center to which an employee’s salary is to be charged. It is also used by the NFC to group
individual salary charges by location on the ASPM.

staff member at their location. The Accountant provides a list to the appropriate T&A clerk and
to the local Human Resource office containing each staff member’s name, title, and accounting
classification code.
This list is to be revised as employees transfer in and out of FPI or as they are transferred
between cost centers at the same location. The T&A clerk is to use these codes when
entering payroll data into GovTA.
b. The Accountant is to review T&As quarterly to ensure the correct accounting classification
codes are being used.
