1100.02 TRANSACTION TRACKING ACCESS AND NAVIGATION

Change #1-2009
May 1, 2009
Transaction Tracking Inquiry (SLTR) allows transactions keyed through the SLUP and SLSE processes to be viewed immediately after keying. Any updates to a Food and Nutrition Services (FNS) case from a mass change, the Enterprise Program Integrity Control System (EPICS), or automatic corrections may be viewed and are identified by the User ID. The maximum number of transactions displayed is 200, and the transactions are sorted from the most recent to the oldest. Up to three years of transactions are available. To narrow your search, you may enter a county number within your Case ID or User ID search. The User ID may be your RACF ID number, EPICS, MASSCHG (Mass Change), or DIRM (automatic corrections). A start date must be entered or a complete date range (start and end date).
Up to three years of transactions are available, once three years has been accumulated.
