain a hierarchy setup form, e-mail a request including your agency code(s) to creditcard@ogs.state.ny.us
Hierarchy
11
The State of New York
Hierarchy
The Travel and Procurement Cards each have a separate hierarchy
State Agencies and Other Authorized entities using the State contract have separate hierarchies
Foundations for four hierarchies have been established– New York State Agencies - Procurement Card– New York State Agencies - Travel Card– New York State Other Authorized Users - Procurement Card– New York State Other Authorized Users - Travel Card
