The State Administrative & Accounting Manual, also known as SAAM, provides control and accountability over financial and administrative affairs of the state of Washington, and assists agencies in gathering and maintaining information needed for the preparation of financial statements.

The policies and procedures in this manual are the minimum requirements that state agencies must meet. An agency may adopt additional policies and procedures in greater detail as long as the agency meets the required minimum standards.

In an effort to conserve resources and save paper, OFM no longer provides paper copies for your hard copy State Administrative & Accounting Manual (SAAM).

This page is intended for SAAM policy holders to print replacement pages, double-sided, for their hard copy manual. OFM encourages the use of the online version of SAAM. This page is updated frequently and as new policies are issued, old replacement pages are removed.

This page contains SAAM directives and technical corrections and is intended to be used as an agency resource for tracking policy changes and updates. Current policies are available on the SAAM main page.
