AFPS supports both Human Capital and Budget Performance Integration initiatives by allowing the department to manage human resources costs against budgeted costs. AFPS fills this performance gap as it provides payroll and cost accounting services to the entire Department, and is the payroll interface between the payroll system (DFAS) and the accounting systems - the HHS Unified Financial Management System (UFMS) and the remaining legacy accounting systems. The AFPS provides a systematic interface of payroll accounting information necessary to account for disbursements, obligations, and accruals for personnel costs; generates accounting transactions; and, produce detailed expenditure control reports. The AFPS is in the steady-state phase of its life-cycle and will be fully integrated into the HHS UFMS as it is deployed throughout the Department.The Accounting for Pay System (AFPS) is scheduled to be integrated into the HHS Unified Financial Management System (UFMS) in FY07 although the budget for AFPS will continue separately through 2010. Continued operation of AFPS is required to provide accounting and financial management services to the PSC and its customer agencies.

Provide this information in the format of the following table. For detailed guidance regarding components, please refer to http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/egov/.
Component: Use existing SRM Components or identify as NEW. A NEW component is one not already identified as a service component in the FEA SRM.
Reused Name and UPI: A reused component is one being funded by another investment, but being used by this investment. Rather than answer yes or no, identify the reused service component funded by the other investment and identify the other investment using the Unique Project Identifier (UPI) code from the OMB Ex 300 or Ex 53 submission.

External reuse is one agency within a department reusing a service component provided by another agency in another department. A good example of this is an E-Gov initiative service being reused by multiple organizations across the federal government.
Funding Percentage: Please provide the percentage of the BY requested funding amount used for each service component listed in the table. If external, provide the funding level transferred to another agency to pay for the service.
