Federal Agencies' Centralized Trial-Balance System II
Reporting Window Schedule
Updated October 27, 2004
The Revision Period--The primary purpose of the FACTS II revision period is to make FACTS II consistent with amounts in the prior-year column of the Budget. You should use the revision period to correct errors; you should not view the revision period as providing you extra time to verify your data. You must provide revisions for both material and non-material amounts. The senior management at your agency and your auditors will determine whether revisions will require a restatement of the agency Statement of Budgetary Resources (SBR) or require footnotes to explain the differences in the SBR and your FACTS II submissions. You can refer to OMB Circular A-11 section 82.15 for more information about revisions.

Note: During each quarter window, users may add supplementals to the previous quarter's submission. For
example, during Quarter 2, a supplemental may be added to the Quarter 1 submission. The same applies to
Quarters 3 and 4. For Quarter 1, however, a supplemental cannot be added for the previous Quarter 4
submission. Instead, a revision period is typically granted by OMB in January for the previous quarter. In
addition, for Quarters 1, 2, 3, and 4, agencies may add supplementals for their current quarter.
