ECS is a web-based invoice certification system
developed by DFAS Cleveland that provides the capability for
authorized Department of Defense (DoD) personnel to approve/certify
vendor pay invoices electronically for payment through the Standard
Accounting and Reporting System - One Bill Pay (STARS-OBP).
Electronic invoices or vouchers (EDI 810CI or 810V) are submitted
via a Value Added Network (VAN) or through the DFAS Web Invoicing
System (WInS) to the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Automated
Addressing Service Center (DAASC), which translates the 810 into a
file layout accepted by ECS.
ECS notifies the responsible certifying official
to perform certification and then forwards the certified invoice to
STARS-OBP. ECS uses Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) technology to
provide authentication of DoD personnel. ECS allows for approval by
the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) prior to certification, as
well as the ability to securely upload supporting documentation
files (via https://) directly from the desktop into ECS where the
files become a permanent part of the approval/certification
decision process. These files can then be retrieved for reference,
review, or downloading to the user's desktop with a simple mouse
click. ECS was built to replace the Standard Electronic Processing
System (SEPS) certification system, which was phased out in
FY03.
