What's New

New go-live date for GA@WORK is July 1

After careful consideration and collaboration, the GA@WORK go-live date has been moved from April 1, 2026, to July 1, 2026. While the work isn’t slowing down, the additional quarter will provide valuable time to complete comprehensive testing, data conversion and cutover activities.  

It’s important to note that the new timeline will align more effectively with Finance and Procurement operations, allowing for the full reconciliation and closeout of FY26 in TeamWorks. As a result, all FY27 transactions will be processed exclusively in GA@WORK. The training timeline will also adjust with the new go-live date, and those details will be shared as they unfold.  

As new developments regarding the timeline and planned activities arise, they will be shared here, as well as through upcoming stakeholder meetings and other communication channels. Please stay tuned for updates.

See the updated timeline below.

What’s Next  

Final Townhall of 2025 set for Nov. 18  

The NextGen Project Team will be hosting a NextGen Project Townhall for Agency Heads and key agency leadership roles on Tuesday, Nov. 18 from 3 - 4 p.m. NextGen Project Leadership will provide updates about the new timeline, training, Super Users and more.  

 

Sup Org validation starts Nov. 17

Identified Agency Supervisory Organization Reviewers have been asked to participate in validating their agency's Supervisory Organizations (Sup Orgs) in GA@WORK. In this round of review, Sup Org structures are based on data as of Aug. 30, 2025.

Reviewers will have access to review their Sup Orgs for updates or corrections from Nov. 17 - Dec. 12. 

 

AP/AR inbox standardization due by end of year

CFOs were recently asked to create dedicated inboxes for both their Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable teams by Dec. 31. 

Creating and using dedicated inboxes will improve communications efficiency from GA@WORK to accounting teams and alleviate any confusion associated with turnover.  

If you haven’t already submitted your dedicated inbox, please use this form to submit.

New FDM mapping request includes FY26 activity, confirmations needed  

Agency Finance teams will be asked soon to review the latest updates in Foundation Data Model (FDM) mapping for their agencies.  

FDM mapping involves matching TeamWorks chartfields with the appropriate GA@WORK Worktags. This round of updates includes FY26 activity.  

Stay tuned for messages from [email protected] for more information and the deadline.  

 

You Oughta Know

Payroll Costing Allocations request due Nov. 20  

CFOs and Payroll Partners have been asked to compare payroll costing allocations in reports from TeamWorks and GA@WORK and note any differences so they can be corrected. This request is due Thursday, Nov. 20.  

Payroll costing allocations show how payroll expenses are assigned to each employee. These allocations help make sure payroll costs are associated with the correct grant or project. If the allocations aren’t accurate, it could impact grant compliance, reporting and overall financial accuracy after go-live.
