The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Fiscal Management Information System (FMIS) is an application used by the U.S. Department of Transportation to manage requests for federal funding of client transportation projects. To be eligible for federal reimbursement, a project must be obligated in FMIS. The FMIS Project Extract and Approved Project Load processes in Advantage will facilitate the following:
Identify project funding requests for federal transportation projects in Advantage from new pending Project budget transactions and other cost accounting set up information.
Compile these data into project obligation requests as defined by FMIS and generate XML file for submission to the FMIS application’s interface.
Extract the approval result from the XML file received from FMIS application pertaining to project status and update Advantage with defined data. Further, move the project budget transaction to Final.
The Project information needed by FHWA for obligation request in FMIS application is stored in multiple setup pages listed below:
Program (PROG)
Program Phase (PHPRG)
Program GIS Location (PGL)
Funding Profile (FPRFLST)
FHWA Improvement Type (IMPTYP)
Program Status (PSTAT)
County - Address Information (CTY)
