Statewide Chart of Accounts Design

The Florida PALM Chart of Accounts (COA) was originally approved in 2020 and updated by the Project as part of the design activities for the Financials Wave Implementation. The Florida PALM COA establishes a standard structure for tracking and recording financial transactions. It is comprised of individual ChartFields, like the use of data elements in FLAIR, some of which are established and maintained at a statewide level and others which are agency-specific. The COA Design evolved and was refined through iterative and collaborative work with Department of Financial Services (DFS) Divisions and Offices, agencies, and enterprise partners and is applicable for all Waves.
