This daily pre-note process allows for all new and certain changes (ie - account numbers) to direct deposits to be sent over to Treasury each day. The turnaround time is 8 (eight) banking days, so almost two weeks for a pre-note to become valid. That means if you create a new direct deposit on the P070 by November 13th that person should get a direct deposit on November 29th. We have updated the website to include the new template and are providing the link here: http://www.oregon.gov/DAS/EGS/FBS/OSPS/docs/form/osps.99.25.pdf Thanks, Seth Lewis Senior System Analyst DAS/EGS/FBS/Oregon Statewide Payroll Services 503.373.0259 - direct 503.378.3518 - fax seth.lewis at state.or.us Visit Our Online Resource Center: State of Oregon: Oregon Statewide Payroll Services -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
