The SAAM to WAAM crosswalk is currently in progress. This crosswalk will continue to be updated to ensure all sections in SAAM are cross walked to WAAM or, if not cross walked, an explanation will be provided
Agencies are encouraged to review these chapters and submit questions or comments here so updates can be considered prior to finalizing WAAM and before Workday go-live. Statewide Accounting is still reviewing the chapters for spelling and grammar.
