This week, as part of our CEFMS II module breakdown series, we're breaking down the Integrated Manning Document, or, IMD, a new module which significantly helps the Finance Center keep track of personnel and positions at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, leading to a smoother process of managing these positions.

CEFMS II is one of the core programs used to help manage the financial operations of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, serving as a consolidated site for several financial functions of the Corps. Each week, we'll be breaking down a new or upcoming CEFMS II module to give you a better idea of how it works, and how it serves the Corps.

Here's this month's schedule! Make sure to follow our page so you don't miss out!

Would you like to set up a location to make credit card payments via pay.gov? We've got you covered! We're currently working with Treasury to allow sites Corps-wide to accept credit card payments on pay.gov.

The process includes a detailed package of forms which must be filled out by the requesting location. After receipt, Treasury estimates 3-4 months before the service is available, and we plan on submitting 3-4 packages per month.
