Story aired May 22, 2013
State of your money: Missing State Property
• AOS believes that AM is moving the in right direction for reporting and tracking, but AM is only as good as the information we put into it.
• We will continue to report accurate information in AM and will continue to self report missing or stolen assets.
• Use the new EOY reports to track progress and monitor your positive and negative trends.
Asset Retirements
• Continue to consistently use the most accurate available retirement code for each retirement.
• Retirements will be processed in a timely manner• AOS expects that the agencies are maintaining the
paperwork for retirements and IUTs. • Close of any asset “graveyards” being used. • AOS and GMIS are in the process of developing a new
retirement code.– “Coded as asset in error” will be closely monitored in AM
by AOS
Financial Asset Managers (FAM)
• AOS will be refocusing on bringing AM issues to the FAM instead of the Data Entry staff
• FAMs are Quality Control in AM• Consider taking or retaking both AM classes to
better understand AM rules, requirements, and responsibilities
• Liaison between AM and other modules• Use the EOY reports to identify trends in AM
End of Year (EOY) Reporting
• AM Metrics – Tracking and posting information on every type of
AM transaction. – Encourage Executive level staff and FAMs to use the
information to monitor trends, identify trends, and allocate time and staff.
• Information is posted on the Encompass website• More information is available upon request– Everything in AM can be reported out of AM.
AM ToolsAOS cannot add additional time to the workday. Time will always be limited. It is the goal of GMIS and AOS to make sure that AMers can quickly and easily find the AM issues that require their attention. Once these AM transactions are identified, they will need to be reviewed, understood, and processed. Although that will always take time, the process for identifying these issues should not.
These tools were modeled off of the same reports and queries that AOS and GMIS use to monitor AM activity. In Fy 14, the agencies will have access to the same tools AOS uses.
AM ToolsAM Pagelets
• Daily Activity on
• The AM Pagelets show the all activity in the AM workflow and on the AM interfaces in a single location
• All AMers should already have these 8 pagelets customized
• AMers must understand how to resolve activity appearing on each of the 8 pagelets

• FAMs can use the pagelets to monitor the Entry staff

10 Rules of AM
The follow ten topics can be considered the fundamental building blocks of AM. Every AMer, whether they be new to the module or a veteran, should be able to answer these questions about how AM works and their roles in larger picture. Although some of the topics may seem remedial, in reviewing the AM activity from Fy 13, questions about these topics have lead to inconsistencies in AM from agency to agency.
These topics are neither all inclusive list of AM issues nor should it serve as a replacement for the training provided by GMIS. This list should serve a measuring stick for how well you know the concepts used in the AM module.
10 Rules of AM1.) Basic Add Page• What is the navigation for this page?• What do we use this page for?• What don’t we use this page for?• For manual adds into AM, how is the relationship between the acquisition date
and the trans date?• For manual adds into AM, how do we select the acctg date?• What role does the FAM play in asset additions?• Where can I monitor basic add information during the workflow process?
2.) Cost History Page• What is the navigation for this page?• What do we use this page for?• What don’t we use this page for?• How do I change information on the cost history page?

10 Rules of AM
4.) Interface-ables• What are interface-ables?• Where do interface-ables come from?• What are my responsibilities for the interfaces?• What order should the interfaces be processed in?• If there is a problem, what type of troubleshooting can I do on
the interfaces? • When is it acceptable to change the status on an interface-
able?• What is the easiest way to monitor interface activity?• If I find a non-asset interface-able, what do I do?
10 Rules of AM
5.) Tag Numbers• What is the tag number used for?• Should the tag number in AM match the
actual tag number on the asset?• Should every asset have a tag number?• How do I tag intangible assets like software?• There is a place on the PO to add tag numbers,
should I add them there?
10 Rules of AM
6.) Annual Comprehensive Inventory • What is the purpose of the annual inventory?• Do I really have to find every asset?• What do we do when we find an asset in AM that we cannot
find in real life?• What do we do when we find an asset in real life that we
cannot find in AM?• Can additional asset locations be added to AM?• Are there any AM tools available to assist with the inventory
process?• How does AOS recommend that we document our inventory?
10 Rules of AM
7.) Capital Improvement (CI) versus Preventative Maintenance (PM)• What is the difference between CI and PM?• Should PM or CI appear in AM?• What should I do if I find PM in AM?
10 Rules of AM
