Action Required: Submit Invoices by December 3, 2026
Beginning December 17, 2026, the State of Florida will be transitioning from its legacy financial management system to a new financial management system. As part of this transition, there will be a period when state agency finance and accounting offices will be unable to issue vendor payments. Specifically, agencies will be unable to issue payments from the state’s financial management system (i.e., the system will be offline) during the Christmas and New Year holidays, as well as the first full week in January 2027.
Critical Deadlines: Agencies must enter all payments in the current financial management system by December 17, 2026; therefore, the date for submitting complete and accurate invoices to our agency will be December 3, 2026, to allow time for internal review, approval and processing.
Providers currently doing business with the Florida Department of Education must work closely with your assigned contract manager or identified point of contact to confirm and meet all submission deadlines to ensure invoices are paid before the scheduled downtime. In addition, you must submit complete and accurate invoices (i.e., payable invoices) by the date above to ensure timely processing and payment. As a reminder, submitting timely and accurate invoices is entirely within your control as a provider doing business with the State of Florida.
If you follow the guidance from your contract manager or point of contact and provide payable invoices by the established deadline, you will be paid timely. If you fail to submit timely and accurate invoices, you will likely have a delay in payment as the agency will be unable to begin issuing payments until the new financial management system is available starting the week of January 11, 2027. Please do your part to ensure you submit timely and accurate invoices.
