USE OF MANUAL

If questions arise about the Nebraska Information System operation, DAS Accounting staff is available to provide assistance and guidance to all State agencies. The system can only be a valuable asset if the data, which each agency has responsibility for, is correctly processed and maintained. Please do not hesitate to contact DAS Accounting about any problems which are encountered.

SYSTEM MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY

Overall responsibility for the management and control of the Nebraska Information System resides with the Director of the Department of Administrative Services. Direct NIS supervision is provided by the Nebraska Accounting Administrator. The Director of DAS State Personnel is responsible for establishing and maintaining the Salary Schedule and Job Classification Data Bases and for providing classification codes to non-classified agencies.

The Operations Manager is responsible for daily administration of the Nebraska Information System. He reports directly to the Accounting Administrator.

STATE ACCOUNTING: The primary responsibility of State Accounting is to assist the user agencies to use NIS most effectively. This office coordinates and controls the processing of NIS source documents. It is also responsible for the preaudit of all payroll batches to be sure they are in accordance with appropriate State law.

State Accounting works with all agencies on the correction of input errors. The system itself provides error reports which list input into the system and identify erroneous transactions.
