<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Higher Education Vendor File Conversion Manual has been completed and OMES has finalized all of the changes being made to the vendor file interface process used by Higher Ed agencies using the state vendor file (currently only applicable
to OU Health Science Center). <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The changes implemented allow additional control over employee banking used for reimbursements<span style="color:#1F497D">.</span> Each Higher Ed agency will now have the ability to create a unique agency specific address/location which
would only be able to be added or modified by their agency. OUHSC is currently testing the new process and it will be in effect in July.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow">Additional planning and development is also in process for the agencies maintaining their employee banking information with the Office of State Treasurer. Communications and instructions
for these agencies will be issued at a later date</span>. These agencies should complete the steps to prepare their vendor file, but will be scheduled for conversion after the development of their employee EFT interface process has been completed.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Attached you will find the completed Higher Education Vendor File Conversion Manual. Each agency should complete the Conversion Application to include their agency information and choices of FY 17 or FY 18 conversion dates and return to
OMES Vendor Registration <a href="mailto:Victoria.Baker@omes.ok.gov">Victoria.Baker@omes.ok.gov</a> by August 15, 2016.
