Business Event Type Code(BETC)FACTSHEETWhat is a BETC?The BETC is an 8 character code used in the GWA system to indicate the type of activity being reported, such as payments, collections, borrowings etc. This code must accompany the Treasury Account Symbol (TAS) and the dollar amounts in order to classify the transaction against the fund balance with Treasury. BETC in effect replaces the transaction codes and standard sub-classes that are currently used on the central accounting reports, such as those used on the Statements of Transactions (FMS Form 224) and the Undisbursed Ledger and Trial Balance Reports (FMS Forms 6653 and 6654). How many are there?There are approximately 250 BETCs currently identified in the GWA system. About half of those BETCs are related to Non-Expenditure, Borrowing, and Warrant transactions. Since those types of transactions are processed directly in the GWA system through their applicable GWA modules, those BETCs are automatically assigned behind the scenes within each GWA module. The other half of the BETCs are related to Payment and Collection transactions. Those BETCs will be reported through interfacing systems, such as IPAC. This means that agencies will be required to provide those payment and collection BETCs when reporting transactions through the interfacing systems.
